About a Disney Cruise Package

What is So Great About a Disney Cruise Package?

In nine out of ten serious discussions, "What's so great about a Disney cruise package?" counts as a rhetorical question. It is Disney. Therefore everything is done perfectly and precisely right down to the very last detail, and the entire cast and crew emphasize service, making you feel as if you are visiting royalty. The staff seems to know what you want even before you realize you want it.

Moreover, it is a Disney cruise. Therefore, it offers non-stop fun-filled activities for the entire family; and-surprise of surprises!-mom and dad can send the kids off to camps and classes, enjoying that priceless and exceedingly rare phenomenon experts call "a conversation." Even the teen-agers have all kinds of fun stuff to keep them amused.

Most of all, it's a Disney cruise package. Translation: you travel in the lap of luxury, keeping everyone blissfully busy and frighteningly happy, and you needed no economic stimulus or government bail-out to make it happen. In fact, your Disney cruise package costs less than last year's tragically failed "stay-cation."

Boats designed and built for family fun

Disney commissioned the world's finest naval architects and shipbuilders to construct Disney Magic and Disney Wonder, demanding they build-in everything for family fun, and insisting they do it with Disney's trademark attention to craftsmanship and precision in every detail. Moreover, Disney demanded cruise ships that recreate "the golden age of ocean travel," the time in America's history when a voyage meant more than a big buffet table, a smoke-filled casino, and another chaise lounge by the pool.

The result: two exceptionally safe and speedy, well-appointed and amazingly comfortable cruise ships exquisitely decorated and rendered family-friendly in every way. The ships soar more than ten stories tall, and they include everything from black-tie formal dining to hot dog stands, and entertainment from upscale night clubs to kids' karaoke night. Disney has loaded Disney Wonder and Disney Magic stem to stern with everything every family member could need, want, or wish for a perfect ocean voyage.

Great value with a Disney cruise package.

You can find a Disney cruise package to fit any travel budget. Shopping carefully and scheduling your Caribbean travel during late fall or early spring, you can find a package for under $100 per night. Many off-season three-, four-, and five-night tropical trips include free travel for children under seventeen when they travel with full-fare adults; you also can find longer trips to Europe and Alaska for as much as 75% off regular fares. If you book your travel with your Disney Rewards ® Visa ® Card, you receive a handsome discount and lots of on-board credits. If you book eight rooms or more, you qualify for a group discount. And if you can travel "at the last minute," booking your Disney cruise package just a month before your ship sails, you often can find bargains so low you will feel guilty if you stay home.
