a “day” at universal during your disney trip is costing a lot more than you think...💸

between the $35 uber ride each way, single day tickets having a higher per-day cost and travel time, you’re already spending more than you might expect.

add in the cost of express passes and the fact that universal has four parks to explore. the truth is, you might find yourself rushing through the magic instead of actually enjoying it.

stay overnight at universal!👏🏻 value resorts can run around $150–$200 per night and you’ll get early theme park entry to make even more of your time.

don’t spend your universal day watching the clock. a little extra planning can mean a whole lot more magic.💫

i didn’t book our first family disney trip for my son...👶🏼 i booked it for me.

i’ve been dreaming of the day i’d get to take my own child to disney world for as long as i can remember. it’s where magic feels real and where some of the happiest moments of my life have happened.💫

will he remember this trip? probably not. but i will. i’ll remember the feeling of watching him discover a place that has meant so much to me for so long.

i’ll never stop finding reasons to take him back and to let him experience disney as often as we can.🐭

so, yes, maybe this trip is a little bit for me. because i want the memories. i want to look back and remember what it felt like to watch my little boy experience the magic for the very first time.

and if that means booking a trip he won’t remember just so i can remember it forever? i’ll do it every single time. 🤍

your first family cruise starts long before you step onboard.⚓ after your sailing is booked, it’s all about knowing the little details ahead of time.

this is where working with me as your travel specialist comes in!👏🏻 i’m not just sharing advice with my clients - i'm putting it into practice.

i have a cruise booked for when my son turns one, so i’m getting ready to navigate what it takes to cruise with a baby firsthand.👶🏼

when a client tells me they want to take a disney cruise, one of my first questions is “what kind of experience are you looking for?”🐭

the ship you choose can make a big difference in your overall vacation.👇🏻

disney wish - for the fairytale family 👑
if your family is all about princesses and that storybook-at-sea feeling, the wish is a wonderful fit. i especially love the 3 or 4 night itineraries from port canaveral for first time cruisers and families with younger children who want that classic disney enchantment.

disney treasure - for the adventure seekers 🪎
this is my pick for families who want a little more adventure and exploration during their cruise. with its adventurous storytelling, unique dining and 7 night caribbean itineraries, i recommend the treasure to families who want more time onboard to truly settle into the disney cruise experience.

disney destiny - for the heroes + villains 🦸🏼
have a marvel fan? disney villains fan? the destiny's theme gives this ship a completely different personality and it’s a favorite for families with older kids, teens and adults who want the magic with a little more edge.

disney believe - for the dreamers 💫
the newest member of the fleet is all about promise, possibility and believing in your dreams. i see this being a fantastic choice for families who love heartfelt disney storytelling and want to experience something brand new.

choosing a disney cruise isn’t just about picking a ship. it’s about finding the right ship for YOU.🚢

enchantment awaits...💫 as a travel agent, those are two of my favorite words. want to know why? 💭

it means my clients onboard their disney cruise placed a deposit for their next sailing!

a disney cruise line placeholder lets you put down a deposit on a future cruise vacation while you’re still onboard at a discounted rate compared with booking later. 💸

the placeholder provides a 10% discount on the cruise fare and you’ll need to sail within 24 months of when the placeholder was purchased.

once you’re home, you can choose the sailing that works best for your schedule and apply your placeholder to that reservation.🎉

as someone who grew up with the hospitality and guest service of disney world, embarking on my first disney cruise blew me away. these cast members go above and beyond for each and every guest and make you want to come back to experience the magic over and over!🐭

when visiting disney, i never really had to give much thought to airport transportation.🚗 but now that i’m a mom, i’m thinking about things like car seats, luggage, a tired baby and just how easy (or complicated!) that first and last part of the trip can be.

let's narrow it down to two airport transportation options i’d personally consider!👇🏻

𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕
one big perk is that you don’t need to worry about car seats on the shuttle. however, it can take a little longer since you may make multiple stops at other resorts along the way. on your way home, pickup can be 3+ hours before your flight, depending on your schedule.

𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒇𝒆𝒓
a private transfer is a great option if you want a more direct experience. your driver meets you at baggage claim with a sign, helps with your luggage and takes you directly to your resort. many private transfer services also provide a car seat. plus, you can choose your pickup time for the trip back to the airport.

it comes down to what matters most for your family - saving a little money or making those first and last moments of your disney trip as easy and stress free as possible.💫
