Fall 2026 to Spring 2027 Disney Itineraries are OUT!! Why Book ASAP?

Fall 2026 to Spring 2027 Disney Itineraries are OUT!! Why Book ASAP?


Most DCL fans have heard that the new itineraries are out, and they will soon be available to book. Why is it important to book As Soon As Possible? These are for dates late September 2026 to May 2027. It includes some very special Halloween on the High Seas and Merrytime Cruises!

 

September 2nd, 2025, is when the new itineraries are available for General Public booking. Did you know there is Early Booking opportunities??? If you have sailed DCL before, are a Golden Oaks, Club 33, DVC or an Adventures by Disney Insider you have early booking possibilities! It is HIGHLY recommended you take advantage of the first possible date to book!

Early Booking Dates:

  • Monday, August 25, 2025: Castaway Club Pearl Members (Peral = DCL Guests who have sailed 26+ times)
  • Tuesday, August 26, 2025: Castaway Club Platinum Members, Golden Oak and Walt Disney World Club 33 Members (Platinum = DCL Guests who have sailed 11-25  times)
  • Wednesday, August 27, 2025: Castaway Club Gold Members (Gold = DCL Guests who have sailed 6-10times)
  • Thursday, August 28, 2025: Castaway Club Silver Members, Disney Vacation Club Members and Adventures by Disney Adventure Insiders (Silver = DCL Guests who have sailed 1-5  times)
  • Monday, September 2nd, 2025: General Public Booking Opens (1st time cruisers and all others)

 Where will each ship be:


Disney Cruise Ships fill up quickly. This is especially true for special and limited cruises like the longer relocation cruises, Transatlantic or Panama Canal are examples. Often these special cruises are filled by Pearl and Platinum Castaway Club Members. While this is true ALL cruises tend to fill. As the ships fill up the price goes up. If you want to secure the lowest possible fare it is recommended to book as close to the release date as possible.

Overview of Itineraries:



Many other Cruise Lines have discounted cabins close to the sail date. Disney usually does not. Let me give you an example. Someone wished to book a DCL cabin, it was about 8 months out from the cruise. The price had already gone up quite a bit before I even looked. They requested pricing for a particular cabin they knew was available and they love. I quoted them the price but did not place a hold. (A rooky mistake I no longer make.) They asked me to check another cabin for them. I got that price and they said they wanted the first cabin. The entire process took about 15 minutes maximum. The price of the first cabin had gone up $300 in that short amount of time! Long term, as in waiting until 6 or less months out, the price may have gone up as much as $1,000 or more!

 

All you need is a 10% deposit to hold the cabin at the lower fare. If you need to cancel you can do so up to the Pay In Full Date for the cruise and get a full refund. Some restrictions do apply for Concierge and other special category reservations. Make sure you understand the cancelation policy for your reservation.

 

The next release of DCL itineraries should be in October 2025. This would be in line with the historical release times. But I do not expect it to come out until later this year. Maybe as late as December 2025. This should be for the late May 2027 to September 2027 Itineraries.
