I having been trying to get my DH to take our family (ds 10 and dd 6) on a Disney Cruise for some time. The answer is always the same, NO. Knowing that he usually give in to my "whims" I have been really pushing a cruise for my 40th birthday. I think I'm making headway because last night he showed me a brochure and asked "is this a good deal?"
My problem is I don't know anything about a cruise. I wouldn't know a good deal if it slapped me in the face. (Yes, I could understand FREE, but other than that I'm totally lost.)
So, please help me. Where do I start? I've read several web pages about the ships and I know that there are different categories with different costs. Would someone compare categories to hotel rooms at WDW. Is a Cat. 11 comparable to the All Stars, etc. We are Florida Residents do they offer any special discounts?
If I read correctly the cost of the cruise includes your meals. What are the hidden costs? This would help to to budget the trip and would give me a clearer picture of what to expect.
I appreciate any and all help that you can give me. Also, I'm sure there are many questions that I didn't ask that I should have asked, so feel free to share any tips you may have.
