S.S. Member Cruise 2012 and 2013

TWO Magical S.S. Member Cruises!

On Sunday December 11, 2011, book a reservation to climb aboard the majestic Disney Dream on one of two unforgettable voyages just for Disney Vacation Club Members, their family and friends. Set sail on a magical S. S. Member Cruise complete with exciting onboard entertainment, gifts, giveaways and unparalleled Disney service.



Take advantage of this unique opportunity to vacation with fellow Members and experience memories to last a lifetime.

Disney Vacation Club is setting sail on the Disney Dream for:

  • A 4-night Bahamian cruise with two scheduled stops at Castaway Cay, departing on Sunday, September 16, 2012,
  • A 3-night Bahamian cruise with one scheduled stop at Castaway Cay, departing on Thursday, January 10, 2013.

In order to allow as many Members as possible to experience the event, Members may book only one of the two voyages.
