Fall 2026 itineraries

[DCLMP]

They used to do Baltics in June and Med late July and August. Then they flip flopped them.

Those fall dates must be getting close as DCL has officially come out with a statement saying "A fond farewell for now: Make unforgettable memories during this last season in Australian and New Zealand waters, sailing from October 2025 – February 2026. Bring the whole family and your friends for an unforgettable holiday filled with Characters, stories and moments you will treasure forever.

This was on the DCL facebook page.

Those fall dates must be getting close

Or (not to jinx it ) Disney saw how many people were speculating and contacting them to ask about the Australian port bookings disappearing so they needed to put out a statement. The CMs weren't exactly being coy about it when people were asking.

On the Canadian thread. The webmaster stated "that thread" is the only place where ""how the current environment effects travel to WDW and Disneyland can be discussed". I'm not quite sure what he means by "current environment", but I can take a good guess. Unless I'm reading it wrong I interpreted it to mean that Canadians can only discuss it on that thread.

Are obtuse statements that could be political depending on interpretation now allowed?

Context and intent matter. Also, we’re human and just doing our best. Not sure what else I can say. Folks on here have absolutely stated they did not want to go to country X and it’s been ok. I’m not seeing it shouldn’t be allowed when talking about the USA is all I’m trying to say, as this started when you questioned someone who said that and did not want to explain further. If you have follow up questions I’d recommend messaging a webmaster so this thread can get back on track.

Our last cruise to Greece was the 12 Might Med with Greece sailing on July 6, and we had beautiful weather also. It was hot, but I like the hot weather, and we stayed well hydrated.

Not on a cruise but I get the week of the 4th off and spent it in Athens and then traveled to Crete. I felt the same - hot but I liked it. Did not stop us from hiking around and doing everything we wanted. It did mean a shower in both the morning and at night when we returned though!

Since they keep pushing out the release date for fall 2026/spring 2027, any a realistic possibility they would add summer 2027 to the release when it is finally made, or is summer 2027 still not likely to be released until feb/march 2026 ?

Thanks !

I'm very curious about where the Wonder and Magic will go after the Alaska season in Fall 2026. Probably won't happen, but I'd love to see one of the smaller ships in the Southern Caribbean, sailing more interesting itineraries. I've done the Bahamas and Western with DCL (plus two Eastern itineraries with other lines) and I just find the current DCL offerings so boring! I can see why they will keep the big, new ships on those routes and many people like them, but the small ships would be perfect for something more interesting. I loved Barbados, Dominica and Curacao and would really like to see Disney going there on a regular basis.

I predict the Fall release this Tuesday...because we're boarding the Wonder tomorrow.

Before we had our daughter, my husband and I would always go on those southern Caribbean itineraries, usually on Royal Caribbean. I loved how many islands we would hit up. They’d be out of San Juan.

Yes and we will also probably be about page 50 as was guessed.

Have a great time! We are just getting off. I hope you have better weather than us in Ketchikan. It was horrible rain. We went on a tour and our guide told us it was the worst rain it’s been all season. I was like wow wonderful for us .

I would love two ships in Europe. Mostly because I wish DCL would do the Greek isle itineraries in July instead of June. We are still in school in June so it never is able to work out for us

And I want more kids in school pricing in the Med, so would love a Greek isles in September. I’d also love to see DCL start/end some cruises in Athens and not Rome.

Assuming that Wish #4 maiden in early July 27, which seems like it could happen, can the Florida port agreements be fulfilled if two ships are in Europe? Especially if they both go over in May?

Florida would have what- Dream, Destiny, Treasure? And then the 4th ship in July?

If the Wish left early May for the EBTA, that would probably leave about 6 weeks with only the Treasure in PC until Wish 4 arrived and they started doing preview cruises.

I think they would move the Dream to PC for the summer unless they had the Treasure doing shorter cruises for only that period of time. One full time ship and one part time ship fulfills the PE requirements so they don’t need both the Dream and Destiny in PE.

It’s definitely, DEFINITELY this week. Released on the back of the Destiny float out

Now theres an answer to the Australian itineraries I hope this has been the hold up and the other stuff gets announced this week.

 

[dreamer17555]

I’m feeling really good about the possibility that we get them this week especially on Thursday.

 

[AgentMama]

I'm hopeful for a release this week since they posted the Australia/New Zealand announcement And just because I posted this, we'll be waiting at least another week.

I really hope they add some more international destinations or markets we haven't seen yet. As our family gets older, it's hard to stay on DCL when we're not always seeing new things. Although the DCL price tag is making it even trickier these days.

I hope not. I need to get my On Board Booking in November for the Summer 27 cruises.

Anything is possible, but including summer 207 in the next announcement would be a major change from the last 10 years of Disney Cruise announcements. Other than last year (when Sept-May were released at once), cruises in the first part of the year (January-May) haven’t been announced until September/October just over a year earlier, and summer cruises haven’t been announced until the previous February at the earliest.

 

[dreamer17555]

I agree that there’s no reason to suspect that we’re getting anything beyond May 2027 at the latest with the next release. Signs pointed to two reasons for the delay- pulling out of Australia, and also declining sales and trying to encourage people to book the current offerings. DCL wants people spending their money sooner rather than waiting till later.

I would love to see DCL do more Southern Caribbean itineraries.

However, for 2026/2027 winter season I think they will have one ship do San Diego and the other do Galveston.
The Galveston ship may do a month in San Juan, but that port needs to be improved badly.
San Juan is a good launching point for Southern Caribbean cruises.
