The magical moment is here! The Disney Destiny has officially set sail, and Theme Park Shark is on board for her maiden voyage and ready to sail the high seas with Mickey and friends.
After the Disney Treasure was christened almost a year ago, fans couldn’t help but look forward to the further expansion of the Disney Cruise Line fleet – which is planned to double in the coming years, giving dreamers even more opportunity to experience the signature Disney magic across the world.
Cruise to Magical Destinations
The Disney Destiny has officially launched its inaugural season, offering of 4- and 5-night cruises from Fort Lauderdale to The Bahamas and Western Caribbean. With Very Merrytime and Halloween on the High Seas cruises already available for the 2026 season, the Disney Destiny is going full steam ahead and shows no signs of slowing down now that she’s sailing! For those interested in booking further out, extended 7-night Bahamian and Western Caribbean cruises are also available via Disney’s direct booking site.
With a wide array of staterooms to choose from – each packed with luxury features and amenities – the Disney Destiny is a unique gem among the illustrious Disney fleet, featuring 1,246 rooms. Among these, 53 Concierge staterooms and 23 Concierge suites offer an elevated Disney Cruise experience for those looking to make the most magic. Rooms range from 169 square feet for standard inside staterooms to 1,966 feet for the illustrious Concierge Destiny Tower Suite – with only one Destiny Tower Suite on the ship, you can be sure that your stay in this highly-sought-after room will be an unforgettable experience that defines the Disney vacation of a lifetime.
These staterooms are simple but elegant, with plenty of room for guests to settle in for their extended voyages. Many staterooms offer split bathrooms and privacy partitions to make the most of the space, and accessible rooms are available for guests with accessibility needs not met by the standard stateroom.
New to the Disney Destiny
Several new experiences are being discovered as guests explore this vessel for the first time. From thrilling new entertainment to legendary dining, the Disney Destiny offers never-before-seen magic that goes above and beyond the Disney gold standard to create memories that will last a lifetime. Disney magic can be felt throughout this ship, in all of its shows, restaurants, lounges, and even the Grand Hall that ties everything together in a story about destiny that speaks to the adventurer in all of us.
New locations like Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King offer guests a specially-crafted experience that blends entertainment and dining, celebrating the iconic music of The Lion King in a new dinner show that will have you roaring with excitement. High-tech sets infused with classic Disney magic help the dining room transform throughout the show, bringing the breathtaking sunrise of the savanna right to the theater.
Also exclusive to the Disney Destiny is a thrilling addition to the lineup of stage entertainment. Joining famous stage shows aboard the Disney Cruise line such as Frozen, Moana, and Tangled comes Disney’s Hercules. Around an hour long, this multi-media stage production showcases broadway-style singing, dancing, and theatrics that effortlessly retell a Disney Classic in a new way that brings you closer to the heroics than ever before. With a high-energy cast and a subtle twist on the characters we already love, Hercules as performed on the Disney Destiny is a one-of-a-kind show that tells the tale of a larger than life myth for a modern audience.
Tying all of the Disney Destiny’s newest experiences together is the Grand Hall – the ship’s central gathering space inspired by the bold designs of the Marvel Studios’ “Black Panther” films. With accents inspired by the different tribes of Wakanda, fans of the film will be excited to see The River Tribe, Royal Family, and the Jabari Tribe all represented within the Grand Hall’s elegant design. Guests who dare to stay up past their bedtime can even witness a magical transformation take place in the Grand Hall. In classic Disney fashion, this magical show takes place at the stroke of midnight, and illuminates the Grand Hall in an unbelievable lights show for an experience you won’t want to miss.
With over thirty new experiences exclusive to the Disney Destiny spread out across multiple decks, there’s plenty to explore and indulge in. In the coming days, Theme Park Shark is going to be taking a closer look at some of these new experiences, including new buffet-styled dining at Marceline’s Market and lounges available across the ship inspired by timeless tales and beloved characters from Disney’s history.
