WDW and Disney Cruise Line Trip 2019/2020

[bjmort]

Right so due to life getting in the way, my next Disney trip (just got back from a week in Disneyland in April) will be in 2019 or 2020 as long as I can raise the funds in time. Might delay to 2021 for the 50th not sure. Dunno if I can wait that long.

The plan is to wait until Star Wars and Toy Story opens and then go.

I'm thinking of doing 2 weeks at WDW and a 4 night Carribean cruise. Just wanna get some advice on the below schedule and see what people think!

If you've never cruised DCL before, I'd suggest shortening your WDW portion and book a 7-day Fantasy cruise. 4 days is just too short to experience the luxury of a DCL cruise and the foodie experience onboard.

We're from Australia so shortening a part is never an option but we can always extend the cruise so I will take that on board **zing!!!**. In regards to food, how much food on board is not included in the cruise price? just the one signature restaurant?

There are actually 2: Palo for brunch and dinner, Remy for dinner and some special dining events.

Correct. You'll rotate through 3 Dining Rooms but can book upcharge meals at Palo and Remy.

ETA: The experts on the DCL forum can better assist with the cruise portion of your trip.
