How do you plan your first Disney cruise?
Pick a sailing that fits your time off, then a ship and stateroom. Disney Cruise Line now has eight ships, so the ship and departure port shape your trip as much as the length.
The fleet
Disney Cruise Line sails eight ships: Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, Disney Wish, Disney Treasure, Disney Destiny and Disney Adventure. Disney Adventure entered service in March 2026 and sails short cruises from Singapore. Disney Believe, the next ship, is scheduled to set sail on December 18, 2027 from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale.
Itineraries and ports
Sailings leave from Port Canaveral and Fort Lauderdale in Florida. Other 2026 and 2027 departure ports include Galveston, Texas, San Diego, San Juan, Puerto Rico, Vancouver for Alaska and Singapore for Disney Adventure. Disney Wish is scheduled to sail from New York starting in fall 2027. Itineraries include the Bahamas and Caribbean, Alaska in summer, the Mexican Riviera and seasonal sailings such as Halloween on the High Seas.
Private islands
Disney Cruise Line has Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, which opened in June 2024. See the island guide.
