Disney Destiny is the upcoming eighth cruise ship owned and operated by Disney Cruise Line, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company.
Background[]
The Disney Destiny is scheduled for delivery in November 20, 2025 as part of a multi-year expansion of the Disney Cruise Line fleet that includes the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, the Disney Adventure that will homeport in Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Florida United States, and the new island destination in The Bahamas, Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. The design theme of the Disney Destiny, sister to the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, will be "Heroes and Villains", drawing on the legacy of beloved Disney stories, characters and theme park attractions, to forge a cruise vacation that will empower guests to embrace their own calling aboard every unforgettable voyage. The Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney Imagineering teams were inspired by the dynamic duality of every great Disney story, where opposing forces of light and dark drive characters to rise to their purpose, when developing the Disney Destiny.
Onboard, guests will encounter heroes and villains alike—including those from beloved Disney stories, like The Lion King, Hercules, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians—within the spaces, experiences and entertainment throughout their voyage. To embody and embolden the theme, Disney also unveiled brand-new filigree artwork for the bow of the Disney Destiny, continuing a beloved Disney Cruise Line design tradition. The illustration depicts Minnie Mouse striking a valiant pose in a heroic ensemble, her cape waving majestically in the sea breeze as she boldly leads guests toward their vacation destinies.

The design details from the original plans remain largely the same. The ship will be 342 meters (1,122 ft 1 in) long, with a beam of 46.4 meters (152 ft 3 in) and a draft of 9.5 meters (31 ft 2 in). It will be powered by green methanol and is expected to have a capacity of around 6,000 passengers, with a crew of approximately 2,300. Disney has not yet released details on the specific features and amenities the ship will offer.
