Disney cruises are notoriously more expensive than competitor cruises.  Oftentimes, they’ll even be THOUSANDS of dollars pricier than other ships, depending on many different factors. This could be what port you sail out of, which ship you set sail on, and what time of year.

One way Disney is different than other cruise lines is that you’ll probably receive a greater amount of “all-inclusive” perks. When you go to book, you see that along with your stateroom price, it will include breakfast, lunch, dinner, soft drinks, character meet and greets, and some fabulous Disney entertainment. It also includes room service, which is very unique.

Of course,  these all-inclusive offerings don’t necessarily even out Disney’s much higher prices, but the added convenience of not having to worry about extra charges. It can make your trip a lot less stressful. And that definitely counts for something

A big part of why Disney is more expensive is because they KNOW they can get away with it. There’s a reason Disney is different. What other cruise line can you eat dinner with Elsa and Anna, sip on a drink inside a Haunted Mansion bar, and meet Mickey Mouse?

It’s the same reason why Disney can get away with charging more for its theme parks versus the ticket prices you’ll find at your local amusement park. You’re gonna pay more for the overall theming and the rare chance to meet the characters you know and love. Different cruise lines are going to cater to different types of people, and Disney Cruise Line is going to deliver on the quality and experience the Disney parks are known for

Could you still have a great vacation on another non-Disney ship? Of course. But, just like the Disney parks, you are likely to find something for everyone to love on a Disney Cruise ship. There really is such a thing as the “Disney difference”, a company policy of sorts that focuses on personal touch, attention to detail, and overall excellence to make everyone’s vacation experience unique and memorable.
