[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Confused how you can’t do Disneyworld but can do a cruise. If it’s a price issue, the cruise will be way more. [/quote]

I am not the OP but my family prefers the cruises to the parks.  Parks can be fun, but they are exhausting - especially if your kids are young. We joked that our children thought all of the characters only lived on the cruise ship because they are so much easier to see - vs. wasting an hour or so in line at a park in the hot sun.    It feels like a more relaxing vacation with a sprinkle of disney magic , which made everyone in our family happy with the trip. [/quote]

But OP said “can’t.” Not, “don’t want to.”[/quote]
I imagine the “can’t” as “I can’t spend another summer pushing that stroller in 100° heat and 90° humidity.”

Like, I’m sorry, I just can’t. [/quote]

OP here. Yes this is basically it. I wasn’t thinking so deeply about the language I used. We are also going with another family and if we were doing Disney World, we all may want to do a longer trip to visit Universal/ Harry Potter world (which will be more fun when the younger ones are a bit older and also into HP) and I don’t think we can do a longer trip this year. But yes, the logistics / convenience / comfort pieces are key.

I did speak to a Disney travel agent who said that the cruises (total cost) are cheaper than the park (staying at one of the 3 hotels that are adjacent to the park, so I’m curious about why you said the park is definitely cheaper?[/quote]
OP, we did Disney last year and are doing a cruise this year. We spent THOUSANDS more at Disney at we only stayed at a moderate. This comparison is only on the cost of hotel, park admission, and food, not alcohol or souvenirs, vs the price of the cruise (which includes food) and hotel the night before.

We (family of 3) did five nights at Coronado Springs, four theme park days. Our cruise will be 4-nights with a night tacked on beforehand. [/quote]
