Paying for cruise
Hey Gang,
Since i dont have anything better to do as I sit here in Afghanistan (civilian contractor) I was wondering if i could set up a sort of savings account with Disney? Not have a Cruise booked, but start putting money into a vacation account of sorts. That way when we are ready to book it, we already have a good chunk of it there.
Is it possible?

Never heard of this. Why not just set up a vacation club account with your bank?

Haven't heard of this either but when we booked our cruise, we just put the deposit down and made online payments when we had extra money. That might work the same way. Stay safe!!!!!!

I agree....start a vacation club with your bank. You will earn interest too.
That way you can use the money for any trip, if you change your mind about the cruise.
Disney doesn't hold money for you...and why would you want them to?
Be safe there!

Thanks for the help guys.
I thought that it migh tbe a good idea if i could do it that way. If i just did a bank account then i might take the money out for something shiny but if it was in a Disney account I wouldnt.
Oh well. It is just as well

Disney now has a saving account?
Disney now has a savings account that you are able to set up and make payments to on a weekly or monthly basis, it's called Disney Savings Account". There are no fees, no interest and you can take your money out whenever you would like.

I have heard of some people doing something similar by buying Disney Gift Cards. They can be used for anything Disney such as reservations, tickets, dining, etc. I noticed some of them at Sams Club the other day in various denominations from $25 to $100. The only problem with that approach is of course loss or theft. If something happens to the cards, the money is gone.

Disney
The web site I found the information on is "Passporter.Com
The site statement reads as follows:
Want to go on a Disney vacation but lacking the funds? Check out our blog post about how to Save Money for a Disney Vacation: Try the New Disney Vacation Account, which reviews the brand new Disney Vacation Account being offered by Disney!
