Beyond the magic: Why a Disney cruise is the perfect holiday for every generation

01 September 2026

When you think of a Disney cruise, you might expect a holiday designed first and foremost for children. So, when Head Office colleague Steve Hawker booked a cruise on Disney Dream for his three young children, he expected them to have the holiday of a lifetime. What he didn't expect was that the rest of the family would be just as enchanted. Travelling as a group of 13 across three generations, the experience quickly became far more than a children's holiday. From the moment their family was announced on board to the sound of Disney's famous horn fanfare, it was clear this was a cruise designed to bring everyone together, no matter their age.

10 August 2026

When you think of a Caribbean cruise, it's often the ports of call that steal the spotlight. But Norwegian Cruise Line is changing that with its private island, Great Stirrup Cay. Already loved for its white-sand beaches and laid-back Bahamian atmosphere, the island is entering an exciting new chapter with the launch of Great Tides Waterpark in September 2026. Combined with new dining experiences, family attractions, and relaxing adults-only spaces, Great Stirrup Cay is evolving into a destination that's every bit as exciting as the cruise itself. Whether you're travelling as a family, a couple, or with a group of friends, here's why this private island is worth getting excited about.
