Castaway Club Explained: Disney Cruise Loyalty Program Complete Guide

Everything you need to know about Disney's Castaway Club. Learn about membership levels, booking windows, and exclusive perks for repeat cruisers.

The Castaway Club is Disney Cruise Line's loyalty program, rewarding repeat cruisers with earlier booking windows and special perks. Here's how it works.

Membership Levels

  • Silver: 1-4 cruises (booking window: 90 days)
  • Gold: 5-9 cruises (booking window: 105 days)
  • Platinum: 10+ cruises (booking window: 120 days)
  • Pearl: 25+ cruises (same as Platinum with additional recognition)

Key Benefits

  • Earlier booking windows for dining and port adventures
  • Special gifts in your stateroom
  • Exclusive onboard parties and events
  • Special status lanyards
  • Members-only sales and offers
  • Priority check-in at port (Platinum)

Why Booking Windows Matter

Popular experiences like Palo brunch, Frozen dining, and in-demand port excursions sell out quickly. The 45-day advantage Platinum members have over first-timers makes a huge difference for booking sought-after experiences.
