Thank you so much for all of the VERY helpful info. We are first time cruisers and I was so worried about this check-in process. I am so glad I cam across your video. You now have a new subscriber 😊. Can’t wait to watch all of your videos 🎉
Hi Momlc2001! Yay! So glad this video helped and thank you so much for subscribing! ❤️ We're so happy to have you here and we hope you have a great first cruise! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Thanks for this video! We are sailing on the Wish soon and our online check in is coming up. Good to know we need to have our passport and head shot photos ready for upload during online check in. I wouldn't have known that.
Hey Matt! This information was very helpful. Could you possibly do a vlog of uploading Vaccination Card and COVID test to Safe Passage. When you get back from vacation, hope you guys have a great time.
Hi Disney Dogs! Thanks for watching and for the kind words, we really appreciate it! If we have some time coming up, we will try to make a video about Safe Passage. Though, if things keep progressing at their current rate, that may be obsolete by the time we can do it! 😁 Happy Travels!
@@HoffmanHappyTravels I was able to check in and knew what to except on the site. I even managed a 11:15 port arrival time :) I will say though, that blue circle of doom was very stressful lol
Was it easier to checkin on your phone or laptop? On your next Disney sailing can you try to choose port arrival first and let us know if that works? Thanks!
Just double checking emed is approved for dcl covid test? And thank you for telling us about emed...we used it for our flight to get home from iceland!!! Great video!!!
Very helpful, thanks! But at 3.14, you mention that it’s important to check in with the “legal name that matches your travel documents.” I’m sailing using my birth certificate, which shows my maiden name. My driver’s license shows my married name…Will this cause problems? I’m assuming I should check in with my married name (it’s my adult legal taxpayer name).
Hi Annmarie! Yes definitely check in with your married legal name. It is usually recommended if you’re using your birth certificate and Drivers License, to also bring your marriage certificate to bridge the gap in name change. It really depends on how strict the security team at the terminal is as to whether they check it or not. We hope this helps! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Hi linkingurl1680! I would say to make sure your two cabins are linked together in DCL's system so you will be sitting together in the restaurants. Also the Disney app has a messaging feature so you can communicate with other people on board, so I would take advantage of that! Also having a small magnetized white board to hang on the outside of doors can help with leaving notes and communication. Most of all have a great time and enjoy your cruise! 😍 We hope this helps and you have a great sailing! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Hi! The only specific instructions that we noticed for the passport photo is that it had to be a clear photo without any glare. We don't remember specific instructions about it being across two pages. We hope this helps! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Hi Ashlie! The time you pick is your arrival time to the terminal. So if someone in your party is being tested at the terminal, this would happen after that arrival time. We hope this helps and thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Very helpful. I have a question, if you are two stare rooms in your party, do you need to check in separately? I am still not sure when our window for check in will be opened, because we are in Spain and the countdown I think changed to our local time🤔🤔. We are sailing the 14th November. I think it will be the midnight of the 14th , 6 am of the 15th for me, but i am not sure 😢
Hi garbermaniaca! Yes, each room and reservation will need to check in separately. I am not sure what time you check in based on your time zone but typically its 30 days before sailing! I hope this helps! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
It's nice to see a vlog about this process. Really great information!
Hi Elizabeth! Thanks for watching and for the kind words, we really appreciate it! 😁
Happy Travels!
For me I wasn't able to select the port arrival time until I finished all the other sections. Very helpful guide!

Thank you so much for this! Is it the same for the other ships as well? Checking into the Magic in the fall. Can’t wait for your videos from the Wish!
Hi SheSailsAway! Thanks for watching!
Yes, it should be the same process for other ships. We hope you have a great time on Magic! 😁
Happy Travels!
You are amazingly informative thank you thank you thank you
Was it easier to checkin on your phone or laptop? On your next Disney sailing can you try to choose port arrival first and let us know if that works? Thanks!
Hi Tiffany! We always check in via phone. This method is always so easy so we do that every time! Thanks for watching! 🤗🚢❤️
This was so helpful! Thanks
Just double checking emed is approved for dcl covid test?
And thank you for telling us about emed...we used it for our flight to get home from iceland!!!
Great video!!!
Hey hey! Hope you’re doing well. Thanks for watching!
Yes, DCL accepts the test from eMed. We just used it for the Wish! 😁
Happy Travels!
Interesting the difference between Disney and Royal
Hi Dawn! Thanks for watching!
Yeah, would probably give Royal the nod here, but both processes are pretty good. 😁
Happy Travels!
If you are coming from a Disney hotel using Disney transportation do you automatically get an earlier port arrival time?
Hi Lisa! Not necessarily. It kind of depends on the bus schedule at the resort. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢

What about the luggage tags?
Hi Plan Disney! Disney will mail you luggage tags before your sailing! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
I’m very worried due to the party size, we are two rooms with 8 total to put in 😮any words of advice?
Hi linkingurl1680! I would say to make sure your two cabins are linked together in DCL's system so you will be sitting together in the restaurants.

When did the Port Arrival times open up ?
Hi Ari Mo! I believe you can pick your arrival time and begin the check in process 30 days before you're sailing! Thanks for watching!🤗❤️🚢
my last name is different then birth certificate because i took my hubbys last name so which do i use?
Are there any special instructions about the passport photo? I've heard it needs to be across two pages? Thanks in advance!
I am also wondering this!
Hi! The only specific instructions that we noticed for the passport photo is that it had to be a clear photo without any glare. We don't remember specific instructions about it being across two pages. We hope this helps! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
How soon before your cruise can you do your check in
Hi TheFreedomgal! If I am remembering correctly, I believe you can check in 30 days before sailing! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
How many days before you can make the online check in?
Hi Dahana! I believe it is 30 days when you can start online check in! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
For selecting the arrival time is this the time after our child is tested or is it part of the check in time?
Hi Ashlie! The time you pick is your arrival time to the terminal. So if someone in your party is being tested at the terminal, this would happen after that arrival time. We hope this helps and thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
@@HoffmanHappyTravels Thank you for getting back to me. I have been stressed out about this. This was so helpful!
What about military id
How much does it cost to get the test through safe passage?
Hi Elizabeth! I'm sorry, we did not use this option so we are not sure what the price is. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
