I must admit, I'm spoiled. 9th
Disney cruise coming up in 2 weeks. 2nd time in the 12001 Walt Disney Suite.
Now, that's luxury.
Concierge is above all else.
I've chatted with several guests in the concierge lounge that are long time cruisers on other ships and were shocked, shocked I say, at the level of service on the Disney.
I've never cruised anything else so I can't give a compare or contrast.
I chose
DCL because when we started my kids were 8,7,5,3 and I wanted them to be safe.
I'm sure all cruise lines are safe but DCL is built on the concept of kids having fun and being safe.
The Kids still love our DCL time together and they're now 17,16,14,12.
We all dress up for Pirate night. Like, Really good pirates!
Quick story, Last cruise we were in Palo dining and the Captain was dining a few tables over with his executive staff, all in dress whites.
I had chatted with him briefly on a few occasions in the hallways.
I walked over and asked him, Captain, What do you think Walt Disney would think of this
Disney Cruise Line?
He turned to me and said, This is exactly how Walt and his family cruised.
I, (the captain) was Walt's captain on his yacht and the level of service is very similar to the level of service on his yacht.
I explained that it was our 8th cruise on the DCL and we had only cruised with DCL.
He said, Why would you cruise anywhere else?
He is right.
The concierge staff is the best in the business.
We forgot our photos on the dolphin excursion in the gift shop.
We didn't realize it until we got back to the boat and by chance told the concierge staff about that.
I though we would have to wrangle with the Dolphin people to ship us our photos back to the states and had 0 confidence that would happen.
Just before the final horn sounded a boat pulled up from the Dolphin Excursion and someone ran to the ship.
Our photos were delivered about 10 minutes later to our suite.
Unparalleled service.
