We've never been on a cruise. What do we need to know?
First, relax - that's the point of your vacation. With Disney Cruise Line, you'll find your ticketing, air transportation and transfers (if you chose our Air Program), your stateroom accommodations, meals and entertainment on board have all been arranged. All you need to do is pack - and you don't need to bring much, because the atmosphere is casual and informal. And if necessary, you can purchase almost anything you need right on board.
Do I need a paseport to travel?

Should I bring Cash, credit cards, foreign currency?
Transactions on board the Disney Magic are in U.S. dollars. In the Baharnas, U.S. dollars and major credit cards are accepted almost everywhere. But you won't need to bring much cash (except for shoreside purchases), because Disney Cruise Line has a convenient "cash-free system" on board the ship. When you arrive at the Walt Disney World. Resort or at the Disney Cruise line Teminal at Port Canaveral, your signature will be requested for check-in. At this time you may also present a credit card (American Express., MasterCard, Visa, or The Disney Credit Card which will give you charging privileges at both the Walt Disney World Resort and aboard the Disney Magic.

What should I pack?
In short the less the better. The Walt Disney World Resort and the Disney Magic offer a casual, informal resort atmosphere. Lightweight shorts, slacks, sundresses, jeans and tops are all appropriate in the Baharnas and Central Florida during the summer months, while in the winter, a light jacket, sweater and socks may be needed for cooler days and nights. Bring comfortable shoes - like boatshoes, sandels or sneakers. But leave your expensive jewerly and black tie stuff at home - you won't need to dress up for dinner (except for Lumiere's restaurant, where it is suggested that men wear jackets and ladies wear dresses or pantsuits). Bring prescription medicines in original containers, an extra pair of glasses or contact lenses and your camera. And don't forget swimwear sungasses, a sunhat or visor and sunscreen - especially for kids. Of course, if you do forget something, you can buy it on board.
Will I enjoy this cruise vacation as an adult?
Of course! Just as the Walt Disney World Resort is the number one vacation destination for adults - including honeymooners, seniors, couples and famalies - with and without kids, the Disney Magic has something for everyone, separately and together The Disney Magic has been specifically designed so that kids over three have their own separate areas of supervisied activity away from adults. You'll hardly be aware they are on board. So you can enjoy the traditional features of cruising that make it such a wonderful adult experience. Plus we've created some specific areas and entertainment that adult guests will find particularly attractive. On the Disney Magic, adult-oriented areas include the adult pool, the spa and fitness center, Beat Street entertainment district and Palo (18 years or older), an intimate restaurant serving Italian cuisine. On Disneys Castaway Cay there's a private adult beach and outdoor massage cabanas.
