Ahoy, Deborah!
Welcome home, and welcome to planDisney!
Thank you for visiting us today to ask your question. I love helping fellow
Disney Vacation Club Members make the most of their membership.
Deborah, it sounds like you're planning to spend Christmas 2025 on the high seas, and let me tell you, I'm as green as the Incredible Hulk with envy! I recently had the opportunity to sail aboard the beautiful
Disney Wish with my fellow planDisney panellists, and it also happened to be a
Very Merrytime Cruise. The festive atmosphere was incredible, and I became a cruise convert instantly!
Here's some great news: the
Disney Treasure, which recently set sail on her maiden voyage, will embark on a 7-night Christmas voyage from Port Canaveral in 2025. Captain Minnie will stop the ship at St. Thomas, Tortola, and Disney's private island,
Castaway Cay.
As a Disney Vacation Club Member eligible for Membership Extras, you can use your Vacation Points to book your cruise by converting them into Reservation Points. The full
point charts and
booking details are available on the Disney Vacation Club
website. When you're ready to book, simply contact
Member Services and a Cast Member will be happy to help.
A couple of key points to keep in mind, at least one member of your travel party must be booked entirely with Vacation Points. Other members can be booked with cash or Vacation Points, but not a combination of both. A non-refundable transaction fee of $95 (subject to change) will be charged at the time of booking.
Additionally, if you've opted into the annual
Membership Magic Beyond program, you'll enjoy enhanced benefits, such as having the $95 transaction fee waived when exchanging points for Disney Collection experiences, including Disney Cruise Line (offers subject to change).
I hope this answers your question, Deborah! If you have more questions about your Disney Vacation Club membership or planning your Disney Cruise Line adventure, don't hesitate to reach out. For more cruise-specific tips, my good friends
Dustin and
Sami are experts in all things Disney on the high seas!
Have a magical day,
Matt
