    I made reservations for my 75th birthday Alaska cruise with my family on 5/5, first day available to me. I had to put my name on each of the reservations, there are 3 staterooms in addition to my wife and I. How can I go about changing names?

    Hello, welcome to planDisney, Ames, we wish you a very Happy Birthday and we thank you for stopping by! 

    What a "Wonder-ful" way to celebrate a birthday, sailing with Disney Cruise Line with an Alaskan sailing and with your family, how very special this will be, Ames, congratulations!

    My advice is to contact your original source of booking and depending on the type of cruise fare booked, changes may be possible. If you booked online or via telephone with Disney Cruise Line kindly contact Disney Cruise Line at your earliest convenience. Ames, if you booked regular cruise fare for each stateroom and depending on how early you make these name changes, you may possibly avoid a change of name fee per passenger. Typically for name changes 45 days or more before your regular cruise fare sailing, you will avoid a fee per name change. For name changes less than 45 days a per person fee will apply - I avoid stating fees as they are subject to change. For cruise fares booked under the restricted fare category then any changes will not be possible (subject to change). Kindly refer to the Disney Cruise Line Terms and Conditions for Residents of the United States for greater detail as Disney Cruise Line reserves the right of restriction for changes pending availability. 

    Tips:
    Sign in to, or register for your Disney Cruise Line account and under My Reservations, you can manage your travel party by linking all stateroom reservations through the online system in order to further coordinate stateroom locations, and arrange Disney Cruise Line Rotational Dining seating, activities, and Port Adventures. Since you booked all three staterooms, once reservations are linked, you will be able to see each stateroom reservation and confirmation number in your planning area online or using the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App.

    Download the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App to manage your plans before and during your sailing and even communicate with fellow cruise mates using the Onboard Chat feature.

    During your sailing, Ames, consider a future sailing through the Disney Cruise Line Onboard-Only Offer which you can book using the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App or by visiting the Future Cruise Sales Desk near the Atrium Lobby - the incentives are desirable, presenting you with a variety of available itineraries and selection of staterooms! You may even consider booking on our newest ship, the Disney Wish!

    Don't forget to advise Disney Cruise Line at least 3 weeks prior to sailing that it's your birthday - you can order a cake for your celebratory dinner and even adorn your stateroom via In-Room Gifts and Amenities if you wish!

    Ames, it was a pleasure assisting you today, and I wish you the happiest birthday on the Disney Wonder!

    Ahoy,
    Jacqueline
