Interline rates and Castaway Club

[padawans]

Another interliner here ... I wasn't aware we could book directly thru Disney . If you wouldn't mind sharing the info with me, I would appreciate it. That being said, went last week on the Dream thanks to my wonderful discount. !

Just call DCL and ask if there is an interline rate for the cruise you want. You don't have to go through a TA.

Just make sure you check the cruise fare on one of the Interline travel sites before you call Disney, I was quoted more $$$ by Disney twice. I know it doesn't make sense, but, the quote fron Disney was a couple of $100 more.

I've sailed Disney Wonder twice on interline rates - the first time was a HUGE deal - it would have been more expensive to stay home! I wish they would come out with another deal like that but I doubt it

When we sailed the 2nd time me & my mom (who was with me on the first trip) both received the Silver Castaway Club gifts. Didn't take advantage of pre-trip planning since we booked close-in.

And the first time was under my maiden name, but they were able to look it up and give me credit.

Just like booking Disney hotel rooms, it's a limit of 2 rooms (or in this case, cabins). And you have to fax your airline id within 24 hours or they could change the price to the original fare. You're also supposed to show your id at time of check in, but I've never been asked for it (always carry it anyway when I travel).

Take advantage of it! It's a huge $$$$ saver!!! (especially when it's so hard to get on flights theses days - it's nice to have a few perks)

Disney has a 1-800 number dedicated to interline booking. If you're on their website and opt to "chat" online with an agent, they can provide it for you.

Also remember that you will have to book the cruise under the airline employee's name as the main passenger, and fax/email a copy of your current active airline ID within 48 hours.

I know as a retired airline employee that I am entitled to the interlines rates as well. The thing is I no longer have an airline employee badge. Does anyone have any info on how this would work for me? Thanks to anyone who can help.

Your best bet would be to call DCL to see what type of 'proof' you would need to submit to them to get the discounted rate.
