#Disney cruise line movie#

We could find seats at the movie theater. With the pool being a major attraction, the rest of the ship never felt crowded.

WeВ hadВ previously done two Mediterranean cruises and the ship was perfect for those warm-weather destinations. I appreciate that you add different European itineraries every year. This one showed two parks and a pedestrian street, but that was an exception. The Disney Magic Port Map for Kristiansand, Norway. And I fully understand that these maps are funded by the advertisers on there, but what are you getting from them вЂ“ a few hundred dollars? A thousand dollars? TheВ passengers on our 12-night Disney Magic cruise paid at least $6 million (my rough aggregated estimate) to sail with you.В That passenger revenue should be prioritized/recognized over the tiny amount ofВ port advertising revenue. It wouldnвЂ™t cost you any more to print a good map instead of a bad map, except for a little bit of initial research. This is typical on a Disney cruise вЂ“ a very basic map with lots of wasted space. Have a list of the top 20 family-friendly local restaurants (per TripAdvisor or Yelp) and note those on the map.Д¬heck out the map below. What if you made these handouts really good guides to the cities for the people who wish to wander around town? Map out all of the kid-friendliest walking destinations. Very fewВ of the maps showed pedestrian walking areas or parks. And every guide/map on our three cruises wasВ terrible. Port MapsД®very night in our cabin, thereВ wasВ a Port Shopping Guide and Map for the next dayвЂ™s destination. A little sound dampening would go a long way. In LumiereвЂ™s while in port in Reykjavik, the dining room was 2/3 empty and still it was hard for five of us to hold a conversation at our table. Have you satВ in one of your dining rooms and attempted to hold a conversation? Disney does a good job on every cruise of matching us with another family, but itвЂ™s hard to talk since the rooms get so noisy. Given that you have sharper knives in the other restaurants, with real serrations, IвЂ™m not sure why you restrict Cabanas to butter spreaders? Do people get so annoyed at the overcrowding that they start looking at the knives as weapons? Towards the end of the tripВ weВ purchased disposableВ plastic knivesВ in one of the ports and brought them to CabanasВ for breakfasts and lunches, greatly improving our ability to actually cut food.Д®ating breakfast outside on a cold, rainy morning on the Disney Magic Noise We tried to cut through a lime one day and couldnвЂ™t do it. There is no difference between the top edge of the knife and the bottom. One more comment on Cabanas: the knives are terrible.

Jimmy Buffet and Bob Marley may be great for the Caribbean, but sailing up the coast of Norway theyвЂ™reВ out of place, regardless of the theme of the restaurant on your Disney cruise line. The only positive to Cabanas being extraordinarily loud when itвЂ™s overcrowded is that it drowned out the breakfast soundtrack that hasnвЂ™t changed in the five years weвЂ™ve been cruising with you вЂ“ literally the same songs in the same order. It would have improved the cruise experience considerably if CariocaвЂ™s had been openВ for breakfast all 12 mornings of the Disney cruise line instead of only three of them. It worked out perfectly, and we were able to haveВ two subsequent breakfasts there. To their credit, the staff saw this taking place and, on Day 8 of the cruise, opened CariocaвЂ™s as a second breakfast buffet. This works well on your warm-weather cruises, but in the north Atlantic people were shiveringВ outside, even with the blankets that staff sometimes brought around. The seating areas filled up quickly, and the overflow seating is outside. The majority of breakfasts and lunches on your Disney cruise line were incredibly crowded, with seemingly everyone on board attempting to dine at the same time. The food in Cabanas is good вЂ“ especially the lunches. The QuestionnaireВ that you distribute at the end of each cruise doesnвЂ™t have room for comments (despite staff referring to it as a вЂњComment CardвЂќ), so please consider this my actual Comment Card. But Disney cruisesВ arenвЂ™t perfect, and especially given the premium price you charge, there are a lot of improvements you should make. There are a lot of things that you do well, and IвЂ™ve recommended you before in my Disney Cruise Line Review and Things to Do in 2016 posts. WeвЂ™ve just returned from our third cruise with you in Europe. Disney Cruise Line: Sunset on the Disney Magic An Open Letter to Disney Cruise Line
