Disney Magic DVC Member Cruise to Lighthouse Point - Todays the Day!

[The Sasquatch]

Today booking opens for DVC Members and just wanted to see if people could share what kind of pricing they are getting from Member Services for the different categories since we cant see it online.

Also, am I reading this correctly that there is a stipulation that at least 1 person in the stateroom has to be paid in full with just points???? I was hoping for an all cash option but doesnt look like it.

Its online. I have gotten through a few times just to be told to call back https://cdn2.parksmedia.wdprapps.di...-Point-Charter-Point-Chart-Final-04132023.pdf

Yes, one person on points. The rest can be cash from what I understand. This seems pretty pricey for not even having the “extras” typically on a member cruise.

Husband has gotten through three times now calling the 1800 number. It tells him all advisors are busy and to call back later and hangs up. I am trying the 407 number

update, I got through using the 407 number and got the same message, and hung up on

It's not the Wish, it's the Magic out of Lauderdale.

We got through by 10:30, on hold for just a short while and was able to book our 3rd choice cabin on the Lighthouse Point cruise. We were calling from 5 devices and the 800 number got us to the prompts and hold on 2 devices. The process is pretty quick once you get through. They can see available cabins on their screen so there is no waiting for them to check.

I've been on hold for 25 min already... trying to book the European cruise

Well, that's good to hear. I also feel like the Lighthouse point is more popular. But maybe that's just wishful thinking!

Sorry, meant the Magic! Fixed

Do you also need to pay in full? This isnt a deposit?

Any prices?

They will call back to collect the money and make the points transfer. You will have to pay in full.

Here is the points/cash chart. At least one passenger per cabin has to use points.

Did you get the category you wanted? We didn't get our first choice cabin, but were able to get the category and side of the ship we wanted.

No, same category but not cabin I wanted.

Ive also priced up the week after as a regular Disney cruise with the same itinerary.

For 2 of us thats $5935 for cat 4E. Member cruise is $6620.

Not sure why its $685 more......

Anyone know why it takes so long for a cruise booked with DVC to show in your DCL reservation list? I booked the June '24 member cruise on April 23 (so, like six weeks ago).
