Disney fans and cruise enthusiasts alike may be disappointed to hear that prices for several dining experiences on Disney Cruise Line have increased. The price hikes, which were quietly introduced, affect several key dining locations but are not immediately visible on the company’s main website.
Since its inception in 1996, the Disney Cruise Line has become a beloved vacation option for families and Disney fans around the globe. The line currently operates five ships with two more set to hit the water in 2024 and 2025. The ships offer a wide range of exclusive dining, shows, characters, and attractions that immerse guests in the world of Disney.
However, with this latest price increase, guests may find that the cost of a Disney Cruise has become even more expensive. While food is included in a Disney Cruise, several experiences require an additional fee, including the adult restaurants Palo, Palo Steakhouse, Remy, and Enchanté. As of July 11, the cost of these experiences has increased.
Although the Disney Cruise Line’s website does not show exact pricing on each individual restaurant’s page, it does mention that “additional fees apply.” Both dinner and brunch at Palo and Palo Steakhouse have increased by $5 to $50 per adult, while Remy and Enchanté have increased the base price of their dinner options by $10 to $135 per adult.
Guests who had already made dining reservations before the price increase will be charged the price at the time of their booking. However, any new reservations will be charged according to the new pricing.
This latest price increase follows a trend of price hikes across Disney Parks and Resorts. Single-day tickets for Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort have reached an all-time high of up to $189 per guest. These price increases have not been received well by park-goers, who have criticized the changes as “ridiculous.”
With the latest price hike on the Disney Cruise Line, fans may be left wondering if the cost of a Disney vacation is becoming too expensive. While many guests are willing to pay a premium for the Disney experience, some may find that the cost is becoming prohibitive.
Despite these concerns, the Disney Cruise Line remains a popular vacation option for families and Disney fans around the world. With its immersive experiences, exclusive dining options, and beloved characters, the Disney Cruise Line continues to offer a unique and unforgettable vacation experience.
However, as with any vacation, guests should be prepared for the possibility of price increases and plan accordingly. While the cost of a Disney Cruise may be higher than some other vacation options, many guests would argue that the experience is worth the premium price.
