Disney Cruise Line quietly removed 10 early-December sailings from their online booking page. This could indicate a few things, but rather than speculate, I’ll just point out little over a month ago, Disney did the same with all November sailings. This was a result CLIA’s extension of the voluntarily and temporarily suspension of cruise ship operations from U.S. ports until October 31, 2020. While October and some November sailings were officially cancelled, the balance of the November sailings pulled from online booking remain with guest still able to book port adventures.
The following December sailings are no longer listed:

Now, with today’s disappearance of early December sailings for the fleet we are left to speculate. It is important to keep in mind, the November sailings as well as those listed above for early-December are NOT officially cancelled. This could just be Disney’s way to limit further bookings in order to limit capacity for onboard physical distancing and required quarantine stateroom inventory if the ships are able to resume sailing under restrictive guidelines. Alternatively, they could simply be preventing any further bookings until they have a better idea what the future holds.
I stress, please note, at this time, this is information is based on an observation and should not be considered fact until any official announcement is made by Disney Cruise Line. Please do not call Disney based on this posting, as nothing has officially changed.
We will continue to monitor this situation and provide updates when applicable.
I initially thought my May cruise would be well into the calendar after operations restart ; well I guess I was wrong and I am now contemplating a cancellation considering the uncertainty of the ship sailing and the imposed conditions.
You might as well keep it until there is a cancellation penalty, and try to get the 125% future cruise credit.
We were booked on the Dec. 7 Very Merrytime Cruise on the Disney Magic. It has been removed from our active reservations list on the DCL app and on the DCL website, as of this morning.
I have a cruise on the Fantasy on Nov 9, 2020 and it has disappeared from from my itinerary of already booked cruises. I called DCL this morning and they said this cruise is “under review” and I should know sometime today exactly what that means. I suspect they are cancelling at least some of the early November 2020 cruises.
Its official. DCL posted on the website cruises are cancelled at least through 12/6/2020.
My cruise was just cancelled 12/11 by Disney.
