Featured new story experiences from “Haunted Mansion,” “Moana” and “Coco” highlight the Disney Treasure, and are just the beginning of the new delights Disney Imagineers are bringing to the cruise line's ships. Disney Cruise Line has set a course to strengthen its position as a leader in family cruising as it will double its fleet by 2031.
The cruise line will launch two new ships in 2025 that will bring bold new experiences to the high seas, including hero- and villain-themed venues and entertainment, and attractions and stage shows inspired by Marvel superheroes. Along with the new ships, the cruise line will bring new characters to family cruises, including some of the most popular TV and movie characters of 2024.
