DCL sailing year round from Galveston in 2027

Additionally, Rees said that Disney Cruise Line, which began off-season sailings from Galveston in 2012, will sail year-round from the port starting in 2027. He added that Disney may bring in a much larger ship than the Magic as part of the switch.

I’m guessing the Dream. The article speculates the Adventure but I doubt it.

Great for Texas. I'm surprised they don't sail out of Long Beach in the Summer. Disneyland is such a locals park maybe it wouldn't be the draw that Port Canaveral is.

I just saw this online great news for this Texas family! Galveston is an awesome port to cruise out of.

Im a little surprised by this considering how much they needed to discount some of the Galveston sailings this past winter but then I remembered that the new Wish class (the US bound one) is set for 2027 and makes sense that either the Fantasy or the Dream needs a new home.

The Adventure would be a good pick since Galveston is home to two 5000+ passenger ships already.

Adventure won't be sailing out of anywhere but Singapore for a while. There is a 5-year contract between DCL and the Singapore Tourism board; meaning the Adventure will be there at least through 2030. I agree with others about it being a Dream class ship. I'm going to say the Fantasy. The Dream is already year-round in Fort Lauderdale and PC will be more crowded once the 4th Wish Class ship comes online.

Do you think that the new wish class will be at Port Canaveral? Because I’m not sure since the Destiny went straight to Fort Lauderdale and it seems like that port really struggles a lot more than Port Canaveral to fill ships.

Honestly, no, not really. I almost speculated that WIsh #4 would go to Galveston. WIth the fleet expanding exponentially in the next 6 years anything is possible!

If the Dream home bases in Texas, I wonder which ship would do Europe moving forward. Fantasy?

There was a rumor a few months ago that a Wish-class ship may eventually be headed to Europe starting in 2027. There was a lot of back and forth on how credible the source was... but the rumor is out there. And from what I can see, Barcelona, Civitavecchia and Southampton can provide LNG fuel to ships

Awesome. It's a very quick flight there for us or heck we could drive in a pinch!

I saw a rumor that the Wish will do the 2027 Europe season and do her 5 year dry dock at the end of the summer season

That’s sort of makes sense. I seen people commenting that the screen on the lower section of the funnel vision was in bad shape.

We still don’t know what they are doing with Magic and Wonder after Alaska next. One is probably going to Australia but where does other one go?

I also don’t think they would have only Triton class at Port Canaveral. The Fantasy is a popular ship plus so much easier to tack on WDW stays before or after your cruise if you’re sailing from PC.

By 2027, the 4th Wish class may be complete

DCL made a port agreement for more frequent cruises to Catalina so maybe one in Australia and one out of San Diego when not in Alaska?

Wish to Europe summer of 2027- New wish class, Fantasy, Treasure, Destiny out of FL in summer of 2027? Dream out of Galveston? Fully guessing at this point.

I’m hoping that in 2027 the Wish to Europe rumor comes true, and after that they mix it up each year which ship comes over.
