ROTATIONAL DINING

The serving team follows the family through three main dining rooms.

Disney Fantasy's main rotational restaurants are Animator's Palate, Enchanted Garden and Royal Court. The assigned rotation and table number appear in Navigator and on the Key to the World card.

On a four-night cruise, one restaurant repeats. Menus and entertainment can change, so the live dining schedule controls. Tell the dining team about allergies and special requests instead of assuming a note follows the family into every venue automatically.

Guests are assigned an early or second dinner seating. Main-stage showtimes are generally scheduled so each seating can attend a performance, but the actual dining and entertainment times in Navigator control the evening plan.

BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND POOL-DECK FOOD

Cabanas and Flo's Cafe solve different kinds of hunger.

Cabanas is the ship's casual free-flow dining venue for breakfast and lunch. Scan the stations before filling plates, choose a family meeting table and start children with small portions.

Flo's Cafe is the Deck 11 outdoor quick-service hub. Its counters can offer pizza, burgers, chicken, salads, sandwiches, tacos, burritos and bowls. Individual counter hours vary, so check Navigator.

ROOM SERVICE

Most menu food is included and service is available around the clock for most of the voyage.

Some packaged snacks, canned beverages, alcohol and specially marked items cost extra. Service ends during the final overnight, so the current menu and cutoff in Navigator control.

For continental breakfast, use the paper order form typically stored in the desk drawer and hang it outside the stateroom door by the printed deadline. Gratuity is discretionary; many families use about one dollar per plated item as a practical guideline, not as an official Disney rule.

COFFEE AND BEVERAGES

Regular coffee is included; specialty coffee costs extra.

Cove Cafe on Deck 11 is adults-only and sells specialty coffee, tea and other beverages. Vista Cafe on Deck 4 overlooks the atrium and is available to families as scheduled. Specialty drinks at both locations cost extra.

Fountain soft drinks, regular coffee, tea and water from the self-service beverage station are generally included. Bottled drinks, bar service, smoothies, alcohol and specialty coffee are additional purchases.
