@vertigo235, would you mind running and posting an update to your room availability spreadsheet? The sailing I am looking at is hitting the 90-day window, so I'd love to see what the room count looks like now that people have had to make their final payment decisions. TIA!

What is the best deal for a family of 4 on a 7 night? Just looking for opinions....can qualify for military pricing as well.

@vertigo235, would you mind running and posting an update to your room availability spreadsheet? The sailing I am looking at is hitting the 90-day window, so I'd love to see what the room count looks like now that people have had to make their final payment decisions. TIA!

I will try to do that sometime today.

 

[disneymagicgirl]

It seems DCL is reaching the ceiling of what people are willing to shell out for the same itineraries time and time again. Look at all the *GTs months in advance. Wow!

It seems DCL is reaching the ceiling of what people are willing to shell out for the same itineraries time and time again. Look at all the *GTs months in advance. Wow!

It is worth noting, though, that the PIF dates have changed over the last few years. 7-day, non-holiday, U.S. based itineraries used to PIF at 75 days from sail date, and it was extremely rare to see *GT discounts released before then. Now, those same itineraries have PIF at 90 days out and the holiday and longer cruises have PIF dates ever further out. I do think that is accounting for some of the general sense that discounts are being offered more in advance... but, I agree that the wide range of dates with discounts offered is increasing. Too bad even the discounted prices have gone up so much!

Our first *VGt was over Memorial Day 2012 on the fantasy. Family of 5. We ended up with connecting 4As for $5500.

Our most recent VGT booking is this coming dec on the fantasy. TBD what category we will be assigned. Cost was about $8500 for 6 of us.

Ouch. I’m just thankful I got in before chase stopped taking their points for Disney. I was lucky to have paid all but about $1800 of the $8500 in points.

Where an I find the google doc spreadsheet that is referred to in several posts?

Thanks for your help.

If you scroll back through prior posts, you can find the link. I think the last updated one was posted early September. Hoping to see another updated one soon, so you can follow this thread for updates.

What is the best deal for a family of 4 on a 7 night? Just looking for opinions....can qualify for military pricing as well.

Galveston has the best prices. The best prices are usually September through February. March through August prices are generally higher. The best deal right now seams to be the 11/30 cruise on the Wonder out of Galveston.

 

[Stevee1982]

Just saw FLR res rates as far out as April posted today. The rates aren't great but still nice to see something so far in advance.

Hi. I just found this thread and please let me know if it is not appropriate.

I am considering the following cruise:
12/09/2018 Disney Magic, 5-Night Very Merrytime Western Caribbean Cruise from Miami, I: $1818.38 - O: $1978.38
With 1 child (4 yo), it makes IGT - $2,369.17 and OGT - $2,529.17.

I am curious to find out whether it is a good deal or not. I am very new to DCL and I know DCL is in its own world in terms of everything, including pricing, so I would like to get expert's help on this.

We're Canadian, so flying and exchange rate will also add up, so we want to be conscious of our budget. and unfortunately, this sale is not included in CAN deal. I am also curious whether there are any possibility that it will be added at a later date.

Thank you.

BTW, I also found V: $2,468.38 for 2 adults.

I am curious to find out whether it is a good deal or not. I am very new to DCL and I know DCL is in its own world in terms of everything, including pricing, so I would like to get expert's help on this.

I think only you can actually decide whether it's a "good deal" for your budget. What one person is willing to pay, someone else may think is too expensive.

That said, the OP of this thread has sometimes noted what he calls "sleeper rates" which generally boils down to calculating out the rate per-person per-night. Assuming the figures you noted above include all taxes and fees, it sounds like the 3-person rates meeting the definition of a good value using this method.

SLEEPER RATES

I have also decided to provide my list of SLEEPER RATES. A sleeper rate is a rate that I find a good value. The rate I find good is listed below.

Inside - $175 per night, per person, including all fees.
Oceanview - $200 per night, per person, including all fees
Verandah - $225 per person, per night, including fees.

Enjoy your cruise!

It doesn't usually get better than a *GT rate, assuming you don't qualify for other discounts... but I agree 6+ months is a long time from sailing to be paid in full!

I have an OBB I could to sail on the Fantasy. I was actually looking at the wrong rate I was looking at the Florida resident rate. Not as great as I thought. It's not the paying in full it's the non refundable part. You normally have up to about 55 days out to cancel and all you lose is your deposit. I'm used to booking GT rates at about 2 months out, and I'm OK with it being non-refundable at that point. I'm leaning more to sailing out of San Diego this Spring. We live out West. There seems to lots of rooms left on those cruises. I'm not sure if I should hold out or not.

Thank you. I found out about 'sleeper rates' later and forgot to edit my posting.

If you scroll back through prior posts, you can find the link. I think the last updated one was posted early September. Hoping to see another updated one soon, so you can follow this thread for updates.

Thanks, with your help, I was able to find it.

Those sleeper rates may need to be updated. I'm not sure how old they are, but it's rare to see prices that low anymore.
