Disney Destiny Has Arrived

Disney Destiny

The Disney Destiny has arrived at Port Canaveral, Florida! Isn’t she gorgeous??

The Disney Destiny is the seventh and newest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet. She joins the sister ships of the Wish class, the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, both based in Florida right now.

Disney Destiny

The Disney Destiny just completed her 2-week journey to America on Sunday night, November 2, 2025, from the shipyard in Germany. She will spend a short time in Port Canaveral, probably doing some media and preview cruises, before sailing to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for her Inaugural Season. The Disney Destiny will sail on her Maiden Voyage on November 20, 2025!

Disney Destiny

The Disney Destiny will primarily sail 4-night and 5-night cruises, with a few 7-night cruises sprinkled in, from Fort Lauderdale to The Bahamas and Western Caribbean. Every sailing will contain a port day at Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay, or its newest private destination, Lookout Cay. Some sailings have port stops at both locations!

Disney Destiny Grand Hall

In a departure from the other ships, the theming will be based on Heroes and Villains and feature a very different style and color scheme. The Grand Hall takes inspiration from Black Panther for the Vibranium chandelier and armor metalwork, and will feature T’Challa as the main statue. Marvel theming will also be prominent in other areas of the ship, such as Spiderman being the stern character.

Lion King dinner show restaurant

Restaurants, lounges, and staterooms will be inspired by other heroes and villains, such as The Lion King (a new dinner show restaurant), Marvel, Dr. Strange, Cruella de Vil, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Incredibles, Haunted Mansion, Iron Man, and more.

Hercules stage show

The stage shows will be Disney Seas the Adventure, Frozen—A Musical Spectacular, and, unique to the Disney Destiny ship, a new show based on Disney Hercules! This spectacular, mythical journey of good vs. evil remains true to the film’s essence, yet will present a fresh, modern take for a live theatre audience with pop and gospel musical influences.

Stay tuned for the livestream of the Disney Destiny Christening Ceremony next Monday night, November 10, 2025, at 6:30pm ET. The Disney Cruise Line Blog and social media channels will also reveal sneak peeks of the ship all day.

Destiny Christening Ceremony

The first set of Inaugural Sailings from November 2025 through May 2027 is on sale now!

If you are a Disney, Pixar, and Marvel fan, this is the ship for you. We can’t wait to check out this unique ship! If you want to chat more about Disney cruises or are interested in booking a cruise, please contact me.

Disney Treasure Ship Details Revealed

Disney Treasure

Disney Cruise Line just announced that their newest ship, the Disney Treasure, will set sail on December 21, 2024!

It will sail 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries out of Port Canaveral and bookings will start next week for Castaway Club members!

  • Sept 12 – Pearl Castaway Club
  • Sept 13 – Platinum Castaway Club & Golden Oak
  • Sept 14 – Gold Castaway Club
  • Sept 18 – DVC & Adventure Insiders
  • Sept 19 – Silver Castaway Club
  • Sept 20 – General (1st timers)

Update: Dates have been revealed here.

Disney Treasure lounge

In a Disney Treasure reveal video, we were introduced to some of the venues and their themes on this new ship. The layout and venues of the ship sound pretty much the same as the Wish, its sister ship, but with an overall “adventure” theme.

Disney Treasure Grand Hall

The grand hall will be inspired by the gorgeous stylings of Aladdin with Aladdin and Jasmine being the atrium statues. The atrium chandelier looks like an elaborate lantern and will be the main feature of nighttime light shows.

There will be a brand new live theater show, but they have not announced specifics on that yet. However, Seas the Adventure and Beauty and the Beast will be the other two shows. I am so excited! Beauty and the Beast is a-maz-ing on the Dream and it’s one of my all-time favorite movies. The live theater shows are Broadway caliber shows on the Disney ships and should not be missed!

Update: The brand new live theater show has finally been revealed here.

One of the restaurants will be Plaza de Coco with live performances by Miguel and other live performers. The other two restaurants will continue to be The Worlds of Marvel and 1923. Since these will be 7-night itineraries, that means you will eat in each restaurant at least twice, and they usually offer different experiences each night.

The AquaMouse water coaster will feature a new mis-adventure with Mickey and the gang.

Lion King inspired lounge

The staterooms, lounges, and event spaces are inspired by The Lion King, Utopia, Jungle Cruise, 20000 Leagues Under the Sea, Pocahontas, Aladdin, Up, Encanto, and other adventurous Disney and Pixar friends.

Update: Haunted Mansion Parlor revealed here!

Disney Treasure veranda stateroom

One of the funnel tower suites will be inspired by EPCOT!

Tower suite

The youth activity clubs sound very similar to the ones on the Wish, with areas inspired by Star Wars, Disney Princesses, and Walt Disney Imagineering.

There are many things still yet to be revealed, but it all sounds very exciting so far! This sounds like the perfect Christmas present for December 2024! I can’t wait!

Bookings open next week and I’m sure the inaugural sailings and especially the maiden voyage will book up very quickly! If you’re interested in booking a cruise, email me ASAP.

AdventuresByAnne@gmail.com

We’ll see ya there!
