My friend is looking to book a group of at least 15 on a Disney cruise (3 or 4 nights out of Port Canaveral). Of course, she wants to keep the cost down as much as possible. Is there a less expensive time to go? Are there any advantages to booking early or late? Which combination of rooms would you suggest?

Any help is appreciated! :thumbsup:

At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.

Disney hardly discounts their cruises. 3rd and 4th guests in a room are significantly cheaper than the first two. Rooms are really tight (for me anyway) for even two adults and a child, never mind 4 adults.

There are seasons, right now s a cheaper time to go due to it being hurricane season. Holiday weeks command a premium just like anything else.

Room category choice is the easiest way to lower your cruise fare. Interior rooms lower in the ship are cheaper than balcony rooms higher up on the ship. After being given in a balcony room, chances are you won't want to go back to an interior room.

If you're serious about saving money, look at Royal Caribbean or another cruise line. You can cruise significantly cheaper by passing on DCL.

if you book right now for an October or November sailing, they are discounted. I saw the same pattern from last year. The catch is, it is non refundable and you have to pay in full on the same day of your booking.
