The Disney Destiny will set sail on its maiden voyage on November 20, 2025, departing from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The inaugural four-night cruise will call at both of Disney Cruise Line's private island destinations in The Bahamas — Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. Bookings open to Castaway Club members on September 6, 2024, and to the general public on September 12, 2024.

The Inaugural Season at a Glance

Following the maiden voyage, the Disney Destiny will launch an inaugural season of four- and five-night cruises visiting The Bahamas and the Western Caribbean. Every sailing includes at least one day at either Disney Castaway Cay or Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, and some itineraries feature both private island stops. Select voyages will also add warm-weather calls in Nassau, Bahamas, or Cozumel, Mexico.

First Look: Cask and Cannon Pub

One of the most anticipated new venues aboard the Disney Destiny is Cask and Cannon, a pub inspired by Disney Parks' beloved Pirates of the Caribbean attractions. The eclectic lounge will be decorated with treasures evoking the storied history of pirate voyages around the globe, creating a cozy atmosphere for guests to gather after a day at sea.

The bar program at Cask and Cannon centers on an extensive selection of rare, specialty, and vintage rums alongside a lineup of craft brews developed exclusively for the venue and served straight from the barrel. Guests seeking a truly memorable experience may discover a special menu of drinks served from an actual treasure chest.

A Fleet of New Experiences

Cask and Cannon is one of many new venues debuting aboard the heroes-and-villains-themed ship. The Disney Destiny will also introduce:

• Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King — a first-of-its-kind dining experience celebrating the music of Walt Disney Animation Studios' The Lion King
• Disney Hercules — an all-new Broadway-style stage show retelling the classic Disney Animation film
• De Vil's — a wickedly chic piano lounge celebrating Cruella de Vil
• Edna Á La Mode Sweets — a one-of-a-kind confectionary inspired by Pixar's The Incredibles
• The Sanctum — Disney Cruise Line's first lounge inspired by Marvel's Doctor Strange
• Hero-worthy staterooms and suites with custom Disney story artwork, a new villain-packed storyline for the AquaMouse water attraction, and tributes to Marvel Super Heroes including Black Panther, Spider-Man, and Iron Man
