No public discounts? What about the 'Take a 4/7 day cruise now and return in the fall for a $99pp 3 day cruise' and the 'Kids Sail Free' discounts that were recently offered? Not really a discount, but deposits have also been cut to 50%.I was wondering that myself. However, I don't really see any general public discounts out there to 'boost' attendance, like they offered after 9/11.
I imagine that most of the current cruises were probably booked by many people upwards of a year or so ago. So these current sailings may be full, but I imagine this Summer and into next year they are lacking and need to get some rooms filled.

I'm with you in your thinking, but Disney had the foresight to move the Magic over seas where their money seems to be in better shape. Plus, they lowered the booking deposit which is the only reason we are going in Sept.
When I was on the Wonder in December, on deck 2 it was closed off between the front and mid elevators on one side and they were working on the rooms, so that must be 20 rooms not sold.
Same as our November cruise. They must have had those closed off for a while.
We just got off the Wonder yesterday and I do know the ship was full.
Disney's promotions seem to be working at WDW as well.But it seems to me they are only full because of the last minute deals for Florida travelers and all the other promotions they are doing.
Cat 12 on the Wonder for Dec 13-17 09 is $399pp. Just booked ours yesterday
I dont think so we are getting battered paying for our next cruise the rate is so bad. Our econamy is the same as yours.I'm with you in your thinking, but Disney had the foresight to move the Magic over seas where their money seems to be in better shape.

We were on the Wonder last month at Florida Resident discount rate and ship was full.
Yes, these may be "public" discounts, but they weren't deep enough to make us consider cruising with DCL. We will have to wait for another year, or a different cruise line.
