Disney Destiny - Bow

Disney Destiny Overview

When designing this new ship, Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney Imagineering teams were "inspired by the dynamic duality of every great Disney story, where opposing forces of light and dark drive characters to rise to their purpose." While onboard, guests will interact with heroes and villains from stories such as "Hercules," "The Lion King" and "One Hundred and One Dalmatians."

Disney Destiny — Grand Hall featuring Loki

In fact, Disney confirmed that guests may encounter Maleficient, Dr. Facilier, Cruella, Hook, Oogie Boogie, Captain Jack Sparrow and Bruno!

For the first time, the ship's character statue will feature a Marvel Super Hero: T'Challa, the original Black Panther. And one Marvel fan favorite in particular will declare himself ruler of the ship: Loki! The Grand Hall will also feature a 360-degree lighting effect that will react to appearances by iconic Disney and Marvel characters.

Disney Destiny - Bow Artwork featuring Minnie Mouse

We got a first look at the initial renderings of the ship's exterior and filigree artwork for the bow of the ship, which is a Disney Cruise Line tradition. In her best heroic cape, Minnie Mouse strikes a pose, ready to lead guests on grand adventures.

And who is that on the stern? New to the fleet, a Marvel Super Hero swings across the stern of a Disney Cruise Line ship. We didn't know we needed to see a Spider-Bot in a snorkel until now!

Be sure to download and share our Disney Destiny PDF for a snapshot of all the ship's highlights.

The Disney Destiny will sail year-round from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, FL, starting Nov. 20, 2025. During her inaugural season, the ship will embark on four- and five-night cruises to The Bahamas and Western Caribbean, including visits to one or both of Disney Cruise Line’s island destinations – Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay.

Are you ready for your hero's welcome on the Disney Destiny? Castaway Club members were able to start booking sailings Sept. 6, 2024. Bookings opened to the general public Sept. 12, 2024. And don't froget that Undercover Tourist offers exclusive savings on Disney Cruise Line sailings!

Disney Destiny Staterooms

Disney Destiny - Staterooms

Even heroes need their rest! As we've come to expect in any Disney Cruise Line stateroom, Disney Destiny accommodations are luxurious and absolutely gorgeous, with clean, comfy and functional designs (with a sprinkle of Disney magic). The staterooms aboard the Disney Destiny feature unique artwork showcasing legendary Disney journeys, including Hercules (shown in the photo above), Mulan, Merida and Sorcerer Mickey from Disney's "Fantasia."

You'll also find Disney Cruise Line's split bathroom concept aboard the Destiny, with connecting doors available to adjoin staterooms, both perfect to accommodate larger parties (and families). We can't wait for what looks to be a heavenly night of sleep (after a full day of adventuring, of course!).

Concierge staterooms include exclusive access to a concierge lounge and private sun deck, with staterooms and suites inspired by Fantasia. Seven oceanview rooms directly above the bridge will offer floor-to-ceiling views, with decor inspired by "The Incredibles."

Disney Destiny - Royal Suite Hercules

The Disney Destiny will also offer four royal suites. Hero Suites, inspired by "Hercules," will sport Greco-Roman architecture, colors and patterns. IncrediSuites will be a little more modern in style, taking their inspiration from "The Incredibles."

Disney Destiny - Royal Suite Incredibles

The Destiny Tower suite is the penthouse, honoring one of the greatest heroes in the MCU — Iron Man, aka Tony Stark. Look for armor-like materials, mechanical elements, a two-story window and a private ensuite elevator.

Disney Destiny Recreation and Entertainment

Disney Destiny - AquaMouse

Disney Cruise Line's signature attraction at sea — the AquaMouse — will be available on the Disney Destiny with an all-new storyline. During "Sing a Silly Song," you'll join Mickey and Minnie Mouse on a trek to the peak of Villain Mountain. And what do you do when you come face to face with these fearsome villains? Sing a silly song, of course! Sing and splash along as familiar villains such as the Queen of Hearts, Scar and even Chernabog from "Fantasia" find themselves in some downright silly situations.

Disney Destiny - Toy Story Splash Pad

Even the littlest cruisers will find room to splash and play at the splash zone, wading pool and family waterslide!

Adults will also find their own pool at Quiet Cove, with its own poolside bar and cafe.

Want to catch a movie while you cruise? Head to Never Land or Wonderland Cinemas to see first-run films and more.

Disney Destiny -Seas the Adventure

At the Walt Disney Theater, enjoy Broadway-style shows, including "Frozen, A Musical Spectacular" and "Disney Seas the Adventure," an original Disney Cruise Line show where you'll find Captain Minnie, Goofy and more of your favorite characters.

And drumroll, please! The third stage show developed exclusively for the Disney Destiny is ... "Disney Hercules!" (And the crowd goes wild!) The show will stay true to the animated film, but have a modern twist while incorporating a pop and gospel soundtrack, including a new song titled "Shooting Star." If you loved the Muses in the original film, you're in luck as they will continue to be storytellers in the show. Immersive projections will also be featured.

Disney Destiny — "Hercules" stage show puppets

The new stage show will include incredible large-scale puppets, building from the designs in "Disney The Tale of Moana" on the Disney Treasure. Tying into the ship’s "heroes and villains" theme, these puppets will bring the mythological multi-headed Hydra to life as Hercules takes on legendary challenges during his journey.

Disney Destiny - Pirates Show

Pirate's Rockin' Parlay Parrty (say that five times fast) is a nighttime spectacular featuring a live rock band and even fireworks at sea. Yarrr!

One of the Frog Fam's favorite areas, Hero Zone, will also be available on Disney Destiny. This "Incredibles"-themed obstacle course makes for a fun family competition!

Get ready for some wicked encounters on the Disney Destiny! The ship will introduce all-new ways to interact with iconic Disney villains and they're more fabulous (and mischievous) than ever.

Cruella de Vil takes center stage in not one but two entertainment experiences. Fashion lovers can walk her "wretched runway" as Cruella delivers live commentary — expect dramatic praise or prepare for brutally honest critiques. She may even stir up a little musical mayhem when she hears her infamous song, "Cruella de Vil."

You might also run into Dr. Facilier lurking in the Grand Hall, ready to dazzle with sleight of hand, clever tricks and games of chance. And for fans of spellbinding drama, Maleficent will be holding court at the Saga lounge, serving up sorcery and the chance to get up close with the mistress of all evil herself.

Disney Destiny Experiences for Kids

There's fun for the whole fam aboard the Disney Destiny. Let's take a look at some of the kids' areas!

Oceaneer Club (Ages 3 to 10 years)

Disney Destiny - Oceaneer Club

Kids ages 3 to 10 can enter the worlds of their favorite Disney, Marvel and Star Wars stories.

It's a Small World Nursery (Ages 6 months to 3 years)

Disney Destiny - Small World Nursery

This nursery, inspired by the beloved Disney attraction of the same name, offers babysitting services for an additional fee.

Older cruisers can also find areas just for them! At Edge, tweens from 11 to 13 can play games and meet new friends in a colorful space inspired by a New York City loft. And teens ages 14 to 17 can hang out at Vibe, with special activities created with them in mind.

Saga

Look for architectural nods to Wakanda in this two-story, family entertainment hub by day, and adult-exclusive entertainment venue by night.

Shopping

Disney Destiny — New ship merchandise

You’ll have the chance to grab some amazing merch that’s only available on board! Four brand-new collections will debut during the ship’s inaugural season, making it easy to bring home a special souvenir:

  • Inaugural Collection – Inspired by the ship’s Grand Hall, this line features elegant keepsakes in deep blue, purple and gold — including home items and accessories from fan-favorite brands like Loungefly and Pandora.
  • Logo Collection – Sleek and stylish, this collection features modern apparel and accessories in onyx and gold with the Disney Cruise Line logo and a custom ship design.
  • Super Character Collection – A fun, comic-style collection with Mickey, Minnie and friends as “hydro heroes,” with colorful apparel, plush, pins and drinkware.
  • Ship Collection – Inspired by the Disney Destiny itself (and that Spider-Man stern statue!), this line includes ear headbands, pins, spirit jerseys and other ship-specific souvenirs.

Plus, guests can pre-order a new Disney Destiny DisneyBand+, starting in late May. It features Captain Minnie and the ship in a nautical design and works just like a MagicBand+.

Guests on the maiden voyage (Nov. 20, 2025) will also get early access to pre-order select items. Stay tuned to your MyReservation page for details!

Disney Destiny Adults-Only Experiences

We said there's something for all age groups — and that includes those 18 and up aboard the Disney Destiny!

De Vil's 

Disney Destiny - De Vil's Piano Bar

Wind down in style at De Vil's, a piano lounge that's red, white and spotted for its namesake, Cruella de Vil. Enjoy a cocktail or martini, and watch out for the villain herself to make a cameo in this adults-exclusive lounge.

Cask and Cannon

Drink up me hearties, yo ho! Inspired by the iconic Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, head into this all-new watering hole to see live televised sporting events and enjoy (what else) rum! You'll find an extensive menu of rare, specialty and vintage rums and bootlegged brews served straight from the barrel.

The Sanctum

Disney Destiny — The Sanctum beverage and food items

Drawing inspiration from Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum, this centrally located lounge is filled with mystical artifacts and sorcerer-worthy details. You’ll spot familiar symbols from Rune Shields, the Cloak of Levitation and even spell books from the library of Kamar-Taj.

By day and night, the space transforms into an entertainment parlor with activities for guests of all ages, plus there's a magical drink menu. Specialty beverages include:

  • Circle of the Cosmos – Made with Brunswick Aces Diamonds Gin, verjus blanc and fresh lemon juice, garnished with a lemon peel spiral.
  • Vapors of Valtorr – A combo of Grey Goose Altius Vodka, ginger beer, lime juice and butterfly pea flower syrup, topped with berry-flavored bubbles.

There are even some mystical bites on the menu — stuffed waffles filled with either custard cream or mixed berry compote filling. YUM!

Haunted Mansion Parlor

Disney Destiny - Haunted Mansion Parlor

Beware of hitchhiking ghosts ... or go have a pint with them! Happy haunts will materialize in this parlor, first debuting aboard the Disney Treasure. Sample a selection of spirits (get it?) and cocktails that help tell the story of this spooky attraction in all of its forms around the world.

Palo Steakhouse and Enchante restaurants will also be available on the Disney Destiny for adults to enjoy at an additional cost, as well as The Rose lounge.

Disney Destiny Dining

Disney Cruise Line food is one of our very favorite parts of taking a Disney Cruise, not only because it's delicious, but also because of the incredible rotational dining system. You'll find each restaurant has its own theming, special touches — and sometimes, even a full show! Take a look at some of the dining options coming to the Disney Destiny.

Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King

Disney Destiny Details - Pride Lands: Feast of the Lion King

Step into a savanna-inspired venue, where it quite literally comes to life using lighting, special effects and a window-lined back wall that will showcase sunrises, sunsets and more as you enter the tale of "The Lion King." As you dine, live musicians and storytellers take the stage and present a musical journey through the iconic soundtrack, including "Circle of Life," "Hakuna Matata" and even "He Lives in You" from the sequel film and Broadway show.

Worlds of Marvel

Disney Destiny - Worlds of Marvel

Hosted by Rocket and Groot of the "Guardians of the Galaxy" films, at Worlds of Marvel, you'll join a tribute to the many Super Heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Of course, Groot has his own idea of a hero and soon plans a surprise for Rocket, just in time for dessert.

1923

Named after the year the Walt Disney Company was founded, this dining venue celebrates the legacy of Disney animation in a setting inspired by Hollywood glamour, complete with drawings, props and more from the Disney vault. To join in the ship's theming, keep an eye out for villains and heroes from "Hercules," "Sleeping Beauty" "Big Hero 6" and more.

Edna A La Mode Sweets

Disney Destiny - Edna Mode Sweets Shop

It's ice cream, darling! Edna Mode's lab has been turned into a marvelous sweet shop, with handmade gelato, ice cream, cookies, candies and more. You’ll find fashion sketches, costume models of Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl and even a fun photo op with a sculpture of Edna and Jack-Jack baking cookies. Keep an eye out for Rocky the raccoon trying to sneak a treat!

The menu is filled with tasty treats, including:

Disney Destiny — Incredibles Cupcakes

  • Character-themed cupcakes such as Violet's Purple Velvet, Mr. Incredible's Double Chocolate Fudge, Edna's Red Vanilla Marble and Elastigirl's Orange-Almond with raspberry mousse
  • Shortbread Cookies with dulce de leche filling and vanilla frosting

Cafes

Disney Destiny will also offer two cafes: Cafe Megara and Cafe Merida, each with special nods to these heroines' films (think lightning bolts and will-o'-the-wisps).
