The Disney Wish Is Coming to New York in Fall 2027
The headline of the new release is the return of Disney Cruise Line to New York City. After completing her inaugural European season, the Disney Wish will arrive in New York in late September 2027 for only seven special voyages.
The four- to seven-night Disney Wish cruises from New York will visit Bermuda, Canada and New England. Five of the seven sailings include Bermuda, and three feature an extended visit that gives guests additional time to experience the island’s pink-sand beaches, culture and scenery.
Disney Cruise Line will also return to Canada’s Atlantic coast and New England for the first time in nearly four years. These fall sailings combine charming coastal destinations with seasonal scenery and select Halloween on the High Seas celebrations aboard the Disney Wish.
Disney Wish New York Sailing Dates
- September 29, 2027: 4-Night Bermuda Cruise
- October 3, 2027: 5-Night Canada & New England Halloween on the High Seas Cruise
- October 8, 2027: 6-Night Bermuda & Canada Halloween on the High Seas Cruise
- October 14, 2027: 5-Night Bermuda Halloween on the High Seas Cruise
- October 19, 2027: 5-Night Bermuda Halloween on the High Seas Cruise
- October 24, 2027: 7-Night Canada Halloween on the High Seas Cruise
- October 31, 2027: 5-Night Bermuda Halloween on the High Seas Cruise from New York to San Juan
Because there are only seven Disney Wish sailings from New York, families interested in these cruises should be prepared before their eligible booking date. The two-day Bermuda itineraries, Halloween sailings, and popular stateroom categories may receive especially strong interest.
More Disney Cruises From San Juan
Disney Cruise Line will offer more opportunities to sail from San Juan, Puerto Rico, aboard the Disney Wish and Disney Fantasy in Fall 2027 and Spring 2028.
The five- to seven-night Southern and Eastern Caribbean itineraries will visit tropical destinations throughout the region. Depending on the sailing, ports may include Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, St. Maarten, St. Thomas, St. Lucia, Dominica, Antigua and Barbados.
Select repositioning cruises will also allow guests to begin in San Juan and finish in Florida—or depart from Florida and conclude their vacation in San Juan. These one-way itineraries can be a great choice for travelers who want a more distinctive cruise experience or additional time in Puerto Rico before or after sailing.
Two Disney Magic Panama Canal Cruises
The Disney Magic will sail two 14-night repositioning cruises through the Panama Canal during the newly released seasons.
Each voyage will include a maiden port of call for Disney Cruise Line:
- The eastbound Panama Canal cruise will stop at Fuerte Amador, the gateway to Panama City.
- The westbound Panama Canal cruise will visit Colón, located on the Caribbean side of the canal.
Repositioning cruises offer more days aboard the ship, giving guests additional time to experience Disney entertainment, rotational dining, adult-exclusive spaces and family activities while also visiting destinations that are not included on typical three- to seven-night itineraries.
The Disney Destiny Will Home Port in Port Canaveral
For the first time, the Disney Destiny will homeport in Port Canaveral beginning in Fall 2027.
The Disney Destiny will open the season in Fort Lauderdale with three- to five-night cruises to The Bahamas and Western Caribbean. The ship will then move to Port Canaveral for three- to seven-night Bahamian and Western Caribbean itineraries.
Inspired by legendary Disney heroes and villains, the Disney Destiny features themed dining and entertainment designed around the contrast between light and dark, courage and determination.
More Disney Cruise Line Sailings From Florida
Florida remains at the center of the Disney Cruise Line schedule, with multiple ships sailing from Port Canaveral and Fort Lauderdale.
Disney Wish
After completing her New York and San Juan itineraries, the Disney Wish will return to Port Canaveral for three- and four-night Bahamian cruises. These sailings include visits to Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point on select itineraries.
Disney Treasure
The Disney Treasure will continue offering seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral. The schedule also includes two special voyages:
- An eight-night Eastern Caribbean cruise
- A six-night Bahamian cruise featuring two visits to Disney Castaway Cay
That double-Castaway Cay sailing may be especially appealing to families who want more beach time at Disney’s original private island destination.
Disney Dream
The Disney Dream will sail three- and four-night Bahamian cruises from Port Canaveral before repositioning to Fort Lauderdale in November 2027.
From Fort Lauderdale, the ship will offer three- to five-night Bahamian itineraries, along with a special six-night cruise featuring two visits to Disney Castaway Cay.
Disney Fantasy
The Disney Fantasy will sail from Port Canaveral between September and November 2027 on four- and five-night cruises to The Bahamas and Western Caribbean.
The ship will then offer four- to seven-night sailings from Fort Lauderdale to The Bahamas and Eastern Caribbean. The new schedule also includes the Disney Fantasy’s first Bermuda cruise from Fort Lauderdale—an eight-night itinerary that visits Bermuda, Disney Castaway Cay and Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
Disney Cruises From San Diego and Galveston
Disney Cruise Line will begin the Fall 2027 season with two ships sailing from San Diego. Both the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder will offer three- to seven-night Baja and Mexican Riviera itineraries through early November.
Depending on the cruise, destinations may include Ensenada, Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán and Catalina Island. The Disney Wonder will continue sailing from San Diego throughout the Fall 2027 and Spring 2028 seasons.
After completing her eastbound Panama Canal cruise, the Disney Magic will return to Galveston, Texas, for four- to seven-night sailings.
Select seven-night Bahamian cruises from Galveston will include both Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point and Disney Castaway Cay, giving guests the opportunity to experience Disney’s two Bahamian island destinations during one vacation.
Disney Adventure Sailings From Singapore
The Disney Adventure will continue sailing from Singapore with new three- and four-night itineraries from September through December 2027.
The ship brings Disney storytelling, Broadway-style entertainment, imaginative dining and family experiences to Southeast Asia.
Separately, select Disney Adventure sailings from December 31, 2026, through May 2027 will feature a new port of call: Langkawi, Malaysia. Guests will have the opportunity to explore the island’s rainforests, coastline, and natural scenery while also enjoying the attractions aboard the ship.
Halloween on the High Seas and Very Merrytime Cruises Return
Disney Cruise Line’s seasonal celebrations will return across select ships in Fall 2027.
Halloween on the High Seas cruises will begin in September 2027. Guests can expect spooky décor, special entertainment, deck parties, trick-or-treating at sea and Disney characters wearing their Halloween costumes.
Very Merrytime cruises will return in November and December 2027. The ships will be decorated for the holidays with special entertainment, seasonal treats, tree-lighting celebrations, deck parties and visits from Santa Claus.
Holiday cruises can be especially popular with families tied to school calendars, so travelers interested in specific dates or stateroom categories should begin planning early.

Should You Book a Disney Cruise as Soon as It Opens?
Booking early can be valuable when you want a limited itinerary, a specific stateroom category, or a preferred location aboard the ship. Disney Cruise Line pricing is dynamic and may change as availability decreases, though no specific price or increase is guaranteed.
The seven Disney Wish cruises from New York, Panama Canal voyages, holiday sailings, and cruises featuring two visits to Disney Castaway Cay are among the itineraries likely to attract attention.
Before booking day, it helps to decide:
- Your preferred sailing dates and at least one backup option
- The number of adults and children traveling
- The ages of children at the time of sailing
- Your preferred stateroom category and approximate budget
- Whether you need connecting or accessible accommodations
- Your Castaway Club level, if applicable
