Disney Cruise Line Releases New Itineraries for
September – December 2023!!!
Disney Cruise has released the newest itineraries for the end of 2023!! 4 out of the 5 ships are listed. There are some shakeups in what ships are going where!! Dream will do some trips out of New York and then go to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale; Fl. Fantasy will return to 7-Night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises. The Wish is scheduled for 3 & 4-Night Bahamian taking over for the Dream out of Port Canaveral. Disney Magic will be doing some cruises out of Galveston, Tx and then coming to San Diego California for the end of 2023 before returning to Galveston.
The Disney Wonder is strangely NOT on the list! I do not
know if they left the Wonder off because they are not sure what they will do
with her yet or if maybe they are taking her into Drydock for some maintenance and
upgrades. Either way Wonder is off the schedule from September to December.
The change in the itineraries is exciting to see! This is
just the first of many changes to come over the next couple of years! In 2024
Disney Cruise Line will add a 6th ship and in 2025 a 7th
ship will join the fleet! DCL is also adding a new private port, Lighthouse
Point in the Bahamas. This will accommodate the extra ships and give an
additional exciting place to see!

You may ask why the rush to book?? Historically the prices for Disney Cruises goes up quickly after they are released to the public. Historically within 3-6 weeks after the cabins are released the price will start to go up and may go up as much as $300 or more for the same cabin. Placing a small REFUNDABLE deposit holds the cabin at the current price and protects it from going up in price. If for any reason you can not go the deposit can be refunded before the Pay in Full Date for the cruise.
I’ll be honest, not trying to scare people into booking just
stating facts. I’ve seen the price of a cabin go up $300 in a matter of minutes.
A client asked me the price on a particular cabin. I told them. They asked me
to price a different cabin without holding the first. I give them the price and
they decided to take the first one. The price on the first cabin went up $300
while I looked at the second cabin. So, booking early WILL save you money!!
I’ll also be honest and say in 2021 and 2022 the prices are
not going up as fast as they historically use too. Still, people are returning
to travel and therefore as things pick up the prices will rise faster. I feel
if you have the money to make the deposit it is best to book it and cancel
later if you must. Your final payment will not be due until 105-90 before the
cruise sail date So you will have into the middle of 2023 to pay it off. You
can make the deposit then Pay in Full when the date comes or make payments as
you can. Whatever works for YOU.
Want to book a Disney Cruise?? I’ll be happy to help!! I’ve
been on 9 DCL Cruises so far and have 2 more booked and will sail both by
January 2023. I’ll be happy to share my information and help in any way I can.
