Ahoy there, Pat! Welcome to planDisney. Thanks for sailing our way as you plan for your first Disney Cruise!
There is nothing like being welcomed onboard for your very first sailing and I can't wait for you to experience all of the magic of a Disney Cruise! With
something for everyone in your sailing party to enjoy, it's going to be one incredible vacation. And you are already well on your way to becoming a planning expert because you know about the special placeholder offer. When you book a placeholder onboard, you can enjoy a discounted cruise fare and reduced deposit for most sailings as long as it is within 24 months of the date you secured your placeholder.
Yes, you will be able to use a travel agent on your future sailing. Be sure to use the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app to secure your placeholder while sailing. Then, when you return home from your Disney Cruise, reach out to your travel agent and let them know that you have a placeholder that you would like to transfer to them. The agent will be able to send a transfer form your way to fill out and sign. You will have 30 days from booking your placeholder to transfer it to an agent, so be sure to do so within the allotted time frame. The travel agent you choose can guide you through the easy process.
Pat, you are going to have an amazing time! Be sure to download the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app prior to setting sail. The app can count down the seconds till your adventure begins! It also has a new feature where you can explore more about your ship and itinerary. You can even reserve activities through the app when your advance booking window opens. Once onboard, the app will guide you to all of the fun happening around the ship with the daily activity schedule. There will be so much that you don't want to miss!
Please sail our way again at planDisney with any future questions you might have. My pals and I are here to help!
Happy planning,
Adrianna
