🚨 DISNEY CRUISE LINE NEWS IS HERE… and it’s exciting! 🚢✨

There is way too much to squeeze into one post, so here are 3 things I’m most excited about👇🏼

🍎 THE DISNEY WISH IS COMING TO NEW YORK!

YES. You read that right. 😍

The Wish will sail from New York in fall 2027 with 7 special sailings to destinations including Bermuda and Canada/New England.

And for my Ohio families… a Disney cruise without having to fly all the way to Florida?! 👀

🌴 MORE CARIBBEAN OPTIONS FROM SAN JUAN

The Disney Wish AND Disney Fantasy will offer 5–7 night Caribbean cruises from Puerto Rico, giving us even more options for a Disney cruise getaway.

🗺️ NEW PANAMA CANAL ADVENTURES

The Disney Magic will take guests through the Panama Canal on two 14-night sailings, including NEW ports of call in Panama!

📆 Select Castaway Club members can begin booking August 31, with general booking opening September 8!

And this is just the beginning…

🚢✨ OKAY DISNEY CRUISE LINE… WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?!

These coordinates are giving us some BIG clues 👀📍

New York City, San Juan, Galveston, San Diego, Fort Lauderdale & Port Canaveral… and Disney says the list is “a little incomplete.”👀

Could this mean NEW itineraries, returning ports, or maybe a little something we aren’t expecting?!

One thing we know for sure…Disney Cruise Line news is coming TOMORROW!🚢✨

What do YOU think they’re teasing?! I’ll be watching for the announcement and sharing all the details as soon as we know! 👏🏼

🏝️ TRAVEL TIP TUESDAY: Two Disney islands. One unforgettable cruise. ✨

If a relaxing beach getaway sounds pretty perfect right now, have you considered a Disney Cruise Line vacation?

Disney has TWO incredible island destinations—and while they’re both beautiful, they offer completely different experiences:

🏝️ CASTAWAY CAY
The classic Disney island experience! Think white-sand beaches, crystal-clear water, snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, character meet-and-greets, family fun and plenty of Disney magic.

🌊 LOOKOUT CAY AT LIGHTHOUSE POINT
A beautiful blend of Bahamian culture and natural beauty. Enjoy gorgeous beaches along with Bahamian music, dance, storytelling, local artisans, nature trails and unique cultural experiences.

✨ And here’s the best part…you don’t always have to choose!

There are select Disney Cruise Line itineraries that visit BOTH Castaway Cay AND Lookout Cay—giving you two completely different island days during the same vacation. 🛳️🏝️

And right now, there’s an extra reason to start planning…
💰 SAVE UP TO $500 PER GUEST on select Disney Cruise Line sailings!

Book by August 30, 2026 for select sailings between October 1, 2026 and March 31, 2027.

For example, on select 7-night sailings:
✨ Verandah — save $500 per guest
✨ Oceanview — save $400 per guest
✨ Inside — save $300 per guest

That could mean up to $1,500 in savings for 3 guests sharing a stateroom! 🎉

The offer is available on select sailings aboard the Disney Treasure, Disney Fantasy and Disney Wonder, with additional savings available on select 3-, 4-, 5- and 6-night sailings.

Whether you’re dreaming of a fall getaway, holiday cruise or a winter escape to the sunshine…this might be the perfect time to start looking. ☀️🌴

And this is where I come in! I can help you compare the available sailings, stateroom options and pricing to find the itinerary that makes the most sense for your family—and make sure you’re taking advantage of applicable offers.

🏝️ Two Disney island experiences
🛳️ One unforgettable cruise
💰 And potentially some pretty significant savings

Cheaper isn’t always better. And when it comes to your vacation, the lowest price doesn’t always mean the best value.

One of the biggest mistakes I see families make is choosing a resort based solely on the price or a pretty picture online.

And I get it—we all want to save money on vacation! ❤️ But there’s so much more to consider than the nightly rate.

Where is the resort located?
How easy is it to get around?
What does the room actually look like?
Does it have the amenities your family will actually use?
Is it a good fit for your kids’ ages?
Will you spend your vacation relaxing…or spending extra time getting from place to place?

Sometimes the resort that costs a little more upfront can actually give you MORE value, MORE convenience, and a much better vacation experience!

And sometimes the less expensive option really IS the right choice! That’s where I come in. ✈️

As your travel agent, I do the research behind the pretty pictures. I look at the location, amenities, transportation, room options, reviews, resort layout, and all those little details that can make a BIG difference once you’re actually there.

My goal isn’t to find you the most expensive option—or simply the cheapest one. It’s to help you find the right fit for your family, your budget, and the vacation you actually want to have.

Because your resort isn’t just where you sleep at night. It can be a huge part of the vacation itself.✨

So before you book the “cheapest” option you find online, let me do the research for you. 😉

Have you ever stayed somewhere that was absolutely worth the extra money—or somewhere you’d never book again?

✨ JUST BOOKED!✨

Imagine waking up in a new Caribbean paradise almost every morning... 🌴☀️

That’s exactly what my returning clients will be doing on a 7-night sailing aboard the gorgeous Norwegian Luna! 🚢

Their adventure includes stops at:
☀️ Great Stirrup Cay (Norwegian’s private island)
☀️ Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic
☀️ St. Thomas
☀️ Tortola, British Virgin Islands

And here’s what makes this vacation even sweeter...

Their cruise includes Norwegian’s Free at Sea package, so they’ll enjoy:
🍹 Unlimited Open Bar
🍽️ Specialty Dining
📶 Wi-Fi
🌴 Shore Excursion Credits

Imagine spending your days exploring turquoise beaches and colorful island towns, then coming back to a gorgeous, brand-new ship to enjoy incredible dining, live entertainment, and ocean views in every direction. That’s exactly why cruising is one of my favorite vacations to plan!

There’s something special about helping repeat clients find another vacation they’re excited about. It means they trust me to help create another unforgettable adventure—and I couldn’t be more grateful! 🫶🏼

Who else is ready to trade their daily routine for a week in the Caribbean? 🌊☀️

✨ 5AM alarm during summer? Worth it!

This morning I was up bright and early to secure Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Disney Jollywood Nights party tickets for some of my amazing repeat clients before they even started their day.

🎄✨ Mission accomplished! Their tickets are officially purchased and ready to link to their My Disney Experience accounts, so they can simply look forward to making magical holiday memories.

This is one of the biggest perks of booking with a travel advisor. While you’re getting ready for work, enjoying your morning coffee, or catching a little extra sleep, I’m handling the details, watching release dates, and making sure you don’t miss out on the experiences that can sell out quickly.

Whether you’re dreaming of Disney, a cruise, an all-inclusive escape, or another unforgettable vacation, I’m here to make planning easy from start to finish.
