Creator's Key Takeaways

We're going to give you a little behind thescenes look the early part of the year, January, February, March. We call it the wave.

By booking your cruise with Dreams Unlimited Travel, whether it's a Disney cruise or a non-D Disney cruise, you're going to get a ship or credit of up to $1,000 depending on the price of your cruise.

If kids are in school, then it's going to be lower priced. If September and January are the two lowest prices for cruising.

You can cancel your Disney cruise or shift the date. You can modify it at all before you're paying full date.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Start planning by gathering everyone to narrow down travel dates, destinations, and budget.

✓Consider booking in September or January for the lowest prices.

✓Use a travel agent to help compare options and find the right fit for your family.

✓Think about the total cost including flights, hotels, and excursions, not just the cruise fare.

✓Book early with a deposit to secure your spot and have flexibility to modify later.
