We decided to look at a disney cruise for spring break, which of course is a week from today. Called DCL and they have one quad occupancy cabin left and it is $13k for a Cat 4!! The next week is only a 1/4 of that! I asked if there was any residency discounts, castaway club discounts, stimulus pkg discounts, nothing just flat 13,000!!!! Wow!

Supply, meet demand. Demand, supply.

Keep in mind that the folks at the mouse have multiple folks (and computers) who constantly analyze the demand curve for each sailing. We are going on an upcoming Western 7 nighter only because the stars aligned and there were not enough takers on a "routine" itinerary (standard western) just a few days after FL schools got out but the Northern schools were still in session, etc! The week before and the week after would have been at least $1.5K more for the two of us!
