Beginning in January 2026, Disney Cruise Line will no longer offer pre- or post-nights and theme park tickets at Walt Disney World as add-ons to cruise reservations.

Pre- or Post-Nights & Park Tickets at Walt Disney World

The change goes into effect on January 2, 2026. A resort stay and tickets must be booked separately and not as an add-on to a cruise reservation. Disney shares this will help ensure best packages and pricing, which are currently unavailable through Disney Cruise Line.

For those with existing reservations that include pre- or post-nights at Disney World, nothing will change unless you want to modify the resort hotel, room type, or number of nights. In that case, the add-on will need to be canceled, and you will need to re-book through Disney World.

Ground transfers between the Walt Disney World Resort Hotel and Port Canaveral can still be added to the cruise reservation.
