About Disney Destiny

Disney Destiny is the third Wish Class ship, delivered by Meyer Werft and sailing her maiden voyage from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale on November 20, 2025. At about 144,000 gross tons with 1,246 staterooms, 15 decks and capacity for 4,000 guests, she is themed to heroes and villains: a heroic Minnie on the bow, Spider-Man on the stern as the first Marvel character to hold that spot, and a Grand Hall inspired by Wakanda from Black Panther with a statue of T’Challa.

Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King, exclusive to this ship, joins Worlds of Marvel and 1923 in the dining rotation, with live musicians retelling Simba’s story in a savannah boma. The Walt Disney Theatre premieres Disney Hercules with the Muses as narrators alongside Frozen, A Musical Spectacular and Disney Seas the Adventure. Lounges lean into the villains: De Vil’s piano bar for Cruella, the Cask & Cannon pirate pub, the Haunted Mansion Parlor and The Sanctum from Doctor Strange. The AquaMouse runs a new villain-filled short, and the Destiny Tower Suite in the funnel is themed to Iron Man.

Disney Destiny is the South Florida ship for 2026 and 2027, sailing from Fort Lauderdale on four- and five-night Bahamas cruises to Castaway Cay, Lookout Cay and Nassau, five-night Western Caribbean cruises to Cozumel and seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises. In November 2027 she moves to Port Canaveral for the first time for three- to seven-night Bahamas and Western Caribbean cruises. She suits families who want the newest Disney ship on a mid-length cruise from a drive-to port.
