I have been wrong a lot but I think either this Tuesday OR not until July 29th (I do think they might be waiting for the Aus discount to end)

7000 cruise treasure
2200 flights
500 transfers airports/ports etc
7000 Disney world
2000 spending / excursions / drinks onboard
400 Epcot fireworks party

Goodness that’s in pounds and all so it’s well over 20k in dollars. Wish I never worked it out now

This years trip to Disney is already paid. I am working on end of next years now. When I say the cruise is nearly paid that’s the cruise only, next I’ll need to move on to all the other stuff like Disney world etc. we normally go away for about three weeks so that’s why it’s so high.

Well I hope you have a good points or cash back card for all that.

Two options- A big announcement is coming (not likely with the current port agreements) or the more likely cause- sales are soft and DCL wants guests booking their current offerings instead of focusing on ones later on. Considering the recent promotions (some stackable with restricted GT rates) and the new reduced deposit, I think it is safe to say it is the latter.

Not really getting the logic. When I have availability for a trip in two years i dont bring it foward 8 months cos dcl hasnt bothered to release them in two years time. Thats not how leave allocation works. I look at other cruise lines or holidays ideas instead. Dcl loses my business.

And even if the logic did work (it doesnt) all dcl is doing is creating less demand in two years time by bringing demand foward now.

If your cruise is almost paid off why are you waiting so long? Why not go now. Next question is why is it 18k? Concierge? 18k would be at least 3 or 4 cruises for me.

My 12 night med for next summer for the 5 of us non-concierge is over 20K for just the room. Not hard to do on DCL,

Not hard for some of you. I live among the 99% that could never do that.

Just putting it out there that this is the week! Do I really believe it???? Nope but as I already said, eventually it will be right.

18k is just a verandah on a 12 day med cruise.

Why not now? People who work cant just take time off whenever they want. They do have to accumulate the available leave (as do their partners and any other adults coming with them) and coordinate school holidays if with children. People going to Europe also often book flights nearly 12 months in advance as with other hotels.

One of the questions asked for those of us who recently took advantage of the Wish discounts was Did you cancel another cruise to book this? What cruise line? And then they asked when it was scheduled for.

I know some people just really want to schedule their next trip in two years but I think DCL realizes that for many of their guests, they don't want to book any cruise- they want a Disney one. And those who were okay going with another line because DCL doesn't have their schedule out 2 years in advance, probably would have gone with another line anyway once prices came out from DCL. They want to grab those who just want to cruise DCL sooner, rather than later.

DCL is a niche cruise line IMO. And while I, like many on here, like to plan vacations well in advance I think booking a year+ out is enough for most DCL cruisers.
