Sailing Disney Cruise - Food Allergies – Diabetes – Dietary special Needs

 

There is nothing worse than food allergies. If you are at sea and eat something you are allergic it could be a major issue that ruins your trip and possibly life threatening. How does DCL deal with allergies?? The last thing DCL wants is someone sick when it could be avoided!

 

Before you sail make sure to fill out the Special Needs form and let DCL know you have an allergy. Tell them what you are allergic to. Then first night at dinner on the cruise your Server will ask you if you are allergic to anything, tell them. They will make a note of that and if you try to order something with the item you are allergic to in it they will say now. For those looking to cut back on sugar or who are diabetic there are lots of sugar free options offered.

 

When you go to a sit down breakfast or lunch, Quick Service or Adult Dining, they will ask you about allergies. If they don’t ask, make sure to tell them! The same goes for Room Service. If they can make the requested food without the item that you are allergic to they will. If they can’t make it without the allergen, they will tell you to pick something else. If there is nothing available you like without something you are allergic to they will often make something special for you that is allergy free. Challenge the chief! I’ve had them come out and ask what things you like to eat. Then they fix something with those ingredients in it. I got a delicious Italian desert in Palo that was completely off menu because of my allergies! The chief made it specially for me. If you are in the Main Restaurant and they don’t have something you can or want to eat and there was something from the night before you enjoyed, go ahead and ask for it! It can be done!

 

DCL wants you to enjoy the food on the ship, even if you have dietary limitations. Do you need Sugar Free, Gluten Free, Vegan, Vegetarian, your food Pureed, or other special requirements? Let DCL know and they will go out of their way to make sure you eat well! I’ve seen them deal with all sorts of dietary needs. You just need to talk to them.
