Disney Cruise Line Updates

June 26, 2016

Disney Cruise Line announced that it is building two new ships to be completed in 2021 and 2023.  They will be the largest in the fleet with about 1,250 guest staterooms.  In addition, the Disney Wonder is undergoing renovation and will receive several new and exciting attractions.  As part of Disney’s Oceaneer Club kids program, the new Marvel Super Hero Academy is designed to teach kids teamwork, bravery and problem-solving through hands-on play and programs.  The club, for ages 3-12, will also showcase Frozen Adventures.  A digital Olaf will lead many of the games, and your children will prepare for a regal coronation and receive an in-person visit from Anna and Elsa.   Other areas of the ship are being modernized, including the Senses Spa & Salon, which will receive a new Chill Teen Spa space.  The outdoor decks will also receive new features including the Twist ‘n’ Spout water slide, a Dory’s Reef splash zone for toddlers, and the AquaLab pool and interactive water play area for kids.  The first sailing after the renovations is scheduled for November 10 out of Galveston. The ship will operate Bahamas and Caribbean sailings from Galveston through January 2017, when it will move to Port Canaveral (via two short sailings to and then from San Juan) to homeport for the spring.
