Disney Dream - Resumed Cruising in August 2021

Average Return to Cruising Ranking (As of October 2021): 4.5 out of 5 Stars 

The complete Disney staff is beyond happy to have guests onboard,they are running almost 100% of the staff so your dining servers aren't rushed and you can have a 5-10min conversation and they get to connect with you better. Disney always has the best staff with a smile on their face and love for their position. - propwash79 on Service

No buffet, but the dining experiences were fun. Food and service were first class. There were live appearances of Disney characters and themes. Ambience from chandelier to white cotton table displays a true fine dining. - balucating on Food and Dining 

Easy. Kept our luggage and left the ship with the first group. - scolbow on Disembarkation 

This cruise was about 30% capacity and the teen clubs had low attendance count less than 8 and at times it wasn't worth it but the good part they could come and go at anytime. For the kids club and lab you need to select block of times for your kids to go so no more walk in. - propwash79 on Kids Clubs

Disney Fantasy - Resumed Cruising in September 2021 

Average Return to Cruising Ranking (As of October 2021): 4.6 out of 5 Stars

First 7-night cruise back for Disney Fantasy post covid was exciting. Covid protocols were necessary and non-intrusive. Masks were mandated in doors and enforced by Disney staff, as well as washing of the hands. We felt very safe with pre-testing in the garage prior to boarding. - GugaandRob on Overall Experience 

Embarkation was fast and easy. We did have to wait about 20 minutes for the rapid tests to come back, but other than that, everything was extremely smooth and well-executed. - katienewell on Embarkation

The ship was very clean and the layout was very easy to learn. - GugaandRob on Ship Quality 

This was a unique cruise since it was so empty due to capacity limitations, which made everything so much nicer. The staff was friendly and helpful as usual, everything was clean, and the shows were great. Our one big complaint was the lack of character meet and greets and no Sailaway Party. - katienewell on Overall Experience
