Alaska

The Disney Wonder will once again head for the great land of Alaska with Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Tracy Arm Fjord visits. Inaugural calls will also be made at Icy Strait Point, home to one of the longest and tallest zip lines in the world, and Hubbard Glacier, the largest tidewater variety in North America, where dramatic natural ice calving can be witnessed right from the ship.

A new 9-night sailing will feature it all from Vancouver, British Columbia, on July 24, 2017, while a special 7-night cruise will highlight Icy Strait Point along with Tracy Arm, Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan on July 17, 2017 – the 62nd anniversary of Disneyland’s opening, appropriately enough. Plus, a shorter 5-night cruise will sail into Tracy Arm and call on Ketchikan on Aug. 2, 2017.

Europe

With the Disney Wonder in Alaska, the Disney Magic will sail to Europe in 2017, making inaugural calls in Amsterdam, Netherlands and Portland, England, coastal access point for historic Stonehenge.

On May 13, 2017, the ship will first cross the Atlantic from Port Canaveral, Florida to Copenhagen, Denmark on a 15-day journey that includes the aforementioned maiden port visits and opportunity to see one of the seven wonders of the medieval world.

While in the region, a 10-night cruise will also go to Amsterdam, Netherlands as well as Warnemunde (Berlin), Germany; Stockholm, Sweden; Helsinki, Finland; St. Petersburg, Russia; and Tallinn, Estonia going from Copenhagen, Denmark to Dover, England on June 18, 2017. And several other European sailings will go to the Baltic, Norwegian fjords, Iceland, British Isles and the Mediterranean in 2017.

The Caribbean

What’s more, the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy will have the Caribbean covered from their homeport of Port Canaveral, Florida in summer 2017 with a unique batch of cruises including the Fantasy‘s first voyages longer than a week since originally arriving from Europe.

The Disney Fantasy‘s deep southern Caribbean voyages will be 10- and 11-nights in length with the longer of the two departing on June 17, 2017 for Aruba, Barbados, Martinique, St. Kitts, Tortola and Castaway Cay; and the shorter leaving on June 28, 2017 for Aruba, Curacao, St. Kitts, Tortola and Castaway Cay.

Plus, Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island in the Bahamas, will be double featured on select Disney Dream cruises with repeat visits within a singular itinerary. Such 5-night voyages will depart on June 2, 11, 16, 25, 30 and July 9, 2017; and 4-night voyages will leave on June 7, 21 and July 5, 2017. Both of the sailings will also stop at Nassau, Bahamas.
