Disney Cruise Line: 2024 Halloween on the High Seas and Very Merrytime Cruises Coming Soon

Disney Cruise Line Late 2024 Sailings Announced

Disney Cruise Line just announced that 2024 Halloween on the High Seas and Very Merrytime Cruises are coming soon.

We had a chance to experience Halloween on the High Seas on the Disney Wish last year and it was one of the best cruises we’ve been on. From Halloween parties to the decorations, it was a great way to enhance our Disney cruise. I highly recommend it.

Disney Wish: Halloween on the High Seas

Also announced are some rare itineraries to Hawaii and the South Pacific and more opportunities to visit Disney’s newest island Lighthouse Point.

When to book

Bookings open to the public on June 26, 2023. Disney Cruise Line Castaway Club and select other groups may take advantage of the following extended early booking windows:

  • Pearl Castaway Club Members: Monday, June 19, 2023

Special Disney Cruise Line Sailings to Hawaii and the South Pacific

In addition to the festive-themed sailings, Disney Cruise Line guests can experience bucket-list itineraries in late 2024.

The Disney Wonder will sail from Vancouver, Canada, to Honolulu, Hawaii, in late September with stops on the islands of Kauai, Maui and Hawaii before arriving in Oahu.

From Hawaii, the Disney Wonder will embark on a transpacific voyage to Sydney, Australia, that will take families through the South Pacific to visit once-in-a-lifetime destinations such as Fiji, American Samoa and New Caledonia.

Disney Cruise Line will then set sail on its second season of vacations from Australia and New Zealand, bringing the magic of Disney close to home for local families in the region. 


Thank you so much for being so patient with us. We had a great first cruise. Your advice was spot on especially with the dining package.

Save Now, Sail Later with Disney Cruise Line in Early 2024

Disney Cruise Line Returns to Picture-Perfect Tropical Destinations in Early 2024.

Disney Cruise Line is about to release early 2024 itineraries to the Caribbean, Mexico, Bahamas, and Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay.

Voyages will be from Florida (Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale), Galveston, and New Orleans, and San Diego.

Why book a 2024 cruise now?

I always say that the best way to save on a cruise is to book as far in advance as possible. As stateroom inventory goes down, fares go up and it happens quickly.

Experienced cruisers wait for these announcements and it’s why Disney Cruise Line loyalty club members have early booking perks, ahead of the general public.

Bookings open to the general public on Dec. 15, 2022.

Disney Cruise Line Castaway Club members may take advantage of the following extended early booking windows:

  • Platinum Castaway Club Members: Monday, Dec. 12, 2022

  • Gold Castaway Club Members: Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2022

  • Silver Castaway Club Members, Disney Vacation Club Members: Wednesday, Dec. 14, 2022

Early 2024 Disney Cruise Line Itineraries

The Disney Dream will begin early 2024 with an assortment of three- and four-night getaways to the Bahamas and five-night vacations to the western Caribbean.

All sailings from Florida will include a stop at Castaway Cay.

Caribbean Adventures from Texas and Louisiana

The Disney Magic will embark on Caribbean adventures ranging in length from four to six nights through the end of January.

Upon returning for another month-long stint between March and April, the ship will sail cruises ranging from four to seven nights to the western Caribbean during the popular spring break period.

New Orleans will welcome the Disney Magic back for a second consecutive year in February 2024 with four-, five- and seven-night cruises to the Caribbean.

Mexican Escapes from California

After returning from its inaugural season in Australia and New Zealand, the Disney Wonder will arrive in San Diego, California in March 2024 for three- to seven-night voyages to Mexico, including the Baja peninsula.
