Sorry if this is getting sideways from the OP's original question. We have taken two Disney cruises and enjoyed them - we did a Bahamas 4 nighter on the Dream and then a 7 night Western Caribbean on the Fantasy (with a Star Wars day at sea). The last one was prior to the pandemic but we are also going on a 5 night on the Magic this August.
We're not a family who relaxes well... we like to have a lot going on. My kid also hasn't really cared about meeting other kids previously - not sure if that will be different now as a teenager but we're pretty used to just doing things together when on vacation.
There are definitely pros and cons to both of our Alaska options (
DCL and Princess). Right now I have them both booked for summer 2025 and I think we'll decide after we do our August 2024 DCL cruise. Either we'll be all in with DCL and excited to check another ship off the list (we'd only have the Triton class left if we also do the Wonder), or maybe we'll find that we're ready to try something new.
