Disney Cruise Line has announced that Disney Wish will be the name of the cruise line’s fifth cruise ship when the vessel debuts in 2022.
“There couldn’t be a better name for our incredible new ship because making wishes come true is part of the Disney DNA and is at the heart of so many of our cherished stories,”Bob Chapek, Disney Parks, Experiences and Products Chairman.
The first in a class of new cruise ships from Disney Cruise Line, Disney Wish will be delivered from the shipyard in late 2021 and begin sailing cruises in January 2022. The ship will homeport in Port Canaveral and come in at 140,000 gross tons in size.
The Disney character on the stern will be Rapunzel. Disney Wish will embody the elegance and romance of the golden age of ocean cruising with unique touches all her own, keeping with the distinct Disney Cruise Line style. The ship will offer more innovation, new technologies, spectacular entertainment and more Disney stories and characters than ever before.
The Disney Wish is part a new three-ship class that will be powered by liquefied natural gas and, at approximately 144,000 gross tons and 1,250 guest staterooms, will be slightly larger than the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy.
