Welcome aboard, Denise! You haven't yet sailed with Disney, and you're already planning your second cruise? You sound just like me! We chose our second sailing date before we left on our first cruise so that we could re-book onboard and take advantage of the special offers available.
The future cruise desk is where you can meet with a Disney Cruise specialist who will help you book your next magical cruise. If you know you are going to re-book, I suggest doing so early on in your cruise, as these desks get busy later in the week. When re-booking onboard, Disney is currently offering 10% off your next cruise, and an onboard credit on your next cruise of $100 for cruises less than seven nights, or $200 for seven or more nights. You will only need to deposit 10% of the cost of your next cruise instead of the higher deposit when booking elsewhere.
If you would like to have four adults and two children in the same room, you will need to book one of Disney Cruise Line's magnificent
suites, which you can read about on Disney Cruise Line's website. However, there are adjoining staterooms available if you don't choose a suite. On the Magic and Wonder there are a limited amount, so you would want to be sure you book early. The Dream and Fantasy have many more staterooms with adjoining doors, so your options are greater there. When my extended family joined us on the Disney Dream, we had adjoining Verandah rooms. This was wonderful because the partition separating each verandah can be folded back to make one long verandah. The kids thought that was a lot of fun, and it did create quite a bit of space for us.
I hope these tips help, Denise! Enjoy your first (and later second!) Disney cruise!
