Ahoy, Shirly!
The day Disney Cruise Line releases new
itineraries is as exciting as Christmas morning! It is always fun to see where the ships are headed and from which departure port they will set sail. Over the years, I've often booked our cruises on opening day because the rates are typically lowest around that time. Historically, rates do tend to rise as the sail date approaches. If you happen to find your cruise fare goes down, you can call
Disney Cruise Line to have the difference credited to your account. Special offers are usually on new bookings only. If a special does come out, you may have to completely rebook your reservation to take advantage of the offer. I've noticed that Disney Cruise Line does not offer specials like the Walt Disney World Resort and the Disneyland Resort so your best bet is going to be to book early.
My advice is to check out the
Special Offers page as you plan and call Disney Cruise Line at (800) 951-3532 if you have any further questions once you are ready to book.
Shirly, thank you for cruising by! We hope to hEAR from you again as you continue to plan for a magical voyage aboard Disney Cruise Line in 2018!
Have a wonderful day!
Nancy
