My “kids” are adults 20 & 22 yrs old now. That said, I’ve sailed without them probably more than with. Why? Nostalgia. I’ll just be honest. It took Disney to even get me to try a cruise. I’ve sailed 22 cruises across 3 cruise lines in the past 6.5 years, 16 of those with Disney. I enjoy them all, I’m not one of those who will only do Disney or only like Disney. I won’t sit here and sing about how Disney is so much better than other lines. Others are different but, in my experience, not necessarily better. We come back to Disney and do Disney regardless of our kid-status because of nostalgia plain & simple. I was raised a Disney kid. My kids are Disney kids. I converted my husband to a Disney-phile. We come back because it’s emotionally comfortable and nostalgic. That’s it. When I sail Disney it’s for the ship more than it is the destination. For port-heavy itineraries I don’t think I’d spend the Disney premium. But if I’m going to be on the ship a lot like Panama Canal, yeah, Disney for that emotional comfort-level.
The only thing in my experiences that I’ll sit here and tell you without a shadow of a doubt, if you’re making choices with the private island destinations being a heavy weight in the decision....Disney. DISNEY. I’ve been to 2 other private island destinations. Both I found myself looking around thinking, “Now I know what’s that Disney premium really gets me.”
