Our last cruise was the Western itinerary and we stopped in Cozumel, Jamaica and Grand Cayman.
She meant begins or ends there.

Really my pondering comes down to the wild card third ship. Why toss in an extra unless they were planning something different/big? I feel like Disney tends to be very conservative but it feels rushed, so why? I can't imagine what they gained from keeping that third ship a secret as long as they did unless they just didn't know when the rumors started swirling and info started leaking. Did they get an offer they couldn't refuse from the shipyard? Its someone else chipping in? If China or another investor is putting up money then they'd be more willing to take a risk on trying a ship there.
Or heck maybe they just reeeeeally like printing money in the Caribbean and there is nothing to see here. Always a possibility too if much less fun. Southerns are pretty much standard fare at this point... maybe they're going to run them all year long.

Oh. Maybe that makes a difference?
I don't know if they can compete in the Asian market without a casino.
As far is the Asian market I don't think Disney's anywhere near ready for that from what I understand the clientele over their likes to gamble which disney has no casinoAnd from what I have read there are several other things that they look for that the Disney ships simply do not have.
I was wondering about which shows they would put on the new ships just the other day. I was thinking Coco, but Moana is a great idea as well.
Three new ships, so we need three new themed shows
Just did post cruise survey (Wonder two weeks ago) and it asked if I would be interested in sailing out of these ports: Boston, Baltimore, Brooklyn, Seattle, Los Angeles, Fort Lauderdale, Southhampton, Venice. This is in addition to current ones. Not sure if this has anything to do with new ships or just collecting general information.
What would be a wonderful option, but I don't think Disney could spare a ship for the length of time it would require -- is if they did a couple of world-type cruises a year! Cruises that last 20 or 30 or 50 or 70 days, etc. Of course, those itineraries on other lines are expensive anyway, but Disney's prices would probably require that you take a second mortgage on your home!
Have they ever had a Peter Pan show? I will add that, Coco and Moana to page one. Coco would be a lot of fun especially if they put a Mexican themed restaurant on board!

No they sail out of Dover. On a lot of other cruise lines they sail out of Southampton, I think it's the more popular port choice?Haven't they sailed out of Southampton already?

Umm, nice thought but Walt's view of EPCOT wasn't anything like what ultimately got built with those three pavilions. Also, picking nits, the Seas did not exist when Epcot first opened.Besides the previously-suggested name of Disney Imagination, here are two more ship names that also pay homage to original pavilions at EPCOT’s Future World:
Disney Horizons and Disney Seas.
That way, all three new ships could honor Walt’s dream of EPCOT.
Good points, but the ideals of the original EPCOT were closer to Walt’s than how it is today, IMHO. And while the sees wasn’t open on opening day, the plot of land for it and plans for it were. Anyway, I’m moving on. Kungaloosh!Umm, nice thought but Walt's view of EPCOT wasn't anything like what ultimately got built with those three pavilions.
