Popular Cruising's review of Star Wars Day at Sea

Last month Disney debuted their Star Wars Day at Sea on the Disney Fantasy. Popular Cruising was there to capture some of the special moments. This video is a little different from Popular Cruising's usual in that Disney folks do most of the talking.

Overall the event seems like a must for any Star Wars fan. It will be interesting to see when and how Disney rolls out the experience on future ships and cruises.

More details on the Star Wars enhancements to the Disney Dream

Star Wars fans have another reason to take a Disney Cruise. As Cruise Industry News reports, the Disney Dream will have series new enhancements after its dry dock in October, including new areas dedicated to the popular film series. The 12 and under area will look like a Lucas-style space ship and have a cockpit like the Millennium Falcon. The renovations are perfectly timed with the release of the latest episode in the film saga.

Adults will benefit from the dry dock too. Enhancements include a new splash pool and rainfall curtain. 

Disney hasn't forgotten the princess touches. The Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique -- a huge attraction at Disney Parks around the world -- will also be midship.

Look for more pictures and details as the ship comes out of its dry dock this fall. 

Laughingplace's report on Disney's meet up for Disney Cruise Line

Disney Parks' Blog regularly hosts "meet ups" for their active fan and media communities. What's nice about Disney Cruise Line-themed meet ups is that it brings Disney fan-focused media into the cruise world. That perspective is what we appreciated about Jeremiah Good's recap of the Disney Cruise Line meet up on Laughingplace.com.

Good shared plenty of photos of the event and reported on the new entertainment coming to various Disney ships. Tangled fans, Star Wars fans and of course Frozen fans will all be able to see and interact with their favorite characters on upcoming cruises.
