What time do you get off a Disney cruise in Miami?

Remember, no matter what time you choose to debark the ship, you will need to be out of your stateroom by 8:00 a.m. and you are required to clear through U.S. Customs before exiting the terminal. The lines typically move quickly, but this depends on how many other Guests debark at the same time.

Staterooms are typically ready around 1:30 p.m. on the day of your voyage. Luggage may not arrive for a few hours afterward, so I recommend that you bring a swimsuit and coverup in a carry-on bag if you'd like to enjoy the pools onboard shortly after boarding.

The best time to board a cruise ship is obviously when there are few lines and short waits. The trick is knowing when that will be. Unfortunately, it can vary from port to port and ship to ship, but I prefer arriving in the early afternoon, usually around 1 or 2 p.m.

As much as we're sure Disney would like to, they don't control the weather. Depending on when and where you sail, you're likely to find that temperatures on cooler weather itineraries average in the 40s-60s during the day – you're unlikely to encounter anything truly frigid during any DCL trip.
