Hello there, Shalene! Welcome to planDisney. Thanks for cruising to us with your question.
I think your plans for sailing into the new year of 2024 with an Eastern Caribbean itinerary are fantastic! As of today, the complete itinerary list has not been released for early 2024. That means that more sailings will be announced and I'm thinking it will be in the near future. Historically, these announcements for the fleet are released in the fall. It could be any day now!
You can track the announcement by either visiting the
Disney Cruise Line website or checking out the
Disney Parks Blog. Both sites will share the news generally a few days before the sailings are open to book.
Castaway Club Members will have early access to make reservations and the dates that they can do so will be announced when the itineraries are released.
Disney's private island,
Castaway Cay, is often a port of call for Eastern Caribbean cruises. It's the perfect island getaway with relaxing beaches, a delicious BBQ lunch, and many activities to choose from. My family doesn't miss the opportunity to snorkel or take a bike ride any time we visit. You can take a peek at the
Port Adventures offered for Castaway Cay as you are dreaming of your upcoming plans.
As this is your first cruise, (yay!) please make sure you download the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app. Your app will link with your reservation, and you'll be able to
reserve onboard activities using the app 75 days prior to your sail date. You can also use the app to check in for your sailing 30 days before your vacation begins. Lastly, while onboard, the app will be your personal guide to all of the activities happening around the ship.
Please cruise back to planDisney if you have any further questions. My pals and I want to make sure your plans are shipshape as you prepare for adventure onboard.
Happy Planning,
Adrianna
