Have you ever wanted to go on a Disney Cruise?
Well, we’ve been on several, and we’ve shared our experiences. We took you along on the brand new Disney Wish with us as we experienced all it has to offer, its food, and more! We’ve taken a few MORE cruises since then, though, but here’s the thing: we will NEVER book our own Disney Cruise. Why? Well, we’ll tell you!
So you might be asking yourself…wait, if you don’t book the cruise, who does? We will always book a Disney Cruise through a trusted travel agent (and we can always recommend Small World Vacations). But why?
Travel Agents Will Book Your Cruise FOR FREE
First, there’s a common misunderstanding about using travel agents — you will not be charged for their services. In fact, they will book your cruise — and anything else you might need — at no extra cost to you.
All you have to pay for is the cruise and other services you’ve booked — travel agents make their money by getting a commission from the cruise line, not from you.
Travel Agents Know What They’re Doing
Booking a Disney Cruise is NOTHING like booking a Disney World or Disneyland vacation. It can even be more complicated, especially if you’ve never been on a cruise before. You have to think about things like transportation to and from the port the cruise leaves from, any before or after hotel stays you might need, and other things that would normally need to be booked separately by you. Travel agents can help you with ALL that!
Beyond that, travel agents are experts on Disney Cruises and help you pick the best cabin for you and your party, know the best locations for cabins on the ships, and can help you choose activities and excursions that fit your interests.
If You Need Special Arrangements, They Can Help You With That
If you have special dietary needs or mobility issues, or other needs, travel agents can make sure that the cruise ship is aware of that to accommodate you.
Sure, you could notify the cruise line of all that by yourself, but wouldn’t it be nice just to arrive on the ship and know it’s already all taken care of?
Travel Agents Can Save Your Money
Here’s a really big reason why you should book Disney Cruises through a travel agent. They can save you money because they already know what discounts are available and how to get you a better deal. Even better? If you book that cruise and a promotion or deal gets released AFTER that booking, they can often rebook your cruise for you so you end up getting some money BACK.
Without a travel agent, you might not even know about those deals, and if you do find out about them AFTER you’ve booked, you have to go through the hassle of canceling and rebooking your vacation. Who wants to do all that?
Travel Agents Could GIVE You Money
Say what? Yes, travel agents often offer bonuses for people who book cruises through them — basically, free ship credit that you can spend on things like special beverages, dining in signature restaurants, and more. You could get anywhere from $50 to $1,000 in onboard credit, depending on the cruise you book.
Yep, free money — who would turn THAT down?
