Cabana questions - The DIS Discussion Forums

ajh88 · 12-08-2012, 01:08 AM

I have paid my cruise in full and I'm within my activity booking window. I booked a cabana online yesterday and it does show up in my reservations section. However, when I go to the page to add another activity, the cabana I chose still shows up as available.

So, is it technically available for someone else until I pay for it? Or is the site just slow in updating availability? Speaking of paying, I didn't think payment in full for the cabana was due until much closer to the sail date - can anyone confirm when I need to plan on paying it?

Thanks so much!

I don't remember how it showed up when I booked mine, but seeing your post, I remembered this one about the same issue: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3028242. I hope everyone enjoys their day in their cabanas. Our family and a family we met on this board sure did.

I had the same thing happen to me both times I booked cabanas and only you can see it as available. I thought the same thing and called Disney. No one else will see it as available, just you.

The charge for the cabana will show up on your onboard account, you don't pay for it in advance. If, for some reason, the ship does not make it into Castaway Cay, you will not be charged.
