Let’s face it, the Disney Cruise Line is down right expensive. But, your kids really want to go, so you are out looking for discounts. The problem is, Disney rarely released discounts for the Disney Cruise, they really don’t need to. All of those other cruise lines offer last minute deals for cruises year round, but guess what, Disney never has, and never will. They don’t want to dilute the product, it is expensive, and is almost always full, so why offer discounts? When a cruise is not full, remember that Disney has over 50,000 Cast Members within an hour drive of Port Canaveral, so they will offer screaming deals to Cast Members, as a sort of perk.
Disney does offer some small discounts from time to time, for Disney VISA cardholders, Florida Residents, etc. You can find those discounts below. We also have some great articles here on how to save money on your Disney Cruise, discounts available or not:
