We just got off the Disney Treasure after a 7-night Eastern Caribbean concierge sailing — and we're coming in hot with opinions. From a live check-in system meltdown to an unexpected medical diversion, a straitjacket-escape magician suspended from the ceiling of the Walt Disney Theater, and the real verdict on Disney's brand-new Mickey and Minnie Cove Cabanas at Castaway Cay, this is our most honest Treasure review yet.
We're also joined in the pre-show by Danny from DCL Magazine, who shares news about the magazine's inaugural print issue landing in mailboxes now and the launch of the Parks and Pages podcast.
In this episode:
- Disney's new Wave check-in system is causing real chaos at ports — what you need to know before your next sailing
- The ship diverted mid-cruise for a medical emergency, including a call for crew blood donations — and the captain docked in rough seas
- The new Mickey and Minnie Cove Cabanas at Castaway Cay: our honest (and strong) hot take
- Concierge food on the Treasure has leveled up significantly — including full Palo lasagna served as a kids' meal in the lounge
- Broadway performers Nasha and Elissa brought down the house in Sarabi — and Brian became an unwilling participant in the show
- Magician Jessica Jane (who fooled Penn & Teller) did things on the Walt Disney Theater main stage we've never seen done at sea
- Third-party excursions in Tortola and St. Thomas: why we use them and what to look for in a reputable provider
"Friends tell each other the truth. And it is not in my estimation, those Mickey and Minnie cabanas are not worth the price, especially if you're on an eastern sailing, getting in late." — Brian
