Hello Richard!
Thank you for visiting planDisney. I'm delighted to help you with your question about
Disney Cruise Line. It's wonderful to hear that you're planning a future cruise!
Yes, the placeholder money you pay when you book a
placeholder on a Disney Cruise Line vacation does go towards your future cruise. When you pay the deposit for a placeholder, that amount is applied as a credit towards the deposit for your next cruise.
I always recommend booking a placeholder when on board because it’s a convenient way to save on your next adventure, locking in some savings and keeping the magic of Disney Cruise Line vacations going. By taking advantage of our special onboard-only booking offer, you can save on a
future Disney Cruise Line vacation. When you book a placeholder, you’ll enjoy a 10% discount off prevailing rates as quoted on Disneycruise.com and a reduced deposit on 7-night or longer sailings. This is a fantastic way to secure a discount on a future booking while you’re still enjoying your current cruise.
I hope this information is helpful, Richard. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask. Have a magical time planning your next Disney Cruise Line adventure!
Happy Planning!
