🎙️ Rope Drop On Deck 116: Disney Cruise Secrets Even Frequent Sailors Miss

On this week’s episode of Rope Drop On Deck, Michelle and Doug uncover the best Disney Cruise Line secrets—even for frequent cruisers. From hidden events the Navigator app doesn’t always highlight, to the smartest strategies for character meet-and-greets, to little-known ship amenities that make your vacation extra magical—we’ve got insider tips you won’t want to miss.

We’ll share:

• How to find hidden events around the ship (yes, the atrium is full of surprises)

• Character meet strategies including princess tickets, managing back-to-back lines, and navigating the chaos of “See Ya Real Soon”

• Little-known ship amenities like Satellite Falls, secret snack spots in Cove Café & Buena Vista Café, random photo ops, and seating tricks in the dining rooms

Plus, this week’s Word of the Day (“poop deck”), the latest cruise news (Labadee sailings canceled through April), and our listener spotlight review.

✨ Whether you’re booking your first Disney Cruise or your tenth, you’ll discover something new that makes your next sailing unforgettable.
