In early-March 2016, Walt Disney announced plans to build three new liners (the company's largest) and in July 2017 signed a 3-unit shipbuilding agreement with Meyer Werft Gmbh (Germany). Triton-Class vessel's interior design, facilities and cruise itineraries are still a well-protected secret. What is known so far is that they will be LNG-powered (by liquefied natural gas), gross tonnage 144,000 GT tons (larger than the originally announced 135,000 GT) and passenger capacity 2500 (1250 staterooms).
Oceania Cruises’ Vista
The exterior of the ship retains that same modern classic design, and you'll still have access to beloved Disney characters, Broadway-caliber shows and entertainment on board. The creation of Disney Wish embodies this forward progress by charting its own path with a new style for staterooms, all-new restaurants, a different layout, additional pools, new ways to unlock "hidden magic" and more. Those who participate in the Uncharted Adventure game will have the ability to unlock a hidden layer of magic all around the ship. This will all conclude with a big finale on the last night of your cruise when you help battle the evilest witch in the sea in an epic live event. Additionally, the ship offers "Disney's Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular" on one night of every cruise.
Here’s our review of Palo Steakhouse!
Each cabin has as standard amenities 2 mirrored vanities with chairs, 22-inch smart HDTV (satellite reception, infotainment system), iPod docking station, 2 rechargeable "Wave Phones" (for shipwide use). Marceline Market is one of the casual dining options on the Wish and is inspired by the town where Walt Disney grew up. This food hall allows guests to enjoy walk-up dining at any (or all!) of the 10 unique food stalls. Each stall is themed to a Disney animated story — Alice in Wonderland and Zootopia being just two examples — and offers a wide variety of freshly prepared cuisines. Guests can choose from American classics, international specialties, comfort foods, seafood, soups and salads, vegetarian and plant-based eats, baked goods, and desserts, all served buffet-style.
Premium Investing Services
Adults will delight in the fine dining offered at Palo -- the ship's superb steakhouse -- and the French-themed Enchante by Chef Arnaud Lallement. This is also a distinction limited to full-length features from Walt Disney Animation. It doesn't include Disney Pixar releases like last year's Elemental, which attracted double the audience of Wish in its first five days on the premium streaming platform. Founded in 1993, The Motley Fool is a financial services company dedicated to making the world smarter, happier, and richer.
Lots of (really good) pools
While the kids are at the variety of clubs designed for them, adults can take advantage of spaces for the 18-and-older crowd. In fact, that's one reason why I love Disney cruises so much — the kids want to do the kids activities, which means adults get to enjoy amenities designed for us, too. For those willing to spend a little extra (and lucky enough to snag a reservation), the adults-only restaurants on Wish shouldn't be missed. In a recent announcement, the CDC said cruise companies can restart operations only by following rules laid out by the agency. Disney executives declined to address larger issues going on in the cruise industry, such as when the Centers for Disease Control will allow cruise ships to sail out of U.S. ports again. The Disney Cruise Line held a grand reveal Thursday morning to lay out more details on the Disney Wish, the company’s fifth cruise ship, which will set out from Port Canaveral for the Bahamas starting June 9, 2022.

Disney Wish: 9 things to know about Disney's newest ship
Since 1998, Disney has embraced many of the same skills it uses while making its captivating movies to create a real-life setting on its first four ships that transports guests to a world where almost anything feels possible. A substantially larger chunk of the country has now been exposed to the film that Disney hoped would be a successful celebration of the studio's 100-year operating history. After all, it's not 13.2 million people that have now streamed the film since its April 3 launch on Disney+. Many of these screenings are taking place in homes or portable screens playing for more than a single viewer. Wish has been streamed 13.2 million times in its first five days on the platform. The film disappointed investors and exhibitors alike when it generated just $64 million in box office receipts from stateside audiences.
Set sail on the Disney Wish
Whereas the other ships had a gauntlet of crew members clapping and cheering, there was only one crew member on the Wish's welcoming committee and little fanfare. Starting in July 2022, Disney Wish itinerary program is based on roundtrips to the Eastern and Western Caribbean departing from homeport Port Canaveral (Orlando City) Florida. A signature port destination included in all itineraries is DCL's private island in the Bahamas Castaway Cay.
Like on all Disney ships, passenger staterooms by sizes are ranked among the industry's largest standard cabins, designed to easily accommodate four people. Cabins are with ample storage space, lounge/living area and split bathrooms (1 room with shower-bathtub-sink-WC, and separate toilet-sink). Beds on are raised to allow underbed storage for 2 medium-sized suitcases.
Some Disney purists may cringe at a pair of animated sequels out of Disney this year, but audiences tend to flock to a proven franchise. Wish was a box office bomb, but just two other Walt Disney Animation releases on Disney+, Encanto and Frozen 2, have attracted a larger audience on the service in its first five days of availability. While Caudill says these changes won’t stop her from going to Disney, she says she will probably spend less time in the parks and go on fewer rides. "I feel like it’s still a little unclear why Disney changed the DAS pass," Caudill says. "People are speculating that too many people are lying to use the service," she adds.
Bookings typically require 20% down, with the full amount due closer to sailing. TPG has an array of tips to save money on a Disney Cruise that you can use to keep costs under control. This game continues the Disney tradition of using technology to unlock new ways to tell stories. The technology may be complex, but what shines front and center is the story and the magic it creates. Don't forget to pack your eye patches and bandanas, as pirate nights are a go with a "Pirate's Rockin' Parlay Party." And yes, there are pretty substantial fireworks out on deck that night.
All the other Disney ships have a bar-and-lounge district that's off-limits to anyone under 18 after 7 p.m. Because of this, I had to spend time discovering where things were located instead of immediately knowing my way around. But it actually ended up being part of the fun and not a negative experience. The christening ceremony was held on June 30th (pierside at Port Canaveral Terminal) and attended by Bob Chapek (The Walt Disney Company's CEO) and Josh D'Amaro (Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products).
If you want the best of the best, go for the almost 2,000-square-foot Wish Tower Suite, which is set in the forward funnel of the ship. I'll happily admit to being a sucker for a suite at sea and Disney concierge service amenities, but all of the cabins on Wish are a big step up for Disney Cruise Line. I will keep the pricing in as a historical reminder of what the last known prices were for that sailing, but most show unavailable as they were sold out before they sailed.
Concierge Suites and Concierge Family Cabins offer direct access to the ship's concierge-served facilities (1 small lounge, private sundeck area with chairs, free food and drinks). Most 1-Bedroom Suites are with connecting doors, Queen bed (convertible to twins), sitting/lounge area with double sofabed, 1 pull-down bed (in the living room), walk-in closet, 2 bathrooms (one with a whirlpool hot-tub). Multiple themed spaces bursting with Disney storytelling and packed with fun-filled activities hosted by specially trained counsellors await children inside Disney's Oceaneer Club aboard the Disney Wish. AquaMouse - The adventures of Mickey and friends will be brought to life like never before on AquaMouse - the first-ever Disney attraction at sea.
Anika Noni Rose (voice actor for the character Tiana in "The Princess and the Frog"/2009 animated musical film) performed live singing along with characters from the movies Toy Story, Frozen, Marvel, Star Wars. Also new for the DCL fleet are the "quick food" bars "Marceline Market" and "Mickey and Friends Festival of Foods". The "Wish Tower Suite" is the DCL's (and the industry's) first-of-its-kind loft suite located in the ship's forward funnel (smokestack). DCL's shipboard gratuities are now USD 14.50 per person per day (US$15.50 per Suite guest daily).
The new guidelines mean people with other disabilities' eligibility for DAS will be determined on a case by case basis by Disney's accessibility team. According to Disney's website, DAS passes will now only be available to "guests who, due to a developmental disability like autism or similar, are unable to wait in a conventional queue for an extended period of time." Caudill, a 26-year-old content creator and accessibility advocate, was born with a rare eye disorder called achromatopsia. According to the Cleveland Clinic, this condition limits people's ability to see color vision and also causes other vision issues, such as rapid eye movements. The new ship will run on liquefied natural gas, a more environmentally friendly system.
There are dishes that take inspiration from “African Wakanda, Eastern European Sokovia” and even New York. Personal Navigators, and other details from the 4-Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral. The Disney Wish set sail from Port Canaveral, Florida on January 30, 2023. There are additional Personal Navigators from other sailings of this same itinerary for comparison. Explore Parliament Square, the government center that dates back to the early 1800s or check out the port's vibrant night life, including more casinos, theatres, and fabulous cuisine than you could possibly fit into a short stay.
