I wrote my thoughts about the Disney Believe on various blogs yesterday afternoon, and I agree with you!
I labeled my review of the reveal as, "Putting lipstick on a pig."
The Wish Class ships miss the mark in so many places (eg. adult spaces placement, narrow hallways, crowded dining, small theatres, uninspired staterooms, just to name a few).
I've caused with DCL 16 times on all the classic and Dream-class ships. I've done everything except Europe and Asia. Sailing with DCL through Panama Canal and across the Atlantic were amazing! But I would never do those on a Wish Class - Yuk!
Looking forward, with hope, to the smaller new class ships to come.
Thank you for all your great posts!

I am hopeful too of the smaller class ships and hope that DCL is listening to all of the feedback about the present ships and also about the reaction to Disney Believe. I agree that the longer sailings are amazing. I did have the Wish transatlantic booked, but actually cancelled my booking to sail with another line.

My Cousin and her family are also coming with us next year on the Disney wish. We have connected our booking over the Disney Cruise app as we were told to do so we could dine together at the same table. Is this true or is there something we need to do to be seated together so our children are together also.

Just as long as your bookings are linked you should be seated on the same table for your party.

Hi Alison,
First of all, thank you for helpful Disney information. I love all the fun facts and tidbits!
My husband and are take 3-4 Disney trips every year using a travel agent. However, I do the legwork and yet my agent and I are not on the same page these days.
Going forward, how difficult is it to switch travel agents? I have trips booked into April of 2027. Or is it easier just to wait to switch agents until after that trip? Problem being, I tend to have multiple trips booked. Currently I have three DCL cruises booked. Yay for me lol.
Anything thoughts would be appreciated!
Thank you,
Pamela

Thank you for your message and I am very glad to hear that you enjoy my website! It is possible that you can switch agents for those trips if you booked within 30 days, and also we can look at whether or not it would be to your advantage to rebook the ones you already have. I am sending you an email!

We took our family (14 people) on a Disney cruise this past October. We absolutely enjoyed it. The five grandkids were ages 1 - 5. I wanted to thank you as I read so many of your reviews / recommendations. Your writings were so informative, easy to follow and super helpful! Thank you!! We have already decided that we want to do it all over again - thinking about 2028 as we have two new babies due soon. In order to get rooms next to each other (at least 4 and more like 5 rooms), when would you recommend that we book it? Once again, thank you for sharing all your experiences.

You are very welcome! So glad that you enjoy my articles. I would suggest that you book as soon as the itineraries are released. In general, the prices do go up, and as you want the staterooms together you will have the best choice. If you want help with booking, and free onboard credit let me know and I will put you in contact with a great agent who can help.
