Pricing
Menu items at Royal Court are included in your cruise fare. There is no additional charge outside of specialty items, like alcoholic drinks.
Attire
Royal Court recommended attire, according to Disney, is "cruise casual" - including collared shirts, slacks, or jeans (no rips) for men, and blouses, sundresses, or pants for women, with no swimwear, tank tops, or flip-flops.
How to reserve
When booking your cruise, you choose between Early Dining (5:45 p.m.) or Late Dining (8:15 p.m.) for U.S./Canadian sailings, or 6:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. for European sailings (e.g., Mediterranean, Alaskan). These times align with show schedules in the Walt Disney Theatre, so early diners attend the late show (8:00 p.m.) and late diners attend the early show (6:00 p.m.). Simply log into your Disney Cruise LIne account prior to boarding to select your dining time. You can also ask your travel agent for help.
How to purchase
Reservations are not required at Royal Court due to Disney's unique rotational dining system, which automatically assigns guests to one of three themed main dining rooms each night of the cruise. However, you must select a dining time when booking, and there are options to adjust or customize your dining experience.
Age restrictions
Royal Court, like most public areas of your Disney ship, requires that children under 13 years old must be supervised by an adult, especially during late-night hours.
Good to know
