Disney Cruise Line’s already complex deposit, full payment due, and cancellation penalty dates have changed for some cruises and stateroom categories. Non-concierge staterooms are affected in two areas: 6-9 day cruises begin and/or end at US ports, and 1-9 night cruises (that originate/end in US ports) that include certain major holidays (New Years Day, July 4, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day). Concierge staterooms on 1-9 day bookings beginning and/or ending at US ports will see changes to the dates at which certain cancelation penalties kick in. These changes will affect new cruises booked on or after March 3, 2015, as well as for bookings for which the sail date is changed or has been reinstated. All other cruises and categories are unchanged. Altogether, we think you’ll need a chart to keep it all straight.
