Current *GT/MTO/FLR Discounts!

[Flossbolna]

I think they are going to continue to push the TA and CM rates for these cruises before any *GT rates come out. This is just my opinion especially with another 11 night announced for 2018.

I think you are right. They have been very reluctant in offering *GT on those very special itineraries in recent years. It might still happen. But I think both cruises are passed PIF now (should be 120 days for longer cruises), it seems like they are not hurrying to offer restricted rates.

The pricing of the 2018 11 night cruise is very similar to the 2017 11 night. I can't see them wanting to point out that the 2018 cruise might go cheaper.

I have also been waiting the 5 night sailings of the Dream for this summer. The date I am watching had a lot of availability but is suddenly getting booked up a little more so I am wondering if some behind the scenes discount was offered.

 

[SunnyDhappy]

Is it passed the PIF date yet I would not expect anything until then?

Yes the pay in full date was 3-4 weeks ago. It is 3 months out from sailing and they have 312 staterooms opening for the June 17th 11 night sailing.

Yeah but will Disney let the ship sail with some many staterooms open. 312 for 11 night and something 260 for the 10 night.

I think it going to be harder for Disney to fill 11 night/10 nights last minute due to cruise cost and people not being able to take that much time off last minute. Unlike 3-5 night cruises and 7 nights many people can finaggle getting time off last minute.

I agree but I think they are going to offer more TA/CM and FLR rates first. These cruises are still a long time off. I hope it does go *GT so people can get some great rates.

 

[Trera]

They have already dropped the price $3,000 I think for the FLR rate.

Looks like the 11 night just went to IGT, OGT, and VGT.

 

[NoodlesMom]

It looks looks like the June 17 11 day Southern has gone *GT.

 

[NoodlesMom]

Haha. We were posting at the same time.

 

[SunnyDhappy]

Haha. We were posting at the same time.

haha I was hoping for slightly better GT rates though. I wonder if the 10 night will go GT next week as they have about 260 staterooms.

 

[houseofduck]

Do the prices include taxes and port fees?

Prices are for two people with all taxes and port fees included.

Thank you for such great information! We are thinking about the 6/4 cruise.. but can you help me put into perspective the current availability? Are the available staterooms a large number? A small number? It seems like a lot of staterooms, but I do not have a reference to be sure... thanks! Do you think these rates will be available up until sailing?

On some cruises, you will see only a few staterooms (i.e., less than 10) in each category available and many categories either unavailable or in GTY. Those cruises, most likely, won't get a discount. On cruises with near 100 staterooms available, like the 6/4 Magic cruise, I would expect to see discounts. The 6/4 discounts have been out for a few weeks. I think they will continue to be available.

 

[houseofduck]

Any thoughts on whether the double-dips on the Dream this summer will go *GT? IIRC, there were some *GT rates on the double-dips in prior summers and we'd love to jump on one this year!

There was a discount on one of the 5 night double dips in 2015.

Wow, was so excited to see the 11 day come down, but for $10,000 for a family of four I'll pass. To rich for my blood.

Yeah us too on the price! I was hoping for it to dip under 10K especially since you don't get to pick your room.

Last time, we did a VGT we got a very sweet price but a very crappy room. It was a connecting room where there were 3 loud children screaming very early in the room every day. It was a painful experience waking at 6am every day to the bouncing off walls and screaming. I will never stay in a connecting room again and fear that with a OGT/VGT. It would have been awesome room if it was not connecting. You can hear very well through those doors.

 

[bearette]

That would be awful to pay that much money and end up with the neighbors like that. Disney seems to attract that, before my kids we had neighbors at our Orlando hotel, off property, and they would start screaming at 6am for the three days our hotel stay overlapped. The second day I finally complained to them and then the third day called security after I complained to them because it went on for 2 hours! Who takes two hours to get ready in the morning? We made it to the park early those days since there was no sleeping in. I worry more about neighbors now then the room.

I've had several guarantee rooms from other lines and even the worst location was good for something. I did a Disney guarantee and got what I thought was a bad room near the kids club, but it was actually a nice central location, but I never would have picked it.

I'm not sure that being in a VGT has anything to do with noisy neighbors.
