The only thing better than a cheap cruise is a free cruise, and that’s just what kids get on select Disney cruises.
For a limited time, kids ages 12 and under sail for free when they stay with parents in select staterooms on 3-night Disney Cruise Line sailings departing January 22 through May 28, 2009. Parents just pay for kids’ taxes and fees.
Disney offers cheap cruises for adults, with a 3-night Bahamas cruise starting at $349. The trip includes stops in Nassau and Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island. At Castaway Cay, travelers can enjoy a beach barbeque, go snorkeling or parasailing, or relax with a massage in a beach cabana.
Onboard, kids, teens and adults will find plenty to do. There’s a kids pool and water slide and supervised activities for children age 3-12; volleyball and basketball courts; and an adults-only pool with two whirlpools. At night, families have their choice of shows: comedy, musicals — even a ventriloquist show.
