Fall 2026 itineraries

[SomePixiedust]

NYC lets keep our heads up!!! Disney Wonder/Fantasy HOTH Bermuda from NYC you're our hail mary!!!!!

What about the Dream from NYC? Next summer, the Dream is in Europe. Transatlantic from Europe to New York City. Several weeks in New York then one way to Puerto Rico. That’s what they’ve done in the past with whichever ship was in Europe when it wasn’t going into dry dock.

That means another Panama Canal sailing if the magic is actually going back to Galveston, which I will take

This is what I'm hoping for, too! Although I will be conflicted if they are sailing from NYC in the fall. Maybe NYC in the fall and PC in the spring?

Yeah - I think a lot of people booked on the WBPC in April 2026 will be dropping it in favor of a EBPC in November 2026 if that’s the case. Particularly if the port schedules are better.

Singapore is an 8 hours flight from australia. Its like saying european cruises are reducing demand for florida cruises. Ps. Australians dont like Singapore. Its a very boring city.

This is what I've heard. Not about Australians not liking Singapore, but Singapore in general. I heard if from some flight attendants and it seems to be a majority opinion on Reddit. Of course someone will chime in and say they love Singapore. I don't have an opinion I've never been there. I may cruise out of their in the future, but most likely on a long Asian cruise. I would not fly to Singapore just to see Singapore.

They could of just brought the magic and improved the itineraries and their timing. This isnt on australis lack of demand but disneys complete lack of understanding the market. Ps. The aud has risen against the usd so thats now less of a factor.

I would have loved to go to Australia for a cruise, but the time of year the cruises occur does not work for us. The one long enticing cruise they offered sets sail before schools are out for Christmas break. That one was a head scratcher for me.

It doesn't look like there's a ton of wiggle room in the port schedule for the manhattan terminal though. They could be placeholders but it looks pretty full right now.

I wonder, with the giant Adventure arriving in Singapore, if they think it will be even harder to consistently fill a ship out of Australia.

I hate to say this but was the Australia crowd not impressed with the Wonder, should the Fantasy or Dream been used?

The Magic is showing on the schedule for the port of Galveston from Nov 2026 to early January 2027 (the furthest that port schedule has posted so far).

Interesting. I was convinced the Dream would go to Galveston after Europe. I think the Dream is going to struggle this holiday season and next Spring in PE with the Destiny there

We definitely switched from the Dream to the Destiny over Spring Break once those came out. Going forward though, unless the Destiny is great, I'd probably prefer to sail the Dream (depending on itinerary).

How about this for positive vibes, Cape Liberty is only used on Sundays and alternating Saturdays and Thursdays for most of next fall. DCL could easily come up with a schedule to fill those openings. Could easily do a mix of Canada, Bermuda, and a PC/CC and/or LHP itinerary.

Does that work for you?

I think part of the deal with PE is that Disney will sail multiple ships out of there for X number of years. Maybe once that frees up you'd see Dream go to Galveston.

Edit: It's more around passenger count. Years 1 and 2 were 450,000 minimum passengers. Years 3-15 are 750,000 minimum passengers. So they'd likely need multiple ships most of the year to pull that off.

Absolutely! See ya on board!

Yeah there is no way for them to hit the passenger counts required in Port Everglades with only the Destiny. If you figure 4000 passengers per cruise doing the 5/5/4 splits that's 12,000 every 2 weeks = 390,000 per year. To get to the 750,000 per year you are going to be pretty close to 2 ships year round

The deal runs through 2038 with options for 3 additional 5 year extensions.

I remember seeing that now. I wonder ( no pun intended) if they are doing 3 night sailings on the Destiny next September to help bolster the numbers due to the Dream being away from beginning of May to October ?

Maybe they can bring Wonder over here next fall if they cancel Australia. Selfishly that will solve me having to go to the West Coast to cruise on the Wonder.

Is tomorrow the big day?

Given the ‘leaks’, I’m putting a dime on this week being the week.

We live on the West coast and cruised out of NYC three times just because all the cruises were heavily discounted. Is their really a good enough market there?

Cape Liberty would be awesome!

Disney has never used that as a departure port correct?
