Wow, your child cost the same as an adult? I thought kids were always cheaper, no?

Not if there are only 2 in a cabin.

I don't think so if there are only 2 in a room. But he will be 17 at sailing

Just like a single cruiser pays for 2 adults in a stateroom, if there is only one adult in a stateroom, the first child is charged the adult rate.

Usually the third passenger is cheaper, whether child or adult.

[disneyholic family]

looking forward to hearing from our DU TA tomorrow....she's tasked with reserving 3 staterooms for us...
if the prices are the same as today, i kind of know what to expect...

the only question - are toddlers cheaper than teens?....the prices i've seen for the cruise we're trying for include teenage kids...
we have three young kids...ages 5, 3 and 1 (14 months to be specific)...
i wonder how they're priced...

The only reason I don't have a TA, is because I am the planner in the family and I enjoy it so much. I prefer to know all my options and make the choice (read: control) LOL. For example, if my TA gets through to DCL and there are only certain rooms or room types available that weren't in my original request to the TA, then what? They pick for me? I like to do the research, read stateroom reports, etc. and ensure I am getting the best options for me. I know there are plenty of benefits though to have a TA, like certain perks, discounts and most recently the 2-hour hold time on opening day!

Lol,you just described me. I’m in the process of planning 4 WDW trips (dvc member) and have 3 cruises booked for the next 12 months. Believe me, I thought like you, but found out that I never lost control. I still make all my own decisions and excursions. My TA has changed my cabins a few times too when I change my mind. It’s all good either way. I get the extra onboard credits, she does all the phone calls and puts in my requests and I’m helping a small business.

So much my story! My TA has handled every change I’ve thrown at her and never sounded cross about doing it.

 

[Sergel02]

This thread is making me think of using a TA. My family gets discounts through Perx and iD90 so o don't know if that would work.

As long as the kids are passengers 3, 4, 5, then yes younger kids are cheaper than teens, but not by much. Our 2016 Alaskan cruise, we had 2A, 2C (16, 12)...my 12 yr old was $25 cheaper than my 16 yr old.

Thanks. These prices are confirming that May looks like the best choice for us. The last two weeks of second grade aren't that important anyway (she says trying to convince herself that pulling a kid out of school isn't a terrible idea).

[happilyeverafter65]

Finally made it through! My first call dropped after an hour and a half on hold- thought I would just cry! Tried again at 9:30CT on hold for an hour but finally booked!

G Magic 7/21/19 4A 2A $19140 [9570 | 9570] + $324.92 taxes, fees, port + $798.00 ins Total= $20262.92 (deposit of $3828)

The cast member said that the 11 night Norway/Iceland and the 10 night Med are the most reserved so far!

another weird thing i noticed.... i can go in and change the room I picked- it lets me see the prices for other categories (still with 2 adults)... The 1 bedroom concierge was 38k! Guess we can see it live later this week- but I didn't think it would have showed me today. I can hope this wasn't a really number!!
