From the Disney Wish’s maiden voyage she has done only 3-4-Night

Exploring Disney Wish:
Restaurants:
1923 is a step back into the Hollywood Golden
days of 1923. It is themed to honor the creative genius of Walt Disney and the
support of his brother Roy. In these two rooms you will find artwork and tools
used to create many Disney Movies.
Arendelle – A Frozen Dining Adventure is
themed after the movie Frozen. Enjoy a show while you dine. Elsa, Anna, Krisstoff,
Olaf and Oaken will be there!
World of Marvel is themed after the Marvel
Cinematic Universe. Enjoy the “Avengers: Quantum Encounter,” show while you
dine on food inspired by the Avenger. Join the Avengers in saving the universe!
Shows:
The 3 Broadway-Style shows are Disney The Little Mermaid, Seas
the Adventure, and Disney’s Aladdin.
Disney The Littme Mermaid
is based on the movie Little Mermaid.
Seas the Adventure stars
Goofy and friends as they journey through uncharted waters.
Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical
Spectacular is based on the movie Aladdin.
All Disney Ships have the Sail a Wave/Sail Away deck party
and Pirates Night. Some sailings have a Frozen themed Deck Party if they are
not doing Pirate Night.
Disney Wish is the first ship to have the AquaMouse, a Watercoaster/Dark Attraction at sea. With the use of screens you can go through 2 different stories. Scuba Scramble takes you through a miss adventure of Mickey and Minnie going scuba diving looking for Mermaids. The second story is Swiss Meltdown. Mickey, Minnie and Pluto want to o sledding but the sun comes out and starts to melt the snow!
There is a fun lounge called the Hyperspace Lounge! Take a
seat at the bar and watch as you sail the Galaxy not the seas! Throughout your
visit the view will change. There are many unique drinks offered there.
If you love Ariel, Elsa and Anna this ship is a special treat for you. Yes, the
other characters will be there as well.
Disney Wish has more Accessible Cabins than most Disney’s
ships. Wish was dedicated to the Make a Wish Children, past, present and
future. The venues themselves are Accessible but in my opinion the ship is not as
accessible as it should be for some. If you have a mobility issue, be aware
that this ship does not have any center elevators. If you are in the middle of
the ship and want to go directly up or down a deck or 2 you will have to go to
either the forward or aft elevators and walk back. There is no “jogging track”
that goes around the ship, as it does on deck 4 or the first 4 ships of the
fleet. Instead, you can walk outside from the forward to the aft elevators then
you have to go inside to cross over to walk the same 1/3 of the ship on the
other side or go upstairs. The pool deck is not one level and has small pools
with steps all around. Be aware of this if you use crutches, walker, cane,
wheelchair or scooter. This may not be the best ship for you.
There are lots of extra fun things to do on this ship. So
many I’m not going to list them all. There is the Incredibles family race and
the Alternate Reality game Uncharted Adventure! Make sure to download the
