Ahoy, Disney fans! Get ready to embark on a truly legendary journey as Disney Cruise Line unveils its newest ship, the Disney Destiny, set to sail by late 2025 from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This hero and villain-inspired vessel promises a cruise experience teeming with enchanting storytelling, larger-than-life characters, and unforgettable adventures.
One of the crowning jewels aboard the Disney Destiny is Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King. Imagine dining within a savanna-inspired venue, where the stunning back wall transitions from sunrise to sunset while you enjoy a meal. Live musicians and storytellers will enchant guests with beloved tunes like “Circle of Life” and “Hakuna Matata”, making every bite a soulful celebration of Simba’s journey. The themed menu will be the perfect accompaniment to this musical odyssey through one of Disney’s most iconic films.
Sweet tooth aficionados, rejoice! The ship also introduces Edna Á La Mode Sweets, a confectionary wonderland inspired by the lab of the ever-fabulous Edna Mode from The Incredibles. Picture modern sewing equipment reimagined as sweet-making machines, whipping up delicious gelato, ice cream, cookies, and candies. It’s a delightful treat that pays homage to both Edna and the whimsically unpredictable baby Jack-Jack.
But the Disney Destiny doesn’t stop there. Fuel up at Café Megara and Café Merida, named after the iconic heroines from Hercules and Brave. Whether you prefer the Greco disco vibes inspired by Mount Olympus or the Celtic charm reminiscent of Scottish Highlands, these cafes will serve a diverse selection of coffee, tea, and snacks to energize your days at sea.
When it’s time to unwind, the Disney Destiny’s staterooms will offer luxurious retreats adorned with custom artwork depicting the epic sagas of Disney legends. From spacious family rooms to lavish concierge suites inspired by classics like Fantasia and The Incredibles, every detail is designed to envelop guests in Disney magic. Concierge guests can look forward to an elevated experience with exclusive amenities and private sun decks, ensuring a vacation that’s as comfortable as it is captivating.
With a gross tonnage of approximately 144,000 and powered by liquefied natural gas, the Disney Destiny is a marvel of modern cruising. Alongside other additions to the Disney Cruise Line fleet, such as the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, the Disney Destiny signifies a bright future for Disney’s high-seas adventures.
