Point chart for 2005 Cruise

[KMarie]

Hello all,
Does anyone have, or has anyone seen, a point chart for 2005 cruises yet? We're thinking about a 7-day Western Caribbean trip early in the year.
Thanks,
KMarie

The 2005 point chart won't be out for quite awhile. The best you can plan on is that the points will be at least the same and probably a few points (or more) additional.

Actually, some of the points went down between '03 and '04. Catagory 9 on the Magic went down very nicely.

So, keep your fingers crossed for '05. You'll have a blast on the cruise!

DCL only has rates as of April 2005. I am interested in an August cruise for my 40th BD. I wanted to compare the DCL price with DVC points and cash price.

Is the DVC cash price ( after one adult using points) comparable to the DCL advance prices?

Last year the point chart for 2004 came out at the end of February 2003. So I would expect to see the 2005 chart around that time next year.

I think it was late March last year instead of Feb and it was March the year before. One thing DVC will do is allow you to book with "points" before the chart is out. They do hold you to the new points chart even if it's much higher.

I called MS last year on Monday, March 3 (I posted it here on this Board) and was told that the charts would be out by March 6 for 2004. When I called on March 6, they had been released already but were not yet posted on the DVC web site (and were not posted for at least a month).

I suggested the end of February just to be aware that it was during that time period that the charts could be coming out. (Or at least they did last year).
