Quoted pricing includes onboard activities such as dining, room service, kids’ club use (ages 3 - 17), movies, fireworks at sea, Disney Character encounters, live shows and use of onboard pools and waterslides.

A big perk for many guests are the unlimited soft drinks including soda, tea, juice and lemonade. You can also get as many ice cream cones as you want!

Depending on the size of your family, you may find that booking adjoining rooms is a better deal than booking a larger stateroom. A Get Away Today cruise expert can walk you through your options to ensure you get the best price.

Additionally, if a better fare pops up after you book Get Away Today will honor the lower price and credit you.
