    We prepaid a deposit on our last cruise for a future cruise. How do we take advantage of that when booking the next cruise.

    Ahoy there, Sandi! Thanks for taking the time to stop by planDisney with your question for us.

    I’m so glad to see you’ve taken advantage of the onboard-only booking offer while you were still sailing on your last cruise. We always snag this offer towards the end of our sailings because I find it easier to beat the “post-cruise blues” knowing I have an upcoming Disney cruise in the near future! A great plus to this offer is the automatic cancellation if we are unable to cruise within 24 months. 

    As you figure out where and when you plan to take your next Disney cruise, be sure your upcoming sailing commences within 24 months of when your Placeholder Reservation was made. Also, I suggest referring to the list of Onboard-Only Offer blockout dates so that your preferred sailing does not coincide. Once you’re all ready to book your cruise, have your Placeholder Reservation information handy and call Disney Cruise Line directly. Friendly Cast Members are available Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM Eastern time, and Saturday and Sunday, 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM Eastern time.  

    With global itineraries and several ships to choose from, where will your next sailing take you and your family? From 3-night getaways to longer, trans-ocean voyages, there are so many options. As always, Sandi, if you have more trip-planning questions, please feel free to sail by planDisney again. We’re happy to assist you in planning an unforgettable Disney vacation!

    Hope to SEA ya again, 
    Kiki

Meet the Panelist: Kiki, California

Greetings! I have been fascinated by the magic of Disney since I was a little girl; now that I am a mother of two, I love watching my children experience Disney Parks through their own eyes. I am also surrounded by fellow Disney-loving nurse friends whom I enjoy quick adults-only Disneyland Resort escapes or Disney Cruise Line voyages with. Whether you are planning your once-in-a-lifetime family trip or a short adults-only getaway to the Happiest Place on Earth, I am here to help!
