Disney Cruise Line 2024 season launch

28 March 2023

Here’s something that’s sure to make you smile. For the 2024 summer school holidays, Disney Cruise Line is launching more of your favourite European sailings – and some new ones, too. All departing from and returning to Southampton, and all on board the Disney Dream. This means you can set sail on a magical adventure direct from the UK to France, Spain or Belgium.

We know lots of you loved the four-night sailings to La Rochelle and Bilbao, so Disney Cruise Line have brought them back and an additional four-night cruise to La Coruna. On top of this, they are introducing a three-night cruise to Bruges and a five-night cruise to Vigo and La Coruna. Both of these three and five-night sailings are one-offs, so we recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

With more UK sailings, you have more opportunities to experience the magic of Disney at sea on board the Disney Dream. Catch the dazzling Beauty and the Beast musical, woosh down the first-of-its-kind AquaDuck water coaster, dive into immersive dining alongside Crush and friends and enjoy the swashbuckling Pirate Night Deck Party. Little ones can also fly the Millennium Falcon, hang with the Toy Story gang or meet Tinker Bell in Disney’s Oceaneer Club while the adults take things a little slower in the Quiet Cove Pool. What’s more, all of this and more is included in the price you pay before you sail away.

These new sailings are in addition to the culture-rich, sun-soaked Mediterranean getaways and a Frozen-inspired voyage in the Norwegian fjords, so there’s a European cruise for everyone in 2024. Then again, if your dream is to escape to somewhere tropical, you can make this dream come true with one of the Bahamian or Caribbean cruises which feature a stop at Disney Cruise Lines’ all-new island destination, Lighthouse Point. A seven-night inaugural sailing aboard Disney Fantasy will be departing from Port Canaveral, Florida, on June 8^th 2024 giving you the opportunity to be amongst the first to make a splash in the crystal-clear waters of this new destination.

Whether you dream of a three, four or five-night European break or something a little, or a lot, longer, look forward to sailing away on a Disney adventure you’ll never ever forget, Where Magic Meets the Sea.
