I hope that you have a blast on the Dream!! Everglades is definitely different; I was glad to be able to show so much of it so that others knew it going in
Great video. I have two cruises booked on the Dream out of Fort Lauderdale and it’s interesting to see how different the cruise terminal is there. Can’t wait to get your opinion on everything. When I cruise in September I am planning to stay in the Fort Lauderdale area before the cruise. But I have a concierge cruise booked in 2026 and we’re gonna probably drive to Port Everglades. Thanks for sharing your experiences. My next cruise is my 11th cruise, so I officially will be Platinum!🚢🚢🚢🚢
Hi! Christy and Tom here from Indiana - what a joy meeting you and Brian after dinner at Enchanted Garden. Really appreciate your content and that you take us along on so many fun adventures! Agree with all your embarkation day tips - although this time we decided to order the All Hand’s on Deck from room service (complementary - just tip your crew member!) to enjoy with the Prosecco we brought in our carry-on and watched sail away from our verandah! So relaxing and a nice break from all the hustle and bustle of embarkation day. But o if you haven’t seen a Sail Away party it’s a must do!!
Christy and Tom!!! HI!!👋 amen and amen to the All Hands on Deck! I love your tip…what a great way to sail away! It was so wonderful getting to meet you both last week!❤️🛳️
Woww this was so helpful! I’m so glad I found your video. My family and I are going on our first cruise ever next month on the Disney fantasy. This has helped so much. You mentioned that even when your children were younger, you love second seating. I am nervous about us having second seating with our littles. Could you tell me what you loved about second seating even with little kids? Thank you!
@@heatherbender we loved getting to have the whole day in port if we wanted it without having to cut things short to get cleaned up for dinner and the show. That being said, I completely understand your hesitation! Go with your gut; it’s going to be wonderful either way❤️🚢✨
Great video! I’m wondering when doing back to back cruises on the same ship from the same port… is the procedure for debarking and re-embarking the same day different? Do they handle luggage differently etc…? Thanks!
Great information as always ❤️
Thank you for your informative, accurate, and personable reviews.
You're so welcome! Thanks so much for watching, Steven!
Thanks for the video. We'll be on the Dream next month, so it's good seeing what Port Everglades is like. Definitely not the same as Port Canaveral.

Thanks!

We come with bathing suits on and head straight to the aquaduck and pools! What night is pirate night on your 5 night cruise?
Hi Deni - great video! Very informative! I’m just looking at doing my first cruise sometime in the next year.
My tip is that embarkation day is chaotic. Do not think you HAVE to do it all. Slow down and get your berrings!!!
@@larathompson7721 amen, Lara! You’re 100% right! Deep, cleansing breaths for everyone❤️
Thanks Deni!
Glad to see you cruising and giving us a look at the Dream 🤩
@@sophiebrousseau7974 thanks so much for watching along, Sophie!
Bon voyage! ⛴️

Yes and yes! I’ll be doing a video all on the back-to-back process❤️
@ Awesome, thanks Deni!
