Disney Dream Ship Closer to Reality

posted on July 16th, 2010 by Jason Lasecki, Public Relations Director, Disney Cruise Line


It’s hard to believe that the maiden voyage for the Disney Dream is a little more than 6-months away! The ship is really starting to take shape. We put together this short video showing the construction progress to date with some amazing renderings of what the end product will look like – it’s truly going to be an incredible ship. Hope you enjoy!

My daughter and I were on the Disney Magic for the inaugual Baltic Cruise and were fortunate enough to be two of the guests (there were 7 of us) that actually flew to Papenburg, Germany and spent all day at the shipyard and actually were on the Disney Dream and saw the whole ship inside and out. The ship is incredible and the pictures don’t do the ship justice! Captain Tom told us he can’t wait to bring the ship to the U.S. and we are anticipating our first time on the Disney Dream, the inaugural voyage on January 26, 2011!

David from CA on July 21st, 2010 at 6:01 pm

Too expensive and deposit is too high. Was trying to save for Disney, but other cruise lines offer similar amenities and features. All the while being 30-40% less and also 1/2 the deposit if not less. I know it’s not “Disney” That was and is the only reason I’m so disappointed. But it’s hard to make up for the 40% “it’s Disney” tax.

Karen on July 24th, 2010 at 2:25 pm

Booking our trip for March 2011… am so excited.

Carole from FL on July 31st, 2010 at 10:52 am

Dear D.S.L and Meyer Shipyard,
To be able to follow your progress on the DREAM is wonderful. I can only imagine viewing that ship in your huge building. It has to be breathtaking.
The pride that goes into the ship also has to be more then exceptional. As a Granparent who booked to sail on it in April 2011 I cannot tell you how excited we are to be able to go again and let the inner child out.
Thank you to all involved in making what only Disney can dream and make.
