I feel like I am there right with you. I love how you just share all the best parts of embarkation day. Aannnnddd you are making me want to visit the Wish. How fun that Brooke and Tommy were on the cruise with you too! Your excitement during trivia is all about the energy 🎉🎉 woohoooooo!!!!!!! You won 🏆 🏅 🏆 can’t wait for day 2❤❤❤
My family and I are taking our first Disney cruise in May 2024 and staying in concierge. We are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary and I have watched tons of videos about the Wish. I find your videos to be so down to earth and relatable. You make it feel like you’re hanging on vacation with your bestie 😊
Disney Cruise Line must know that every time i watch one of your videos i spend an hour or so looking at cruises to book. You influence me, for reals. So question, does the Concierge Lounge have adults only areas? Im loving that drinks are included and there is a dedicated area! Also you and Sara are so lovely to watch, just dreamy, classy ladies. 🤩
I always enjoyed watching your videos and I even watch them over and over again seeing your joy reminds me so much of why our family became dvc members. One thing puzzles me though and I have not done the math. Can you share and discuss the details on how a dvc member can still be on a dvc cruise and yet save money? I've heard from the grapevine that it's not worth it to use the points directly to a DVC cruise. Thanks!
It's absolutely NOT a good use of points to use them for a cruise but you don't HAVE to use points! Sara and I paid cash. You just have to be a DVC member with the blue card in order to book.
I miss the Wish! Love that ship. What a beautiful peek at concierge - definitely will try in the future. Something about the little gold touches throughout the room and on the stationary feels like travel in a different era!
Wow, great bag of gifts to kick off the cruise. I wish they had given tote bag like that on the 2019 DVC cruise. Bon voyage! Can't wait to see all the fun!
In true Jenn fashion, "I already know someone on the ship". A rough week here, so I had to check in on what Jenn was up to. So cool. :) Have fun ladies!
I’m sorry about the rough week. Glad this helped!!! And yeah my therapist once pointed out how much I value connection and I feel like it’s my mission to know somebody everywhere!😂
Love this. I always wanted to see a dvc cruise. The “overwhelmed. I was talking to myself” was so funny. When disney is doing it well, one is overwhelmed.
I couldn't wait to get home from work to watch this! I have got to convince my travel compadres to do a Disney cruise. They are all concerned that there is no casino. But you have shown that there are plenty of other amazing things to do or see and they wouldn't even miss a casino. Beautiful work as always Jen!
Cruiseday! Those Lorcana cards are the most valuable! Highly collectible! Congratulations for winning trivia! Hope amateur Sara wins the Blackout Bingo grand prize!
Hi Jenn!!! Crazy Bill and Vicky here!! Had a great time meeting you on the DVC cruise!!! Hope we did not drive you nuts!!! Ha ha. When is your next vacation? Hope you are doing well!!!!!
I love this vlog so much! I've never wanted to cruise on a ship so much in my life :) Looks like you had a blast so far. Concierge is on my bucket list now :) Amazing!
that was fun reliving the fantastic member cruise. We were down the hall from you (13004) and just a few people in front of you when we boarded the ship the first day. My friend is very tall and i'm not but am identifiable by my very curly dark hair. You can see us at about 4:30 in the video.
We have just sailed on the dream and our non concierge room on deck 10 was very similar to the layout of yours our daughter slept on the pull down bed she said it was comfy
I ended up sleeping so well on the other bed I never did have them make it up! And no, many (not all but many) of the deluxe family verandah rooms have them
Did you call your room attendant or put in an app request for the trundle bed to be made up? I wouldn’t have slept on a sofa bed when there’s a better option (especially at those prices)!
You were on THAT cruise!! I saw Don Hahn posting about it. So fun! I think I saw Bret Iwan and Kaitlyn Robrock were on that cruise too, weren't they? Anyway, so fun!!!
You can use points or pay cash and you only get the gifts and special entertainment for the DVC chartered member cruises which happen usually once a year
Hi Jen - we’re enjoying your Member Cruise series. It was great meeting you on the cruise and taking a selfie with you. Looking forward to seeing your future vlogs. Helga and Dave
Winning the trivia……I would be wearing that medal thing they gave you like a badge of honor!!!! & a cliff hanger at the end…..I can’t wait til next time!😊
I’m currently binging all your videos and just wanted to drop by and say how incredible you and your videos are! I’m planning to do either a Halloween cruise or visit Disney on Halloween 2024. Not sure which one I wanna do just yet! It’ll be my first time visiting a Disney resort or cruise as well!
Popcorn, Diet Coke and a Jen video!!! What an amazing Thursday night! I loved this video! Congratulations on the trivia win! Luna lounge was our favorite spot. We played the music trivias and did the silent disco.
How was deck 13? My cruise on the Treasure will be deck 13 (so we could be near my Mom in her handicap Accessible cabin.) Was there a lot of noise from above in your cabin?
Hi Jen. Me again. I'm still waiting for official Disney feedback on the DVCMC gifts I created for this year's sailing. What did you think of them? Honest opinion please :)
Hey Jen, I tried to enter the contest on Instagram but it won’t let me comment, it says you have it limited, do you know why that’s happening? I would love to win and share the goodies with my kids and hubby. That hat would be so perfect for him, the card game would be so fun to get into with my son!
Oh I wish I could experience my first Disney park and a cruise with you. I want to look for ducks, do a fish extender, pixie dust. Just need to win lotto first 😂
I think I need to go on a membership cruise! Looks so fun! Dreaming of Wish Concierge in a 2026. Big vacations planned before that (Aulani & Ireland). Thank you for sharing your experience. Have a Magical Day!🚢👍🏻
Booked Orlando Transportation by Mike on your wonderful reviews! With a toddler and an infant we felt it was worth the splurge! Is 20% an adequate tip in the US or more? Want to have cash on hand for the driver🥰
Yay another Jen video and it didn’t disappoint!! I absolutely love your videos so much! They are just so real. I always thought by staying concierge you have a more glamorous room, so I was a little confused when you showed the room and they looked like the regular ones. So my logical guess is there are different levels but you do get the perks of concierge? I would love the perks myself🤗
@@JenLefforge Omgosh I get it now! I would skip the expense of a suite but totally love the perks of concierge! I learn something new every time I watch! Can’t wait for more of your vlogs on this trip! Thank you!!
Was the question about Spaceship Earth or Ray Bradbury's story turned film by Disney ("Something Wicked This Way Comes")? And good for you for knowing whatever question it was! @@JenLefforge
Sailing on the Wish in February 2024. Taking our grandson who is Autistic for his first cruise. Can’t wait to see his smiles and share in his excitement!
Why didn’t you request twin beds then you could of had a proper bed each.. This is going to be a fun blog with Sarah…..let the magic begin! Can’t believe you’re treating us to another amazing Disney cruise blog….so happy. 👍🇬🇧
This is actually my business so the business pays for my travel. But yes I am very lucky and I'm very proud of the business I've built and that I'm able to take these trips!
hi jen i met you when you went to the cruise with Adam love your room and all the goodies you receive 🐵and I can't enter to the giveaway because instagram limited the comments
I can’t imagine your first Disney cruise being concierge! I would never be able to go back in an ordinary room 😂
I feel like I am there right with you. I love how you just share all the best parts of embarkation day. Aannnnddd you are making me want to visit the Wish. How fun that Brooke and Tommy were on the cruise with you too! Your excitement during trivia is all about the energy 🎉🎉 woohoooooo!!!!!!! You won 🏆 🏅 🏆 can’t wait for day 2❤❤❤

What a kind comment - thank you so much!
Fabulous! You make me want to splurge on concierge! (Lol, I rhymed!) 🤣🤣 I can hardly wait for the next video. Thanks, so much, for sharing!
Looking forward to our family's wish cruise with concierge in november :)
That’s so funny I’m staying in that exact room for my Disney cruise next October!
One thing, I love about a Disney cruise is how they introduce you at the beginning make it feel so special
Disney Cruise Line must know that every time i watch one of your videos i spend an hour or so looking at cruises to book. You influence me, for reals. So question, does the Concierge Lounge have adults only areas? Im loving that drinks are included and there is a dedicated area!

Oh thank you, Marina! And they know….😜😎😂
Tommy's face when you won trivia was the best!!!!!
With the trivia win!!! That's hilarious that you thought you were doing bad. 😆
Aaaaaaand there I am with my husband right behind you in line before entering Arendelle! Hahaha!
Oh how fun!! Love it, Barbara!

okay double commenting but i literally GASPED and said “BROOKE!” when she came onscreen - truly a celebrity of your channel 🥰
She's one of my closest friends and I'm so glad she and Tommy were with us!
My husband and I sang the same thing when we won 80s music trivia last year!!!
NICE ❤
“ FOR a MOMENT LIKE THIS “
Enjoy …the HAPPY HORMONES 🥳
Thank you, Lili!
The swag bag and the beautiful book and the blanket are amazing! LOVE the concierge lounge and deck. Then Brooke shows up? Even better. Love this!
Yeah, it was an amazing cruise!
"we're not doing well" and they win! lol I LOVE IT
There's a lesson there about life . . you just never know . . .
This is the cruise of a lifetime!!
Me pretending I’m the Sara you are speaking to💁🏻♀️🤣
PLEASE DO! I love that.
Same. 😂
My exact thoughts!!! 😂🎉
Omg me too! Lol.
Same! 😂
Your vlogs are the highlight of my day! We appreciate you! Sending love from the UK!
Love to hear that, Emma! Thank you!
I'm loving the shiny floors in your WDW DVC room - very nice and clean!
I miss the Wish! Love that ship. What a beautiful peek at concierge - definitely will try in the future. Something about the little gold touches throughout the room and on the stationary feels like travel in a different era!
YES very QE2 and gorgeous!
Good luck Brooke and see you in Berlin for the Marathon 🙂
Sara is so spoiled. A DVC member cruise, and Concierge!! Doesn't get any better than this.
SHE IS and she deserves it! One of the hardest working doctors and mothers I know.
I think for what you pay for any Disney cruise you should always get concierge level service and perks.
Wow, great bag of gifts to kick off the cruise. I wish they had given tote bag like that on the 2019 DVC cruise. Bon voyage! Can't wait to see all the fun!
Not me thinking you said you could see *Nassau* from Port Canaveral. Had a moment when I was like "wow they are that close" 😂
I must have said it weird because when I was editing I was like WHAT did I just say? Not just you!
In true Jenn fashion, "I already know someone on the ship". A rough week here, so I had to check in on what Jenn was up to. So cool. :) Have fun ladies!
I’m sorry about the rough week. Glad this helped!!! And yeah my therapist once pointed out how much I value connection and I feel like it’s my mission to know somebody everywhere!😂
This looks like so much fun! As a fellow empty nester, I love watching you enjoy Disney too. I
I think I want to take a cruise with you Jenn! You are just so excited
We do have fun!
So much fun. Looking forward to the rest of the videos. ❤️😘
Love this. I always wanted to see a dvc cruise. The “overwhelmed. I was talking to myself” was so funny. When disney is doing it well, one is overwhelmed.
Right? I have to pace myself!
Ain’t nothing wrong with a glass of KC Sauvignon blanc … my favorite wine!!
I'm saying if you know you know!
I couldn't wait to get home from work to watch this! I have got to convince my travel compadres to do a Disney cruise. They are all concerned that there is no casino. But you have shown that there are plenty of other amazing things to do or see and they wouldn't even miss a casino. Beautiful work as always Jen!
There is SO MUCH to do and I didn't even show all of it!

Stella at Orlando Transportation by Mike is wonderful!
Hi Jenn!!! Crazy Bill and Vicky here!! Had a great time meeting you on the DVC cruise!!! Hope we did not drive you nuts!!! Ha ha. When is your next vacation? Hope you are doing well!!!!!
You were an absolute joy! I’m leaving for Greece tomorrow!
Loved this, going on my first cruise next fall and the you are really making me want do conceirge level.
It's such a splurge but it really was spectacular.
Love love love your videos found you from your videos with Adam Hatton thank you for sharing x
I'm so glad you're here! Welcome!
@@JenLefforge thank you cannot wait for many more great videos x
I love this vlog so much! I've never wanted to cruise on a ship so much in my life :) Looks like you had a blast so far. Concierge is on my bucket list now :) Amazing!

It really was.
I love you Jen!!!!! Great embarkation day vlog❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Rina!
We have just sailed on the dream and our non concierge room on deck 10 was very similar to the layout of yours our daughter slept on the pull down bed she said it was comfy
❤ this...wondering if you slept on the pull down at some point...and are those only available in concierge?
I ended up sleeping so well on the other bed I never did have them make it up! And no, many (not all but many) of the deluxe family verandah rooms have them
Did you call your room attendant or put in an app request for the trundle bed to be made up? I wouldn’t have slept on a sofa bed when there’s a better option (especially at those prices)!
I was very comfortable where I was and slept great so didn’t even think about it until later
Anyone else gasp nd say omg BB Brooke 😂😂😂
You were on THAT cruise!! I saw Don Hahn posting about it. So fun! I think I saw Bret Iwan and Kaitlyn Robrock were on that cruise too, weren't they? Anyway, so fun!!!
Yes they were! It was an amazing experience. So happy I had the opportunity to go!
I have never really wanted to experience the wish. that was until this vlog. I think your series may end up swaying me!
Oh I'm so glad! It's really a lovely ship. Not my FAVORITE ship (that's the Dream) but the restaurants are exceptional.
So do you get all of this when you use points to sail? This is a fantastic gift!
You can use points or pay cash and you only get the gifts and special entertainment for the DVC chartered member cruises which happen usually once a year
Gee thanks Jen. Now I HAVE to stay concierge sometime just to try it.
Whoops - I'm always costing people money, aren't I, Sara?
Hi Jen - we’re enjoying your Member Cruise series. It was great meeting you on the cruise and taking a selfie with you. Looking forward to seeing your future vlogs. Helga and Dave

How was deck 13? My cruise on the Treasure will be deck 13 (so we could be near my Mom in her handicap Accessible cabin.) Was there a lot of noise from above in your cabin?
Completely quiet I never heard a sound

Yeah seriously it was a lot even for me!😂

Dreaming of Wish Concierge in a 2026. Big vacations planned before that (Aulani & Ireland). Thank you for sharing your experience. Have a Magical Day!🚢👍🏻
Thanks for watching! You too!
So fun! And educational- I did not know that the little gift was a zipper pull. Am wondering what it goes with… 🤔.
I guess just whatever you have? And I didn’t get the haunted mansion one because I guess you had to go down to Marcelina market for that one
@@JenLefforge - oh shoot, that would be a good one. I just put it on my car key fab. 🤷🏻♀️
Even though it was hot as blue blazes outside, didn’t I see you with a (white) jacket on at some point? Is it chilly onboard?
I mean, as is typical anywhere in the hot summer, the areas that have AC are quite cool.
Wait - so alcohol (beer, wine and spirits) AND specialty coffee is ALL included with concierge pricing?
If you get it from the concierge lounge - then yes, those are all included!

Yes they are we just didn’t use ours
@@JenLefforge thanks! My goal is to be on a cruise that you’re on one day😊

Congratulations on doing so bad in the quiz....😂😂 you won!! loving it so far..👍🇬🇧
Loved to see the wish again…. My daughter went to college in ohio with her friend “oaken”… ;)
Oh how fun is that!
This might make me want to do concierge some day….
I mean, it's definitely not something I could do normally but since Sara and I were splitting the cost we could make it work. SO FUN!
You must be so wealthy to travel so much.
So lucky
This is actually my business so the business pays for my travel. But yes I am very lucky and I'm very proud of the business I've built and that I'm able to take these trips!
that pasta looks so good though… one vegetarian to another ☺️

I mean, I know you like the pasta, but it is pretty sad that they haven’t changed the embarkation lunch menu in 14 years!!!
