ORLANDO, Fla. — Disney Cruise Line will place two of its expanding fleet in Alaska for summer 2026 while keeping four ships sailing from Florida ports.
The line announced its plans Thursday with the highlight of sending Disney Magic and Disney Wonder, its two oldest and smallest vessels, to sail Alaskan itineraries out of Vancouver.
Starting in May 2026 the ships will begin seven-night voyages with varied itineraries that may visit Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan as well as some visits to Dawes Glacier and Icy Strait Point.
In Florida, Port Canaveral will continue to host year-round sailings from three ships while Port Everglades will host one, with the ports offering stops among its sailings to either Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, the cruise line’s two private Bahamas destinations.
New ship Disney Treasure will continue seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries while sister ship Disney Wish will keep performing short three- and four-night Bahamas duties from Port Canaveral. In addition, Disney Fantasy will do mostly four- and five-night trips plus one special 10-night Southern Caribbean voyage.
