Disney Cruise Line has unveiled exciting details about its upcoming cruise ship, Disney Destiny. A keel laying ceremony took place in March at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany marking a significant milestone in the vessel’s construction journey.
What to expect from Disney Destiny
Following in the footsteps of its sister cruise ships, Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, the design of Disney Destiny centers around the theme of “Heroes and Villains,” drawing inspiration from the timeless narratives, characters and attractions synonymous with Disney.
The collaborative efforts of Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney Imagineering were fuelled by the great Disney stories and the interplay between light and dark inherent in every classic Disney tale, shaping the essence of the new ship.
Throughout the floating resort, guests will encounter heroes and villains – including those drawn from beloved Walt Disney Animation Studios classics such as “The Lion King,” “Hercules,” and “One Hundred and One Dalmatians” – within the onboard spaces, experiences and entertainment.
In a nod to tradition, Disney has unveiled captivating filigree artwork adorning the bow of Disney Destiny, depicting Minnie Mouse in a resolute stance, draped in heroic attire, her cape billowing triumphantly in the sea breeze as she leads guests toward their vacation destinies.
