Can I just say thank god for y'all on this thread! I'm with ya'll on the outrageous prices of the new DCL itineraries. And people are booking them like crazy! I mean I LOVE DISNEY. Like I really do, but there is no way to justify those prices to me. And it kills me when people say "well if you add up all the extra things that other cruise lines charge, it really evens out.." I'm sorry am I missing something? What extras are you counting here? A soda package and some specialty dining? That really makes up for the thousands of dollars in price?
And if I hear "you couldn't pay me to cruise Carnival again" one more time...It's unfortunate that people need to say that kind of thing in the first place, but those are probably the people I don't want to cruise with anyway.
I know everyone vacations differently, but our British Isles cruise will probably be our 1st and last DCL. No way in heck could I pay those prices just to cruise the Caribbean. We'll save our money for WDW to get our Disney fix. We are VERY happy cruising Carnival. Especially with some new European itineraries and some amazing new ships!
