Ahoy again, Larry, and welcome back to planDisney! Looks like we got a few messages in a bottle from you in quick succession! Happy to uncork this one, too!
We like to say a Disney Cruise Line vacation is "three vacations in one" - a luxury cruise, a beach vacation, and everything you've come to expect from Disney! While every cruise includes Disney Magic,
incredible gourmet dining, amazing
Broadway-caliber shows,
family entertainment,
and much more, it does not include free Park Tickets to
Walt Disney World Resort.
However, what you CAN do is add a stay at Walt Disney World Resort to your Disney Cruise Line Vacation in what we call
Disney Vacations by Land and Sea! This gives you the best of both worlds, and will allow you to experience some - or all - of "
The World's Most Magical Celebration" going on now! To learn more about your options combining your Disney Cruise Line vacation with Walt Disney World Resort,
you can call a crew member directly and they can help you decide on the best course to set! It's always a great time to visit and now is no exception.
A quick planDrew-approved tip: I love Walt Disney World Resort as much as the next panelist, but the amount of relaxation available on a Disney Cruise Line vacation is unmatched - so if it works for your schedule, I highly suggest you plan to sail AFTER your whirlwind visit to Walt Disney World Resort! That way, you've got nothing but blue skies and sunshine on the horizon!
I hope that helps you chart that course for a FOUR-in-one vacation, Larry, and thank you so much for bringing us your questions! I wish you the best of luck as you continue on the journey of vacation planning for you and your crew! If you need more assistance at any point along the way, you know where to find us here at planDisney!
Fair winds and following seas,
Andrew
