Where will the Fantasy go once the Treasure comes online

My assumption is that the Treasure will replace the Fantasy in PC and do the 7-night East/West Carribean. Where do we expect the Fantasy to go when that happens?
 
Who knows? They could always keep her in PC and on a 5/5/4 schedule. Disney is increasing its presence in Fort Lauderdale so that is a likely option. Perhaps also spending the summer in New York? I think Disney has flexibility with what they want to do with the Fantasy.
 
Summer: Two boats at PC, one at PE, one in Vancouver, one in Europe, one in New York.

Winter: Two boats at PC, one at PE, one in San Diego, one in Australia, one split between Galveston, New Orleans, and Puerto Rico.

I'm pretty sure they're going to put three ships at Port Canaveral. Not going to place bets on which three, but I'm expecting three PC ships.

If they’re not there the whole year, I think there will be three ships sailing out of PC for most of the year. The contract that they made with the port which allowed for expanding terminal 8 and using terminal 10 requires them to sail more than 200 times each year from PC. Unless they are only sailing three and four night cruises from PC, they’re going to need a third ship.

Let's hope this is the plan. That will leave one ship people actually like at PC. :)
 
I think the agreement with Port Everglades requires them to have one ship there all year round and a second ship part of the year starting 2025. so most likely after third new ship comes on line. Fantasy could be there for some time as well.
 
Purely a guess but I could see them taking Fantasy out of PC and making her year round in Port Everglades since PE has to have a year round ship. Magic could then return to Port Canaveral for a reunion of sorts for part of the year, while also doing New York and Galveston. Dream will split between PE and Europe. Wonder will do whatever Disney wants to do out West. Wish and Treasure will do classic 3, 4, and 7 sailings from PC.
 
Is there a reason that people are assuming that there will not be a ship in Miami? There has not been an announcement
 
Because there will be a dedicated Disney terminal in Port Everglades. There’s not one in Miami.
I was going to post the same thing. All the money going into a mickey themed renovated terminal plus Disney signed a 15 year contract with PE, makes me think this will replace Miami cruises. I’ve never sailed out of PE but hope to give it a try.

Thank God, Miami is horrible…

Plus I live in SW Florida, so having the “classic ships” in PE is a real bonus for me! (Not my wallet though)
 
I know with Wish someone had a post showing the construction progress in Germany. Any thing like that for Treasure? I have not seen much about it and while they originally said summer 2024, I hear now late 2024 (maybe early 25) but was just curious if that is based on construction progress or other information? Thanks!

There have definitely been a couple of posts of the various parts of the Treasure delivering. I'm sure its searchable. I think the last photo I saw might have been the funnel?

They never said Summer only 2024...

The Disney Treasure is scheduled for delivery in 2024. Following the Disney Wish, which set sail in July, it’s the second of three new ships planned through 2025. The Wish class ships are powered by liquefied natural gas and feature 1,254 guest staterooms.

Here is some info for the DCL agreement with Port Everglades (Broward County) from Nov 2021. (Source: Scott Sanders, Disneycruiselineblog.

Disney Cruise Line Finalizes 15-year Terminal and Berthing Agreement with Broward County’s Port Everglades​

“According to the agreement, Disney plans to conduct multi-day cruise passenger services from Port Everglades as early as October 2023. The agreement provides Disney with exclusive (7-days a week, year round) use of Cruise Terminal 4 and Berth No. 4. Beginning March 1, 2025, a second passenger cruise ship berth and its adjoining cruise passenger terminal facilities shall be assigned by the Port Everglades Department to Disney Cruise Line for 3- and 4-night itineraries operating on a Monday/Friday rotation. The second berth/terminal will be determined based on the schedule availability based on the port’s other preferential agreements with other cruise lines.

Stemming from prior commission meetings, Disney Cruise Line was planning to homeport a vessel year round vessel sailing 5/5/4-night cruises with future additional seasonal ship deployments. The language in the agreement references the Magic Class (Disney Magic and Disney Wonder) and Dream Class (Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy) with a generalization to each class based on specifications equivalent to those vessels. That being said, there is language to include the three new vessel on order beginning with the Disney Wish under the Dream Class grouping as the new ships are similar in size and passenger/crew capacity.” (There’s more info in the article.)

So they get a Terminal for their exclusive use? (The article went on to show estimated improvement costs of $2M for the berth and $12M for the Terminal.). I’m reading this as improvements to existing infrastructure, not a new build.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised - when it was just Magic & Wonder out of PC, did they share the Terminal when they didn’t have ships in port?

This should be better than using a shared Terminal with no permanent Disney theming, as in Miami.
This makes me think that the Magic and Dream will share PE until 2025.
