Sad news. Disney Cruise Lines just announced that the inaugural sailings of the Disney Wish will have to be postponed due to delays at the shipyard caused by the pandemic. If you had a cruise booked that got affected, you will be getting an email from Disney Cruise Lines with more details. Here is a snippet of their announcement.
Disney Cruise Line has no other choice than to delay the maiden voyage by a few weeks, which will regrettably affect sailings through mid-July. Guests who were booked on the original maiden voyage will be automatically shifted to a new sail date of July 14 at a 50 percent discount. If they are unable to move to the new sail date, they will have the option of either a 50 percent discount on a future cruise departing by December 31, 2023, with any originally paid funds converted to a Future Cruise Credit, or a full refund.
Guests who were originally booked on the other affected sailings will have the option of either a 50 percent discount on a future cruise departing by December 31, 2023, with any originally paid funds converted to a Future Cruise Credit, or a full refund.
We have temporarily paused the sale of all Disney Wish sailings while we process these changes. As a result, all affected sailings will no longer be visible online or in the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app. On February 8, Disney Wish sales will resume and new sailings may be booked online.

So, that’s a big bummer! We had a sailing booked for June, so I guess we’ll be doing July now. Crossing fingers it won’t get delayed more.
We love the Disney cruises and just did one on the Fantasy this past December. You can read all about it in my Dec 2021 Trip Recap.
If you’re interested in booking a sailing on Disney’s new ship, which looks amazing, feel free to contact me. I’ll be glad to help.
