Although this has nothing to do with San Miguel de Allende, word has it that it is likely that Disney Cruise Line will announce the rest of 2016's schedule tomorrow (Tuesday). We heard last week that it was imminent and Tuesday is the customary day, so maybe!
They open booking for Platinums and Golds on the day following their announcement - like we could figure out our lives over night! (It's been done, though.) First day fares are almost always the most reasonable - before they start going up overnight!
Anyway, we've a cruise scheduled in April '16, so we're not planning another until later in 2017 - which will not be announced until whenever the next announcement is made.
Not sure we'll be on board a ship when the schedule we're hoping for [Fall of 2917] is announced to take advantage of those onboard booking specials, but we can always book the cruise whenever the announcement is made and then re-shop it the next time we are aboard. First day prices and OBB specials, yeah!
But it's still exciting....
Tuesday Morning Update
Well, it's around 6:30 AM our time (which differs than the usual Central time thanks to the US's time keeping) and there's yet to be a big announcement. Probably too early - though perhaps the past is not a good indicator of what to expect re: the balance of 2016?
Later yet -- So there was some news out today, but the actual itineraries will be released tomorrow and Thursday, it seems. Some news was available today if you knew which URL to type in the correct field; links in their website didn't include the news.
We're pretty well set up as it is: the EBTA and Baltic cruises this year (early summer) are booked; as well as a Western Caribbean cruise that includes Falmouth, Jamaica next spring; and, we hope to schedule an East Bound Panama Canal cruise with a park at either end in late summer of 2017 if it's offered. That will bring us to twenty Disney cruises and we may hold it there a while so that we can do some destination intensive traveling. It's hard to do both without a larger bank account than we have in retirement.
