Disney Cruise Line has updated its membership terms for its Castaway Club, including a new requirement for members to retain their status.
What’s Happening:
- Disney Cruise Line has updated its Castaway Club membership terms.
- According to the FAQ on the Disney Cruise Line website, “Guests who have completed one eligible Disney cruise automatically qualify for Castaway Club membership. To remain in the program, Castaway Club Members must book or sail on at least one eligible cruise within 5 years of their last Disney voyage. Please note that we periodically review the Castaway Club program and may make updates accordingly.”
- At this time, it’s unclear whether lapsed memberships will resume at the same level once an eligible sailing is completed.
- It’s also not yet known whether this new policy will be retroactive or if the 5-year clock starts now.
