Disney Cruise Line is preparing to ring in the new year by once again offering a 50% off initial deposit promotion for new bookings departing between June 19, 2023 and May 31, 2024 which do not require final payment at time of booking. Remaining balance will be due at time of final payment. This offer excludes Disney Wonder sailings between October 3, 2023 through March 1, 2024.

Similar to last year, this year’s promotion includes 3-night sailings.

Embark on a tropical cruise to the Caribbean or The Bahamas—or choose from one of our other fun-filled itineraries to Alaska, Europe, Mexico and beyond. With exciting voyages sailing from Florida, Louisiana, Texas, California and New York, there’s no better time to cast off with Disney Cruise Line on that family vacation you’ve been dreaming about.

The Bahamas
Chart a course from Miami, Port Canaveral or Fort Lauderdale on an unforgettable Bahamian cruise and discover a tropical world awash with sand and surf, including a visit to our private island, Disney Castaway Cay—home to sunbathing, swimming, biking trails, games, open-air barbecues and more.

Caribbean
Find paradise on an extended voyage to the sun-kissed Caribbean, where you can swim, sunbathe and soak up the fun at our private island Disney Castaway Cay. You can also shop for unique handmade goods, explore fascinating historic sites and savor the local cuisine of our scenic ports of call.

Alaska
Stroll through the quiet seaside steeped in history and natural beauty—where exciting wildlife like bears and moose roam free—on an Alaskan cruise from Vancouver. Navigate the Inside Passage to historic mining towns or catch a glimpse of majestic whales who call these glacial waters home.

Europe
Vibrant culture and timeless allure are yours to discover on an adventure amid the seaside villages and historic cosmopolitan cities of Northern Europe and the Mediterranean. Retreat to landmark destinations along the British Isles, set your sights on picturesque ports of call among the Norwegian Fjords or find fun in the sun in Spain, Italy and the French Riviera.

Mexican Riviera
Journey along the Baja Peninsula from San Diego, California to Mexico on a Mexican Riviera cruise. Sunbathe along white-sand beaches, snorkel through translucent waters teeming with vibrant sea life and savor the flavor of authentic Mexican cooking at charming open-air restaurants along the way.

Bermuda
Discover an island retreat with everything you’d expect in paradise—from the exquisite coastline and coral reefs to water sports, world-class golf and more. Combining British influence with its own distinct culture, Bermuda’s colorful past and lush landscape is beautiful for all to enjoy.

The promotion includes itineraries in the Bahamas, Bermuda, Caribbean, Europe, Mexican Riviera, and Alaska with departures from Florida, New York, Texas, Vancouver, and San Diego. Click here to see the full summary of the half off deposit promotion on DCL’s website.

Remaining balance due at time of final payment. See below for some additional fine print.

Most years, Disney Cruise Line announces this half-off deposit promo in December which ends shortly before the Summer itinerary release announcement. Below is a history of sorts to see the number of days the promo runs and the number of days following the end of the promotion and the summer itinerary release announcement. From time to time there have been extenuating factors that caused an announcement delay past the typical release period.
