All Aboard the Disney Destiny: A Heroic (and Villainous) New Chapter at Sea

If you’ve ever dreamed of sailing into a world where Disney storytelling meets ocean adventure, the brand-new Disney Destiny might just be your next dream vacation. Launching its inaugural voyage on November 20, 2025 from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this ship isn’t just another addition to the Disney Cruise Line fleet—it’s a floating stage where heroes and villains share the spotlight.

A New Wish Class Wonder

The Disney Destiny is the newest member of Disney’s Wish Class ships, designed to bring state-of-the-art entertainment, dining, and décor to the high seas. What sets it apart is its bold theme—the dynamic interplay between heroes and villains. Every corner, restaurant, and lounge invites guests to explore both sides of Disney storytelling: the courageous, and the delightfully wicked.

Rotational Dining: A Culinary Adventure Every Night

One of the signature Disney Cruise Line experiences is rotational dining—a fun twist that lets you enjoy different themed restaurants each night while your same friendly serving team follows along. On the Disney Destiny, guests will rotate through three distinct dining venues, each more imaginative than the last.

🦁 Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King Brand new to the Destiny, this dinner-and-a-show experience immerses guests in the world of The Lion King. With live musical moments, African-savanna-inspired design, and a breathtaking sunrise-to-sunset backdrop, it’s dinner theater with Disney flair.

🦸‍♂️ Worlds of Marvel Step into the Marvel universe for a meal that’s part dining, part adventure. Expect appearances by your favorite heroes—and maybe a few surprises—as you dine amid Guardians- and Avengers-inspired storytelling.

🎨 1923 Named for the year Walt and Roy Disney founded their studio, this elegant restaurant celebrates Disney animation’s golden history. Onboard the Destiny, 1923 highlights tales of heroes and villains from films like Hercules, Big Hero 6, and Wreck-It Ralph.

Showtime! Broadway-Style Entertainment at Sea

When the sun sets, the spotlight shines. The Destiny’s lineup of Broadway-caliber shows and signature entertainment is designed to dazzle every age group.

🎭 Disney’s Hercules Exclusive to the Destiny, this new musical reimagines Hercules with powerful performances of fan favorites like “Go the Distance” and “Zero to Hero,” plus a brand-new original song.

❄️ Frozen: A Musical Spectacular Step into Arendelle as Anna, Elsa, and Olaf bring the beloved film to life on stage with breathtaking effects and show-stopping vocals.

🌊 Disney Seas the Adventure A high-energy, opening-night show where Captain Minnie hands over the helm to Goofy. Along the way, he’s joined by friends from The Princess and the Frog, Moana, Frozen, and more.

Adults-Only Escapes: Lounges & Nightlife

While Disney cruises are known for family fun, the Disney Destiny offers plenty of spaces for grown-ups to unwind, sip something special, and enjoy a little themed magic of their own.

🐾 De-Vil’s Lounge Chic, bold, and a little bit wicked—this piano bar inspired by Cruella de Vil serves up martinis, champagne, and boutique cocktails with dramatic flair.

👻 Haunted Mansion Parlor Bar Equal parts eerie and elegant, this lounge channels the spirit (literally!) of Disney’s classic Haunted Mansion. Expect vintage décor, ghostly portraits, and a sophisticated, spooky vibe.

🏴‍☠️ Cask & Cannon A cozy, pirate-themed tavern inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean, complete with sports screens, rustic barrels, and brews fit for buccaneers.

🌀 The Sanctum Step into the multiverse of Doctor Strange in this mystical lounge that blends Marvel lore with cutting-edge mixology. Expect spellbinding drinks and a touch of sorcery in every sip.

Final Thoughts: A Cruise Where Every Story Comes Alive

The Disney Destiny isn’t just a cruise—it’s a voyage into storytelling itself. Whether you’re a Marvel fan, a Disney classic devotee, or someone who secretly roots for the villain, this ship offers a place for your inner hero (or mischief-maker) to set sail.

Come November 20, 2025, prepare to embark on an adventure where every meal, show, and lounge tells a story—and you’re right at the heart of it.
