Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship, Disney Wish, will set sail on its maiden voyage, July 14, 2022. After the inaugural 5-night sailing, the ship will offer 3 and 4-night Bahamian cruises sailing from Port Canaveral to Nassau and Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay. The Disney Wish is packed full of Disney magic, offering its guests new immersive dining experiences, innovative family programming, adult escapes, and spectacular staterooms that provide a restful retreat after your magical day of adventures both on and off the ship!
Here are the 5 Reasons why Disney’s newest ship should be on your Wish List!

The Disney Wish will feature unique dining adventures that will plunge you right into the stories of your favorite Disney princesses and Marvel superheroes. At Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure, you are cordially invited to Arendelle to celebrate Queen Anna and Kristoff’s engagement with festive theatrical music performances by Anna, Elsa, Olaf & Kristoff while enjoying Oaken’s finest Norwegian-inspired cuisine.
Princesses not really your thing? How about taking on your own heroic role in an epic mission with Antman and Wasp during Avengers: Quantum Encounter?

#2: Innovated Disney Family Entertainment
Disney continuously seeks innovative ways to enhance their family entertainment by incorporating the latest technology and design into every experience. The Disney Wish is no exception, and in fact, this ship will be home to the first ever Disney attraction at sea – Aquamouse! Take the twists and turns of the 760 foot long aqua coaster with your favorite pals, Mickey and Minnie, on an incredible journey featuring show scenes, music, lighting and special effects.
Grab your “enchanted spyglass” (mobile device) and take a Disney Uncharted Adventure through the ship to uncover quests that allow guests an opportunity to interact with the ship in new and exciting ways. The Walt Disney Theater on board the Disney Wish offers Broadway style shows including a new rendition of Disney’s timeless animated classic, The Little Mermaid. Plus, guests can enjoy other original shows like Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular and and Disney Seas the Adventure – all included with your cruise!

Onboard the Disney Wish, children (ages 3-12) become super heroes at Marvel Super Hero Academy. During their Academy visit, they will choose their own super suit and train with their favorite superheroes like Spiderman, Black Panther, Ant Man and Wasp.
Have your kids ever dreamed of joining the Resistance? At Star Wars Galactic Creature Keepers, Chewy and Rey need the help of the Resistance’s newest recruits to channel the force and take care of the life like galactic creatures in an immersive Star Wars Cargo Bay.
Also on board the Disney Wish, dreams come true as kids become Disney’s newest Imagineers where they can design their very own attraction in the Walt Disney Imagineering Lab.
And for your princess, a visit to Fairytale Hall is a must-do! Spend time with fellow princesses enjoying the things they love to do like; painting with Rapunzel, storytelling with Belle and creating ice magic with Anna & Elsa.
Tweens (Ages 11-14) and Teens (14-17) have their own clubs to escape. Each club features uniquely designed hangout spots featuring movies, games and more, all of which are supervised by the coolest Disney Cast Members on the ship!
#4: Exclusive Adult Escapes
Family fun on vacation is very important, but adults deserve time to kick back and relax while the kids are busy enjoying their kids club adventures. Every Disney Cruise Line ship has activities and amenities exclusively for adults (18+) and the Disney Wish will feature some new and exciting venues to dine, relax and recharge.
How does a quiet outdoor infinity edge pool with a poolside bar and lounge sound? The Quiet Cove offers the perfect setting for adults to relax and soak up the sun on a large secluded section of the upper deck. After getting some vitamin D, head to Senses Spa and step into a Rainforest oasis offering an indoor area with heated lounges, fountains, an aromatherapy steam room, a dry sauna and a calming pool. There are also plenty of outdoor spaces where adults can relax in the shade or take a dip in one of the refreshing outdoor pools.
Once you are relaxed and refreshed, enjoy a drink from one of the many bars and lounges including Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge where you can watch familiar planets and ships from the Star Wars Galaxy pass by while sipping on your favorite “out of this world” cocktail.
If you are looking for a more elegant experience, head to one of the three luxurious themed Beauty and the Beast dining venues; Palo Steakhouse which offers amazing ocean views with decor nods to Cogsworth, Enchanté by Chef Arnaud Lallement a 3 star Michelin chef with design eliminates inspired by Lumiere and the Rose lounge reminiscent of the Beast’s enchanted castle.
#5: Luxurious Staterooms Fit for Royalty
Disney continues its tradition of artful design and storytelling in decor found throughout the ship, but it’s especially noticeable in the magically designed staterooms which feature artwork and subtle hints from its iconic Disney films. With various stateroom categories, it will be easy to find the perfect fit for your family.
Select staterooms offer beautiful oceanviews and split bathrooms and all staterooms offer a queen-size bed, convertible sofa with pull-down bed and a sitting area.
