Disney Cruise Line is set to unleash the darker side of Disney magic with the introduction of its latest ship, the Disney Destiny. This heroes and villains-inspired vessel promises to deliver a uniquely thrilling experience, immersing guests in the world of Disney's most notorious characters.
The Disney Destiny is the latest addition to Disney Cruise Line's growing fleet. It embraces the age-old battle between good and evil that lies at the heart of every great Disney tale. From legendary Disney villains to antiheroes and mischievous characters, the ship will bring to life a dynamic duality that will captivate guests of all ages.
A Thematic Experience Like No Other
Disney, Pixar, and Marvel characters will be the inspiration behind the ship’s themed venues and entertainment. The ship will feature brand-new lounges that celebrate Disney's rich storytelling tradition, with a special focus on the more wicked and rebellious characters.
Among the highlights is De Vil’s, a piano lounge inspired by the iconic villain Cruella de Vil from One Hundred and One Dalmatians. With its Hollywood Regency-inspired décor and a color palette dominated by red, black, and white, the adult-exclusive lounge will offer a sophisticated ambiance. Guests can expect to unwind with trendy martinis and glamorous wines, all while enjoying live piano performances.
Another standout venue is Cask and Cannon, a pirate-themed pub inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean. This cozy watering hole will be a haven for buccaneers, offering a wide range of rare and specialty rums, as well as custom brews served straight from the barrel. Guests can regale each other with tales of adventure while cheering on their favorite teams during live televised sporting events.
New Adventures Await
For thrill-seekers, the Disney Destiny will introduce a new storyline to the AquaMouse water ride, Disney Cruise Line’s signature attraction at sea. The new show, titled "Sing a Silly Song," will follow Mickey and Minnie as they navigate Villain Mountain. Featuring music by Emmy award-winning composer Christopher Willis and lyricist Elyse Willis, the ride will offer a mix of thrills and laughter as iconic Disney villains find themselves in hilariously unexpected situations.
Additionally, guests can look forward to meeting an array of formidable Disney villains throughout the ship. From Maleficent and Captain Hook to Loki and Captain Jack Sparrow, these characters will come to life in shows, meet-and-greets, and interactive events designed to engage guests in new and exciting ways.
A Haunted Experience at Sea
Adding to the eerie excitement, the Disney Destiny will debut the Haunted Mansion Parlor, a cocktail lounge inspired by the classic Disney Parks attraction. This venue will offer a first-class drawing room experience with a spooky twist, blending the nostalgia of the 1969 attraction with a new nautical storyline exclusive to the cruise line. Guests will enjoy ghostly cocktails and can shop for exclusive haunted homewares, all while being immersed in the next chapter of Haunted Mansion lore.
A Bold New Direction for Disney Cruise Line
The Disney Destiny, at approximately 144,000 gross tons and powered by liquefied natural gas, represents a bold new direction for Disney Cruise Line. This latest vessel is part of a multi-year expansion that includes the recently launched Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, as well as the upcoming Disney Adventure, which will homeport in Singapore. With its immersive storytelling and unique blend of dark and light themes, Disney Destiny is set to revolutionize the cruise industry.
Whether you're a fan of Disney heroes or have a penchant for the darker side, the Disney Destiny promises to be an unforgettable journey where fantasy and adventure await at every turn.
