Just booked our first Disney Cruise. Can anyone give insights to the DCL subscription on Touring Plans?

Look at the Forum, which has a DCL section with lots of knowledgeable people.
7:20pm on 6/26/26 by
I like reading the unofficial DCL book but there's nothing really from subscription. I ended up mostly asking questions on here as I get lost in the forum. What ship/ itinerary are you doing?

@ebcooper, if you want to look at the forum, at the top of the page you can choose your category. Just set that to DCL and all threads (latest top) will be there. You can also search that thread only if you want. Pictures are there too,

Finally made it to MCO Hyatt, left home more than 33 hours ago. May as well start our Shenkel list. 1. First time one of our bags didn't arrive, lucky I put pjs in my carryon. 2. First stay at MCO Hyatt, convenient with all the delays today.

As the lovely Quantus castmembers said to us after we missed our flight from Sydney en route to Canberra, "No worries, mate!" Welcome and have a wonderful time!!!

@hodg we booked it and have friends staying with us. There are 5 of us here for 4 nights.

For a rainy and hot trip (next week), are there any sandals that are both comfortable and waterproof? I hate wet feet. I have shoe covers, but they get your feet so sweaty in the heat. Please share what has worked for y'all!

LOL @fatty. Those are quite something.

We're at Tokyo Disney Resort now and it's been raining the past 3 days. Dh and I have been wearing Keens (Newport I think?) which dry nicely overnight without newspaper.

I love fitflops too- have a pair with webbing crisscross straps which are good in waterparks/wet days. Not the regular leather ones in water tho.

NDR but aulani question -- Have never been without kids, but will be there for 2 days this september. When we went with kids at spring break, the chairs were a nightmare. Anyone have any idea how hard it is to get a seat around the adult pool?
5:43pm on 6/26/26 by
We had no problem whatsoever last December! The main pool was mobbed yet there was plenty of space at the adult pool. I'm so happy we had that option!

Anyone else feel nauseous and sick after a ride after the speedway after magic kingdom
7:01pm on 6/26/26 by
Yes it's the fumes
8:09pm on 6/26/26 by
Yes, after. Always after.
8:54pm on 6/26/26 by
Nope.
11:32pm on 6/26/26 by
Are we talking about before or after?

DAS- my kiddo did the live video chat and the Disney agent sent some guides/pdfs but how do we know if they were approved prior to going to a park?
7:26pm on 6/26/26 by
Thanks, I reviewed the chat log but it doesn't say yes or no-just some pdfs. Strange!
8:09pm on 6/26/26 by
Sounds like if they sent you "guides" then you weren't approved. But could be mistaken. Good idea to follow up.
10:05pm on 6/26/26 by
I would follow up, but we tried to apply for DAS for my daughter with migraines and they sent us the PDF's when we did not qualify. Good luck either way.

Saw a lot of recommendations to bring hydration packs for water on the trip. What ones do you recommend? We want to try some before we go and make sure we like them. Don't want ones with caffeine as would be sharing with the kids. TIA!
11:22pm on 6/26/26 by
I haven't found any of those hydration powders that taste good. I would instead get Mio drops or Crystal Light.
11:33pm on 6/26/26 by
I like liquid IV and LMNT. The second is very salty, so can be tough for picky pallets, but the grapefruit one is pretty tasty.
11:33pm on 6/26/26 by
I like liquid IV. My kids don't love it, but they tolerate it. I won't put it in my actual reusable water bottle, I just mix it in with a disposable water bottle. Definitely helps especially if I'm feeling nauseous.
11:34pm on 6/26/26 by
Just an FYI - I followed the directions posted by TP for making a room request through the chat feature and the reply I just got said they have no way to add requests to the resort system from the internet help desk. They said they will reach out to guest
5:53pm on 6/26/26 by
services to relay my request. I'm still waiting for them to come back into the chat, so I guess we'll see. Just wanted to share my experience. I guess I will email the request as well and see what happens. Using the exact same verbiage.
5:55pm on 6/26/26 by
By chat feature I mean in MDE. I'm using my laptop not the app
5:56pm on 6/26/26 by
Keep us posted
6:53pm on 6/26/26 by
Chat person replied that customer service was adding the request to my reservation. No way to know for sure I guess. I did save a transcript of the chat. I know there are no guarantees regardless. Guess we'll see what happens.
11:32pm on 6/26/26 by
"What's cookin'?" Not me! I'm going to pick up some delicious New York style pizza on my way home. I'll add a quick salad to go along with it. Let's see what your dinner plans are for tonight.
5:26pm on 6/26/26 by
Wild salmon, jasmine rice, and sauteed spinach from our CSA share.
6:54pm on 6/26/26 by
Make your own pizzas and Kool-Aid. Snickers ice cream bars for dessert.

Ate at the Red Raven in Williams, AZ.

Is there a way to add an unusual celebration to your resort reservation? Online they give you a few very specific options. I want to add that we are celebrating our first trip as empty nesters. It's just for fun really.
6:26pm on 6/25/26 by
Thank you everyone! I wouldn't expect anything from it. Since Disney asks if you're celebrating when you book your trip, I was just wondering.
8:19pm on 6/26/26 by
@Monorail, that's just a gimmick. gets people excited and then they get a button
10:53pm on 6/26/26 by
@monorail Congrats!! I'm a year in to the empty nester life and I love it. What a great way to celebrate!!
