It’s Disney Wish Embarkation day! In this exciting Disney Cruise Line Vlog, my friend Gary C and I leave Walt Disney World to board the Disney Wish at the Disney Cruise Line terminal in Port Canaveral Florida. During this three night sailing, we share our reviews, hints and tips from our time onboard. Travelling from the United Kingdom, we have never been so excited to experience a Disney Cruise and vlog it for you.

In this Disney Wish Embarkation Day vlog, Gary and I awake in Walt Disney World’s Pop Century resort as part of our land and sea holiday. From WDW, we take the Disney Cruise Line transfer to the dedicated Disney Cruise Line terminal at Port Canaveral in east Florida USA. The round-trip cost for this transfer was $80.00 pp. Upon arriving at the port, we head to the Inspire Diagnostics testing center and check-in to our Safe Passage profile to confirm our tests are negative! At that point, we are ‘clear to sail!’
We vlog the experience of checking in and boarding the ship at the terminal. Specifically, from an international (British) perspective. USA residents have a slightly smoother passage, UK residents however, will need to go upstairs and to the check-in desks on the left inside the cruise terminal. Here you’ll need to present your passport, ESTA confirmation, flight information (or stamp in passport to prove when you entered the country) and your port arrival form.
Upon boarding the Disney Wish, we enter the beautiful atrium, otherwise known as the Grand Hall. Here we meet the beautiful Lady Lenora, as she welcomes us to the Disney Wish with a special wishing ceremony. Not only that, Flynn Rider and Rapunzel are there to greet us too! Our first stop then, is the Youth Activities spaces during their open house (the kids clubs). We tour the Oceaneer Club (3-11) It’s A Small World Nursery (6 months – 3 years), Edge (11-14), Vibe (14 – 17) and the Hero Zone (all ages at times).
Throughout this Disney Cruise Line embarkation day vlog, we show you how to get a reservation for the Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge, where to go to get dining reservations for the signature adult dining onboard (Enchante and Palo Steakhouse), as well as how to navigate the ship with it’s new layout. The layout is quite different from the Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, Disney Magic and Disney Wonder, but after a couple of days, we did manage to find our way around pretty well.
We are staying in a Deluxe Family Oceanview with Verandah. This stateroom was located on deck 10, mid-ship, port-side (near the aft stairwell) on one of the ‘bump outs.’ We give you a full room tour of our stateroom, including a look at the split bathroom, wardrobe space, bed, Moana theme, sofa bed, balcony, dresser and pull down bed.
We also check out the Cove Cafe, the adult only area, the Bayou bar, Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge, Luna, Keg and Compass, the Enchanted Sword Cafe and more. For dining, we have lunch at Marceline Market where we give you our review compared to Cabanas buffet on the other ships and for dinner; we dine at 1923 (Walt Disney). There we enjoy a four course meal with appetiser, soup, entree and dessert.
Watch for a full tour of the Senses Spa, including the facials treatment room, ‘The Hideaway’ for couples massages and the Rainforest Room, complete with outdoor space with hot tubs.
As for entertainment, we get to enjoy some of the musicians and singers around the ship, the Set Sail on a Wish deck party (let’s set sail/ sail away party), Lady Lenora and Lord Leopold, the Grand Hall kiss goodnight and Disney Seas the Adventure.
