The Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy are now sailing from Port Canaveral, FL, and the entire Disney Cruise Line family couldn’t be happier to welcome you back on board once again.

We know there are things you absolutely love about sailing with us, and we’ve paid special attention to bringing to life favorite experiences like dazzling entertainment, fun and relaxation for adults, amazing youth clubs, fireworks at sea and unforgettable character appearances in new ways. We even threw in a few new surprises! Check out this video for a sneak peek at all the excitement that could be waiting for you aboard the Disney fleet, then read on for additional details about what’s new.


Welcome Aboard!

The magic of a Disney cruise begins as soon as you step onto the ship, and we’ve added even more fun to your first moments onboard. Following our signature announcement of your family when embarking the ship, you will be invited to step into the atrium for an interactive musical moment with Captain Minnie and Captain Mickey.

Meals with a Twist

We are adding an extra dash of magic to dinner time with new entertainment in our family dining rooms. In Enchanted Garden, get ready for a high-energy celebration starring Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto. In Royal Palace (Disney Dream) and Royal Court (Disney Fantasy), you’ll have the opportunity to greet the Disney princesses as you enter the restaurant and enjoy live music during dinner. And on cruises that are four nights or longer, you’re in for a swashbuckling adventure on pirate night when rowdy buccaneers take over all of the dining rooms.

Meet Favorite Disney Friends

Get ready for fun character sightings throughout your cruise – whether it’s Goofy making a special appearance in the Walt Disney Theatre, princesses greeting your family in the atrium or the Green Army Patrol roaming the upper decks, your favorite Disney friends will appear in unexpected places aboard the ship … and even on Castaway Cay! 

With character appearances, dinners filled with magic moments and many of your favorite entertainment offerings, we can’t wait for your family to experience the enchanting entertainment on board Disney Cruise Line.
