??Member Cruise Date

[nezy]

Have there been any rumblings re: a date for the next DVC member cruise?

How much planning time does MS give?
I am trying to plan, plan, plan. Also, in past experiences, has the Cash price for member cruises been discounted at a reasonable rate?

Thus far there has only been one DVC Member Cruise which was just this past February. It was announced about 6 months in advance of the cruise date. The cash prices for the cruise were discounted, similar to the way in which you can combine points, for regular Disney cruises, then book remaining passengers with a cash discount. It is not the best discount but not the worst either, IMHO.

The difference with the DVC Member Cruise was that members could book the staterooms entirely with cash, if they did not have nor desire to use their DVC points. A little more flexibility there..
I will be very interested in the next member cruise, if they decide to offer one. It was one of my most enjoyable cruises ever and a great way to mingle with other DVC folks like ourselves. You can bet if any such cruise is announced, you will read about it here as soon as possible!
