You may think you are smarter than DCL to take advantage of a horrible situation, but they will be smarter. Manyy travel companies and I assume DCL too, will have it in the small print that additional 125% FCC ( or other goodies) only valid for those who booked before XXX date. or they might not even offer you that deal.
My thing is this... None of us asked to be in the situation we now find ourselves; that includes Disney and Disney Cruise Line. Disney does so much for the preservation of wildlife (including marine) disadvantaged and critical care children; and then their is the rest of us who Disney loves to entertain and spoil with exceptional personal service. Why would anyone even think of playing them to get an advantage that they would not be normally be entitled to. Just saying...
... Maybe some, but thankfully not all!true. But if people think they could save 1k or something. Chances are they will do it
You could book a May cruise and get the credit If cancelled and disney are letting you change the booking upto 31st May if not anyway to use for upto 15 months. If people do it you can’t really lose
The way you lose is that if your cruise isn't cancelled, and you opt to take the 100% credit, it is non-refundable (just like a GT fare). So if your circumstances change and you no longer want to take the cruise within 15 months, you're out of luck.
True--I do think May cruises have pretty much no chance of sailing right now. But it's less clear to me about cruises later in the summer.True but if your sure u want to cruise it would work. And the chances are it will be cancelled. Royal Caribbean have already cancelled all there May cruises. Disney will any time now
I think that at some point DCL will start sailing again this year, but still have a very customer friendly cancellation policy in place. As there will be plenty of guests who are not comfortable to cruise yet, and/or are more vulnerable to the virus. To recover from this crisis, a company needs goodwill and trust.True--I do think May cruises have pretty much no chance of sailing right now.

It’s only 125% if disney cancelWhere do you see the 125 % FCC? I am sure it was there but currently I only see 100 % future credit.
