Disney Cruise Line launched in 1998 and up until 2022 they sailed five ocean liners; Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, Disney Wish. Then along came the Disney Treasure in 2024, and much to everyone’s excitement we can also anticipate the Disney Adventure & the Disney Destiny sailing in late 2025. 

The Disney Fantasy made its debut on March 31, 2012, sailing from Port Canaveral, Florida, after being christened in New York City by Mariah Carey. As the fourth ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, it was designed to offer magical experiences for families at sea. The ship’s theming is inspired by the elegance of Art Nouveau, with flowing lines, rich colors, and whimsical Disney touches throughout, creating a sense of timeless beauty and storytelling that brings the magic of Disney to life on every deck.
