Booking Windows and Season Overview
Today marks general booking for Disney Cruise Line's Fall 2027 and Spring 2028 season. It spans all eight ships in the fleet. Select Castaway Club members already had a head start, with early access beginning August 31st. As of today, the full season is open to everyone.
The season carries the itineraries Disney Cruise Line detailed when it announced the lineup in August. That includes Disney Cruise Line's return to New York, new Panama Canal crossings for the Disney Magic, and the Disney Destiny's first Port Canaveral season. Halloween on the High Seas sailings return in September 2027. Very Merrytime cruises follow in November and December with holiday decor and visits from Santa Claus.
Disney Wish Returns to New York for Bermuda and Canada Sailings
The Disney Wish arrives in New York in late September 2027 following its inaugural season in Europe. Seven itineraries make up the New York season. They range from four to seven nights and run between late September and early November 2027. Full pricing and stateroom details for all seven sailings are available in our earlier coverage of the Disney Wish's New York season.
Five of the seven sailings visit Bermuda. Three of those add an extra day in King's Wharf. Disney Cruise Line is also sailing from New York to New England and Canada's Atlantic coast for the first time in nearly four years. Stops include Saint John, Boston, Halifax, Charlottetown, and Sydney. One sailing closes the season with a one-way voyage from New York to San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Booking is now open across all seven of these itineraries. Interest in the New York season has been high. Disney Cruise Line first teased the return with a coordinate-themed graphic pointing to six port cities ahead of the full reveal.
Disney Magic Adds Panama Canal Crossings and New Homeports
The Disney Magic makes two repositioning cruises through the Panama Canal during the season. Each one runs 14 nights and includes a maiden call for the ship. The eastbound crossing stops in Fuerte Amador, near Panama City, while the westbound crossing stops in Colón, the Caribbean gateway to the canal.
Repositioning cruises like these trade port time for extra days at sea. Guests get more time for onboard entertainment and dining while the ship moves between coasts. The Disney Magic uses the crossings to shift between a San Diego season, shared with the Disney Wonder, and a Galveston season. That Galveston season runs four to seven nights, with select seven-night Bahamian itineraries stopping at both Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point and Disney Castaway Cay.
Disney Destiny Homeports in Port Canaveral for the First Time
The Disney Destiny homeports in Port Canaveral for the first time during the season. It opens in Fort Lauderdale with three- to five-night Bahamas and Western Caribbean sailings built around the ship's heroes-and-villains dining and entertainment, then shifts to Port Canaveral for three- to seven-night cruises to the Bahamas and Western Caribbean for the rest of the season.
With the Disney Destiny in Port Canaveral, the port now welcomes three ships at once. It joins the Disney Wish, which returns there for three- and four-night Bahamian cruises after its New York and San Juan sailings. Those stops include Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. The Disney Treasure also continues its seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean sailings from the port. Two additional voyages round out its season: an eight-night Eastern Caribbean sailing and a six-night Bahamian sailing with two stops at Disney Castaway Cay.
More Booking Options From San Juan, Fort Lauderdale, and Singapore
Both the Disney Wish and Disney Fantasy add sailings from San Juan during the season. Five- to seven-night Southern and Eastern Caribbean itineraries are now open for booking from the historic Puerto Rican port. San Juan joins each ship's other homeports for the season, giving guests another point of entry for Caribbean sailings.
The Disney Fantasy also sails four- and five-night Bahamas and Western Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral between September and November 2027. It then moves to Fort Lauderdale for four- to seven-night Bahamas and Eastern Caribbean sailings. From there, it sails to Bermuda for the first time, on an eight-night cruise visiting both of Disney Cruise Line's Bahamian island destinations. The Disney Dream follows a similar pattern. It opens in Port Canaveral with three- and four-night Bahamian cruises, then repositions to Fort Lauderdale in November 2027, including a six-night sailing with two stops at Disney Castaway Cay.
Farther from Florida, the Disney Adventure opens booking for new three- and four-night itineraries from Singapore between September and December 2027. Select sailings from December 31st, 2026, through May 2027 add a new port of call for the ship: Langkawi, Malaysia. Guests on those sailings can explore the island's rainforests and coastline.
