Disney Fantasy Cruising: 2023 Restaurant Guide

Disney Cruises have a lot to offer, like letting you experience the magic of Disney while sailing around to different locations!

Disney Fantasy

You can find exclusive entertainment, special themed days at sea, holiday celebrations, attractions, and more. There is also a lot of exclusive dining available! If you’re planning a Disney cruise, the dining options are an important thing to consider, since it’s not like you can just order from DoorDash if you’re not feeling the options! So, let’s take a look at ALL of the dining available on the Disney Fantasy!

Rotational Dining

All of the Disney Cruise ships have Rotational Dining, which means that guests on board rotate between three main table service restaurants for dinner during their cruise. The wait staff also rotates with the restaurants! Guests do not HAVE to eat at the restaurants included in Rotational Dining, but other dinner spots not included in the rotation will cost you extra money.
