Do Adults Bound or Dress Up in Costume on a Disney Cruise??
HECK YES!!!!!!
When going on a Disney Cruise many people ask if it is ok to
dress up in costume for dinner and shows. The answer is YES!!! Not everyone
does dress’ up but many do. Many dress up for Pirate Night. They do everything
from simple Pirate Themed t-shirts to full on pirate gear. Some even dress up
as pirates from Disney movies.
Some people dress up for the theme of the restaurant. Going
to Tritons? How about a t-shirt, bound or costume from Little Mermaid? Tiana’s
or 1923? Get the 1920’s vibe going and dress up with a 20’s feel!! A flapper
dress for the ladies and an appropriate dress shirt, pants and vest for the men
works well. In Tiana’s add a bit of Mardi Gras! Do you have beads or an appropriate
mask or boa? Animator’s Palate we go for a Disney cartoon themed. Something Disney
sketchbook themed is good. Enchanted Garden, Royal Court and Palace a Princess
and Prince bound is great. Lumiere’s a Beauty and the Beast theme outfit is appropriate.
Arendale has a Frozen theme, so Let it Go!! World of Marvel is all about Super
Heros so let your inner superhero out to play! Plaza De Coco is themed after
the movie Coco. Dress up as your favorite character from the movie or just go
with a Mexican themed outfit If it makes you happy DO IT!! We are still waiting
for the restaurants for the Treasure and Adventure to be announced.

Instead of dressing up for the restaurants you can dress up
for the show you are going to see. Formal Attire is great for the Golden Mickey’s!
Frozen, Beauty and the Beast and other Disney Movies have Live Stage Plays you
can dress up for! At minimum you can always go for a Mickey and Minnie bound no
matter where you are.
Showing our love of Mickey and Minnie!
Do not feel bad if you are the only one dressed up, or if
there are just a few others are dressed as far as you. Nobody judges! People
are as excited to see a fun t-shirt or nice simple regular nice clothes as much
as people dress up. Cruise Casual is the standard dress code in all main restaurants,
except the Adult Exclusive restaurants.
So dress up, dress down or BOUND!! It does not matter as
long as it makes you happy!
What NOT to Pack in Your Checked Luggage When Sailing
No matter what Cruise Line you sail on there is a list of
Prohibited Items and Items that you must pack in Carryon Bags instead of
Checked. For Disney Cruise Line you can take up to 2 bottles of Wine or 6
bottles of Beer per adult. This MUST be in your Carryon and cannot be in
Checked Luggage.
Other things, like electronics, valuables like jewelry you
can, by policy do in either Carryon or Checked Luggage. So, what should you do?
In my opinion and experience it is best to take things you would never wish to
lose or have damaged in your Carryon. Do not put laptops, camera’s, tablets,
phones, jewelry, or cash in your Checked Luggage! Besides it being both the
cruise line and customs policy that you must carry wine and beer on and off the
ship you would not want your bottles of wine or beer to break open in your
suitcase damaging your clothes, other contents of the bag and the suitcase
itself!
Why am I so adamant? There are many reasons. Theft is always
possible. You don’t want valuable item lost to theft. Not only is Disney Crew handling your bags,
Port Employees, Porters and Long Shorman also handle your bags. They are tossed
together in Luggage Trollies and then dumped into large storage rooms on the
ship. Suitcases can be accidentally damaged and pop open, dumping the contents.
Accidents happen and Luggage can fall overboard while being transferred from
shore to ship and ship to shore. Yes, I’ve been on a ship when it has happened!
Thankfully not to my luggage. You would not want your Medication, Laptop,
Tablet or Camera to end up in the Ocean! So, keep those valuables with you!
