When will Fall 2025 DCL itineraries open?

[jujubiee4]

Am I the only one gobsmacked by the price increases? Especially the PC and TA sailings? We're talking close to double compared to 4-5 years ago.

No I got excited about the 10 day New Zealand cruise. But I must not have had my coffee because when
I went to look again today I saw the price was 10k. Uh no way. It would be nice but not 10k nice. DCL cruises
have been selling well but I do see a softening in 2025/2026 or beyond at these prices.

I will be curious to see how many "special offer" sailings or GT rates they have next year. Our Treasure sailing
next year still has plenty of cabins available. I do think some other lines are "upping their game" as we
were sailing with several family members and some have canceled to try a different cruise line they feel
better value. We might be headed that way also.

The number for SIlver is 800-449-3380 it is the same number for all Castaway Club members…. Be sure to have your CC Club number handy when you call.

Thanks, I'm sure I would not have thought to have our CC numbers handy! I just read the placeholder paperwork and there is indeed a special 800 number to call for those.

Does anyone have any experience/tips to share about booking online on the day reservations open? I'm Silver Castaway club if that matters.

Just that they typically become available at some point before the phone lines open. I'd check as soon as you wake up just in case they're already loaded.

I have always booked with placeholders, and have never used that number, did not even know it was there! I'm also uncertain whether the CC number actually helps move you ahead of the cue or not...

Well, I'll post my experience Thursday!

Hi. I am Gold and I called this morning right at 8am Eastern time using the number on OBB confirmation. I was done by 8:10 am. Easy Peasy.

That PC is tempting.... just have to decide if the new locks is a dealbreaker or it would still be cool.

It’s still cool! We did miss out on the original locks, but have loved all 3 of our PC cruises and are booked for number four!

Does anyone else feel that the taxes for the PC Cruise are way more this time? $995 for two people $1991 for four. Just don’t remember them being that expensive.

We paid $756 for 2 adults on the recent 2023 EBPC, and that itinerary had an additional port.

Really glad we were able to book the 2026 WBPC, but the crazy increase in prices led us to downgrade from the 5B we had on the 2022 WBPC & 2023 EBPC to a 9B.

We were on the October WBPC cruise. We actually booked an inside room early yesterday morning. Then we noticed oceanview was only $300 more for all four of us. So we switched. This will be our fourth PC cruise. So looking forward to it and happy Disney is doing it again.

Only available ocean view rooms are on deck one. Only 11 showing. Otherwise Guaranteed.

I hope this shows Disney that Panama Canal cruises are something that's in demand from them! I would love to do one in a few years if it's offered and the timing is right.

26 deluxe inside showing available on deck 2

It is crazy because Disney does not have a regular schedule for these anymore. There is also a rumor circulating that this is part of the last hurrah for the Magic. Something I refuse to believe.

 

[AquaDame]

Those of you who have sailed the PC cruise already, should I give up all hope of a private table now, or was it kind of chill? I can't decide if less kids means a better or worse chance...

Same.. at least for now. They JUST did an involved drydock....

I heard about that rumor, and if true, money better appear out of thin air and let me go!

Can you do late dining? On the 2023 Panama we were told that that there were no private tables at early dining, but that everyone had a private table for late dining unless they requested otherwise. Don't know if that was accurate, but everyone we spoke to with early did have tablemates, and every table we could see in our late dining rotation was a private table.

Happy for you that you were able to book!
