I know it’s doubtful.....but I have a dummy booking that expires December 30, 2020. Any chance Disney might extend the deadline a few months?
General consensus is "no". A couple of other people have also asked this recently:I know it’s doubtful.....but I have a dummy booking that expires December 30, 2020. Any chance Disney might extend the deadline a few months?
For those reservations booked with an onboard booking, DCL is allowing the onboard booking perks to transfer to the new cruise, regardless of original expiration date of the onboard booking.It seems that Disney is the least flexible of all the lines when it comes to the rebooking rules. I would think they would extend the deadlines, but they are not. I assume it's mostly because a lot of people are just shifting their dates and I've read that total bookings are actually up. They don't see a business reason to do this.
I've seen other lines be much more flexible with their policies. For example, we had an on-board booking with Royal fro September 2020. We called and used their "lift and shift" program and moved it to September 2021. Same itinerary and ship. They kept everything intact, including onboard booking credits and discounts. Held the price the same too, even though the new cruise was more expensive. Disney could take a lesson here.

For a placeholder onboard booking (no cruise selected) the expiration is 2 years from booking date.
The latter is what DCL is not extending.
