Disney Cruise Line will return to New York City in fall 2027 for the first time since 2023, with Disney Wish scheduled to operate seven special voyages from the city as part of the cruise line’s newly announced fall 2027 and spring 2028 itineraries.

Disney Wish will arrive in New York in late September following its inaugural season in Europe, offering four- to seven-night cruises, including five sailings to Bermuda.

The return to New York also marks Disney Cruise Line’s first sailings to New England and Canada’s Atlantic coast in nearly four years. During autumn voyages, Disney Wish will call at Boston; St. John, New Brunswick; and Halifax, Nova Scotia.

From New York, Disney Wish will also operate a five-night sailing to San Juan, Puerto Rico, with a stop in Bermuda before beginning a series of Caribbean itineraries from Puerto Rico.

Disney Cruise Line will expand its San Juan offerings during the 2027-28 season. In December 2027, Disney Fantasy will offer a seven-night Southern Caribbean sailing from Puerto Rico, followed by a five-night Eastern Caribbean cruise ending in Fort Lauderdale. The ship will return to San Juan in late April and May 2028 for two seven-night Southern Caribbean cruises with calls including Curaçao, Bonaire, Barbados and Antigua.

The cruise line will also introduce new ports on two Panama Canal repositioning cruises aboard Disney Magic. In November 2027, the ship will sail 14 nights from San Diego to Galveston, Texas, with a maiden call at Fuerte Amador, Panama City. In March 2028, Disney Magic will make a 14-night westbound voyage from Galveston to San Diego, including a maiden call at Colón, Panama.

The line’s expanding fleet will also increase the number of ships sailing from Florida. Beginning in November 2027, three Wish Class ships will be based in Port Canaveral, offering three- to seven-night cruises to the Bahamas and Western Caribbean.

Disney Destiny will move to Port Canaveral after beginning the fall season in Fort Lauderdale. Disney Wish will relocate to Port Canaveral following its New York and San Juan itineraries, offering three- and four-night Bahamian cruises with visits to Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

Disney Treasure will continue seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral, while Disney Dream will operate short Bahamas cruises before moving to Fort Lauderdale in November 2027. Disney Fantasy will sail from Port Canaveral from September through November 2027 before repositioning to San Juan and then Fort Lauderdale.

Elsewhere in the United States, Disney Magic and Disney Wonder will begin the fall 2027 season in San Diego with three- to seven-night Baja and Mexican Riviera cruises. Disney Wonder will remain in San Diego through the season, while Disney Magic will cross the Panama Canal and then operate four- to seven-night cruises from Galveston.

Disney Adventure will continue sailing from Singapore with new three- and four-night itineraries from September through December 2027. Select sailings beginning December 31, 2026, will also add Langkawi, Malaysia, as a new port of call.

Seasonal sailings will return as well, with Halloween on the High Seas cruises beginning in September 2027 and Very Merrytime cruises operating in November and December.

Early booking for select Disney Cruise Line Castaway Club members begins August 31, while general bookings open September 8.

“Disney Cruise Line is proud to be a leader in family cruising, helping our guests create lasting memories in even more destinations,” says Tracy Wilson, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Cruise Line Operations. “We are delighted to return to a guest-favorite port in New York, introduce maiden calls in Panama and continue visiting destinations throughout the Caribbean and beyond with our growing fleet.”
