With exciting voyages sailing from Florida, Texas and California, there's no better time to set sail with Disney Cruise Line on that family vacation you've been dreaming of.”
Reservations for featured deals on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts must be submitted by February 16, so they should happen relatively soon, but there's plenty of time to plan. All of these trips include a reduced deposit to make booking easier.
Atlantic Coast
Costco Travel offers a four-night cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida, to the Bahamas for prices starting at $1,304. Additional government taxes, fees and port charges amount to $103.
