01 · TERMINAL
Cruise Terminal 8 (Disney)
9155 Charles Rowland Dr., Cape Canaveral, FL 32920
Drop-off: CT-8 is Disney's dedicated terminal — you'll know you're in the right place when the building starts looking magical. It's on Charles Rowland Dr on the north side of the port, in the group Port Canaveral signs as the A Terminals, so take SR-528 Exit 54A rather than 54B and follow the port signs to Terminal 8. The drop-off area is well-organized with Disney Cast Members directing traffic. Porters will take your checked luggage and tag it with your stateroom number. Tip $2-3 per bag.
PARKING
Park in the CT-8 parking area ($20/day plus tax, covering the day of arrival and the day of departure). Parking is cashless — major credit cards only — and paid on arrival; no reservations are accepted. Disney Cast Members will direct you to available spaces, and the walk to the terminal is short.

02 · BOARD
Boarding: Disney Cruise Line online check-in typically opens 30 days before sailing for first-time guests, and earlier for Castaway Club members depending on tier. Your Port Arrival Time is chosen during online check-in, and Disney typically asks guests to arrive within that window.

- □ Use the arrival time printed in your boarding documents Your cruise line's current documents are the source of truth for check-in.
- □ Keep one small day bag with anything you need before your cabin is ready You may board before cabins and checked luggage are available.
