I haven’t seen anything about a ship being released in 2020. Just the other 3. Where is this from?

 

[GoofyLovingFamily]

I had not heard of the 2020 ship. Very interesting!

Looks like the list came from here:

http://www.cruiseserver.net/travelpage/other/new_build.asp

They don't source their info.

THis list, OTOH, from "Cruise Industry News" does not list Disney in 2020, but does have the other dates: https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/cruise-ship-orderbook.html

They also have a short article covering the announcement of the three: https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/17507-disney-to-add-to-meyer-order-three-ships.html

The Meyer Werft site also lists only the 3: http://www.meyerwerft.de/en/meyerwe...ffe/disney_cruise_line/disney_cruise_line.jsp

It takes about 3 years to go from the first steel cut to sailing, so I'm going to agree with the above that the 2020 ship is not happening. They also missed that the new ships will be LNG powered.

Makes sense..

I believe there are only three ships on the horizon for the Mouse, too. However, if you look at the construction of their lifeboats... By the way, I think Disney has enough names in their vast library of films and shows to name every lifeboat on all the ships for years to come. If you get a chance to see inside one (we have twice), they are very cool. I hope I never have to use one, but knowing they are up-to-date and efficient is certainly reassuring.
