“Disney Cruise Line is proud to be a leader in family cruising, helping our guests create lasting memories in even more destinations,” said Tracy Wilson, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Cruise Line Operations. Wilson added that the line is pleased to return to favorite ports while introducing new destinations in Panama and expanding its Caribbean routes.

Following its inaugural European season, the Disney Wish will dock in New York in late September 2027 for seven voyages. The itineraries include four- to seven-night sailings to Bermuda, as well as New England and Canadian ports, including Boston, Massachusetts; St. John, New Brunswick; and Halifax, Nova Scotia.

The upcoming season will also feature initial transit stops through the Panama Canal on the Disney Magic. A November 2027 voyage from San Diego to Galveston, Texas, will make a maiden call in Fuerte Amador, Panama. A return westbound voyage in March 2028 will make an inaugural stop in Colon, Panama.
