Current *GT/MTO/FLR Discounts!

[Ofinn]

Those 5-night Wonder double dips are the ones I'm watching. DH wants to do both b2b but the prices are just outside where I'd like to be. If/when *GTs come out for late Sept/early Oct Dream I could see us booking 3 of those b2b2b. Then again, if I had my druthers we'd not be sailing Disney at all. I'm ready to branch out and do new stuff. The hubby notsomuch. LOL!

I don't think I could stick with Disney if it meant doing the same cruises over and over. I'm super excited to be sailing out of San Juan and Vancouver over the next year. At least its not Port Canaveral. My DH is like yours it takes a little prodding to get him to try new things. I'm a little more adventuresome. I would love to take cruises all over the world. I really don't care if it's with Disney or not.

Sorry to here that you would want to branch out. What are you wanting to branching out from? I am like your hubby I guess. We cruise because it's Disney, the destination is a plus. Right now there are a lot of rooms on both dates. Maybe you might get lucky with the *GT rate. Watch the prices to make sure they don't get too high in case a discount doesn't come out.

I've done what feels to me like so many Disney cruises now. Been to the Caribbean and Bahamian ports plenty. Cruising with friends on the Dream on the 9/21 4-night. Really, I get more out of the company than the destination. Same with my husband. I could go anywhere or nowhere and be happy. Seems crazy to spend all that money. We sailed Allure last November and had a good time. It's not Disney but the adventure and company was there. We live maybe 30 minutes from Galveston and Royal sails a ship the size of the Dream class ships from here. I'd be fine sailing with them again. I thought they had pros & cons same as Mickey's ships. Big perk: I'd get to see some different Western ports. That's why I'd do it.

Now, if money were no object is be rafting thru the Grand Canyon for a week!

Not sure if you know that this week dvc members received an offer of 30% off some 7 night cruises on the magic starting late oct to early December and excluded thanksgiving week. I have one on hold while I think about it. The nice part was that these cruises were fairly reasonable already. I think they are $119 pp/pn for OV and $143 pp/pn for VV. They quoted me $2162 for cat 5B for the 2 of us. It's a savings of $1110. It's the eastern Caribbean I'm sure this sale will impact availability for future discounts. Plus we can book up to 3 cabins at the discounted price.

That is great to know. So, if anyone is looking at the Magic during that period you might want to book. I am sure those are in my SLEEPER RATES. Normally they would offer some discounts in time frame. We will have to see how DVC'ers are at booking the dates.

thanks again!

Impatiently waiting for Florida Resident Rates on the October sailings...sure hope to see some soon

 

[Disneyaddictz]

Does anyone know if I book a cruise and the military or Florida fare comes out can I apply the discount or must I wait? I understand some deals are only for new bookings but wasn't sure!

 

[PrincessShmoo]

Does anyone know if I book a cruise and the military or Florida fare comes out can I apply the discount or must I wait? I understand some deals are only for new bookings but wasn't sure!

I know I've read that Florida rates have been applied to already existing reservations, but I'm not sure about military ones.

 

[Justacruiser]

I know I've read that Florida rates have been applied to already existing reservations, but I'm not sure about military ones.

It is a pain but you CAN do both the Florida and the MTO unless it was a *GT booking. if it's a *GT you are pretty much out of luck. It will have to be approved by some above the normal customer service person on the phone. Also be careful because they may want to hit you with cancellation charges. Just talked to a friend that they tried to do that to. Be sure and get the persons name you talk to and get a email confermation. I usually make sure all of my transactions are updated on the DCL website before I hang up.

 

[ChipandDaleFan16]

I hope Disney throws us a bone today and releases the
August GT rates today. The suspense is killing me!

I have NEVER been able to apply a military rate to an existing cruise. I spoke with numerous CMs last year and at least one supervisor and no one would modify my cruise to do so. All they would let me do is cancel and rebook and we were at the 75% cancellation point and did not do that. The policy is that they will modify FL rates but not military rates any more; if you've had success doing it, then you had a very kind supervisor.

probably so and/or a little pixie dust.

Unless it is a special cruise like Hawaii I won't book that far ahead any unless I am sure there won't be a MTO. Fortunately I have a little bit of liberty with time off so I can cruise for price instead of specific time period.

Sorry for any misinformaiton.

This has been my experience as well and CM have confirmed it. I understand exactly as you stated, you can apply FLR with no issues however.

Thanks for the updates even though there is not much to update. I'm surprised not GT rates for September yet. The prices are still good though, they really haven't gone up much since opening day. Maybe they're not planning on discounting them??

 

[ChipandDaleFan16]

Thanks for the update Justacruiser! You rock!

Sometimes I think with all the time I have been spending waiting for an August VGT on the Fantasy that I just should have booked ahead of time.

 

[Woodmnky]

They are holding out for a long time on the September dates. Thank you for the update, hopefully within the next couple of days you will have a lot of dates to update all at once.

They sure are! Amazingly, I'm okay to wait. Highly unusual for mega-impatient me! Our flights to California are still in place and our DL APs are still good if nothing ever comes. We'd rather cruise, tho. Come on, Mickey! Bring the *GTs to Momma!!!
