November 11-18, 2023 on the Disney Fantasy!
Me and the Magic Group Cruise!
Join Amanda Bauner and the Me and The Magic Community for Our Very First Disney Group Cruise
Our cruise will be November 11-18, 2023 on the Disney Fantasy!
This 7-night Eastern Caribbean cruise will depart from Port Canaveral with stops at Tortola (British Virgin Islands), St. Thomas (U.S. Virgin Islands), and Disney’s Castaway Cay (Bahamas).
And to make this cruise even more special, it is a Very Merrytime sailing! The ship will be decked out in holiday grandeur, with numerous holiday events on board, including a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus!
Follow along with Amanda and the group during their cruise, and see the highlights on Facebook and Instagram.
New Tree Lighting Ceremony
On the first night of all Very Merrytime sailings, gather around the three-deck-tall tree in the ship’s atrium for a brand-new tree lighting ceremony. Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Goofy will invite you to sing along to classic holiday tunes, followed by a countdown that will not only make the tree merry and bright, but also introduce the guests of honor for the cruise (Santa!? I know him!).
“Deck” the Halls at Mickey and Minnie’s Holiday Party
Mickey and Minnie’s Holiday Party, another brand-new experience on these specialty sailings, will invite you to the upper decks for a one-of-a-kind celebration at sea filled with tidings of good cheer.
This high-energy deck party – thrown by Mickey and Minnie – will feature favorite Disney friends as they celebrate friendship, love, and family with a fresh mix of classic and original holiday songs.
Holiday Decor, Music, and More!
In addition to these new entertainment offerings, the Disney Cruise Line decks and halls will be filled with boughs of holly from bow-to-stern during Very Merrytime cruises.
Aboard these seasonal sailings, you will also find beloved Disney characters debuting new holiday attire, themed Very Merrytime activities for everyone, carolers singing contemporary versions of songs that celebrate a myriad of holidays, commemorative merchandise, and festive food and beverage items.
