How far ahead do you need to book?

[dkschneider]

We are looking at our first DCL vacation for the middle of March 2017, how soon do we need to book before we would worry about it being sold out?

Just to let u no normally from the date the cruise comes out until the cruise the prices normally just go up

So the closer to sail date u book it the higher the cost normally that is

March 2017 has been out since October 2015. Prices go up as the cruise sells. March is spring break time but Easter 2017 is April 16th so that might help with the March cruises. For the best price, I would book sooner than later.

I booked last October for my April 2017 cruise. I booked day 1 and the price went up the next day.

Book as soon as you can!!! It is amazing how much they go up from opening day. Right now March 28th, 2016 4 night on the Dream $4749. March 27th, 2017 4 night on the Dream $2706. WOW!

Also to consider is which dining seating you want. Early seating books early, sometimes within days. If you want early, about 6 PM, book early.

I would book now. Lots of kids have spring breaks in march. the price is only going to go up more.

Another vote for NOW.

Just curious, why haven't you booked yet, if you know the cruise you want to take?

I'd book sooner rather than later. The cruise category I have booked for March 2017 has had three price increases from when I made my reservation back in November 2015.

Book now! I booked my October 2016 cruise back in May 2015, and I am so glad we did, because the room category I booked is now $400 more.
