Disney Cruise Line is further extending their temporary final payment deadline an additional month. For sailings through June 30, 2021, Disney Cruise Line is temporarily extending final payment until 60 days prior to sailing for Guests booked in unrestricted stateroom categories. This means guests who have not yet reached their final payment due date can wait until up to 60 days prior to sailing to pay for their cruise vacation. You will still be required to pay in full to book cruise activities within your Castaway Club booking window. Additionally, Disney Cruise Line extended their temporarily relaxing of cruise cancellation fee schedule for sailings through June 30, 2021.
The final payment deadline calculations are also updated for sailings through June 30th on our website under the important date section of the cruise summary.
Details on the temporary cruise cancellation fee schedule can be found below in the copy of the email being distributed to guests booked on select sailings.
