Discounts offered?

I haven't been on DCL since I was 17. Now at 32 I'm finally going back. I remember DCL offering discounts on future cruises if booked at that time. Do they still do this? Do you have to pay up front or just put a deposit down? Any help would be great. Thanks!

Yes. Onboard booking for future cruises:

Only have to put the deposit down. Deposit is 10% of cruisefare, not the typical 20%.

And you get Onboard credits based on the length of the cruise you book
I think it's like $100 for cruises of 4-6 nights, and $200 for cruises of 7 nights and longer.

There are blackout dates (cruises) that these are not applicable to, and the future cruise must be completed within 18 months of the onboard booking date.
