Hello there, Julia Maria! Thank you for visiting planDisney. Welcome!
I'm so happy that you thought to cruise our way as you plan for a Disney Cruise in 2024. I'm a big believer in planning ahead and you are doing just that. As a general rule, Disney Cruise Line typically releases bookings by season and approximately 15 months in advance. For example, you can estimate sailings in the summer of 2024 to be announced in the spring of 2023. While the itineraries for 2024 have not yet been released, there are a few things that you can do to prepare and plan for your vacation in the meantime.
To begin, you can
search through current offerings to view embarkation ports and itineraries to get an idea of what may be available when you are hoping to cruise. You can refer to the
Disney Cruise Line planning tools for more information and help as you narrow down your choices in destinations. With a sailing party of ten guests, you may enjoy using a trusted travel agent to help you book your vacation. Ask around for recommendations from friends or family to find an agent you'd like to work with. Travel agents offer their services for free and can be very helpful in coordinating a larger group. If you'd rather take care of the details on your own, you are able to book up to four staterooms when making your cruise reservation. If members of your travel group book their own staterooms, you can later
link your reservations to ensure that you are seated together for evening meal times and to easily coordinate your travel plans.
As far as payment plans go, Disney Cruise Line does not offer a traditional payment plan. You will be required to pay a deposit upon initially booking a stateroom with the remaining payment due at a later time. You can make partial payments as you wish towards your cruise fare between the time you reserve your stateroom and the time that the cruise fare is to be paid in full. You have the flexibility to create your own payment timeline as long as you pay your full amount by the date required.
I hope that helps clear up your question! Please sail our way again if you have any more questions between now and 2024. There is plenty of time to plan the vacation of your dreams! With
all that is included in a Disney Cruise and with all of the entertainment that is offered for
guests of all ages, it is sure to be a fantastic vacation.
Happy Planning,
Adrianna
