Ahoy there, Nadia, and welcome aboard planDisney! We're always glad to see Guests looking to plan Disney Cruises as far in advance as possible, because hey, that's what we do, too!
Simply put, Disney Cruise Line usually releases schedules around 15 months in advance, so the summer of 2024 is likely to be announced in the spring of 2023! Though I should stress that when I say "usually," I mean it - this can change at any time!
Still, if history repeats itself, and although summer 2023 was announced in very late spring, the itineraries for 2024 could be released be released in less than a year! HOWEVER, until they are released, there are a few "planDrew-approved" ways to prepare for when they do release!
- I suggest starting by looking at current itineraries to get an idea of what may be available when you are hoping to cruise. From shorter Bahamian itineraries to Transatlantic crossings, checking out what Ports of Call you'd like to see or what port you'd like to sail out of are other good starting points!
- Depending on the size of your crew, you may want to look at multiple statrooms to split your crew into the most comfortable arrangements available! There are even adjoining staterooms that can help you have the space to spread out, without the premium that comes with Concierge accommodations!
- Speaking of staterooms, don't forget that you can book up to four staterooms on a single reservation if you need to plan for a larger party!
I hope that helps clear up your question, Nadia! Thank you so much for sailing my way with your question, and if any others surface while you wait for the 2024 itineraries to come over the horizon, please send another message in a bottle my way here at planDisney!
Fair winds and following seas!
