New DCL Ship

[DisneyCruiseluvr]

Hi,

Does anyone have any links they can share to news from Disney on plans for a new ship? I know this is mostly rumored, but I thought I saw a Disney announcement posted a while back on this discussion board.

Thanks!

Good job w/graphics Werner!

Did you use Adobe Illustrator to create that picture of "Disney Fantasia"?

There was an article in Forbes that I quoted here:

No... I snapped that picture from the balcony of our hotel suite on the shores of the Adriatic Sea.

Oh, alright... I used Adobe Photoshop 7.0 running under Mac OS X 10.2.2. Photoshop is an amazing program.

It's been pretty well established that DCL has invested a lot of effort in planning and design work over at least the past two years. It's much less certain that the folks in Burbank have actually agreed to write a check for $350-500 million for another ship. And there absolutely hasn't been any announcement of a contract with a shipyard, either from DCL or from a shipyard. When there is such an contract, it won't be a secret.
