Disney Cruise Line Announces Important Update For Bermuda Sailings
Sailing with Disney Cruise Line to Bermuda in September or October? Then you’ll want to keep reading! Today, Disney Cruise Line is sending emails to Guests with updates to Disney Cruise Line’s Health and Safety Protocols (you can read more about those here). However, Guests booked on sailings to Bermuda will receive additional communication regarding requirements for their cruises, as required by the Government of Bermuda.

The email for the Disney Magic Transatlantic sailing on September 18 will read as follows:
Dear [Guest Name],
All of us at Disney Cruise Line look forward to welcoming you aboard the Disney Magic. We are reaching out with important information on the Bermuda Travel Authorization required for your upcoming sailing.
The Bermuda government requires all cruise ship passengers 2 years of age and older have an approved Bermuda Travel Authorization before arriving at the cruise embarkation terminal. The cost of the travel authorization application fee is $40.00 per person. All passengers 12 years of age and older must be fully vaccinated, and are required to upload their proof of vaccination at time of application. Children, ages 11 and younger, who are not fully vaccinated are welcome to enter Bermuda with a fully vaccinated parent or guardian.
In addition to obtaining an approved Travel Authorization and providing proof of vaccination, the Government of Bermuda requires all Guests on the transatlantic sailing from Dover to New York, including Guests who have identified as 90-day-recovered, complete an antigen test onboard the ship no more than two days prior to arrival in Bermuda. Guests who do not participate in this testing will be unable to debark the ship in Bermuda. Further details about this testing will be shared onboard.
Please visit the Government of Bermuda website for information and instructions on how to submit your travel authorization application and COVID-19 vaccination and testing requirements. Once approved, the Quarantine Authority in Bermuda will email your approved Travel Authorization. All Guests must have an electronic or paper copy of the Travel Authorization to show at embarkation.
While Bermuda’s entry requirements are independent of Disney Cruise Line’s COVID-19 vaccination and testing requirements previously communicated for your sailing, test results submitted to Disney Cruise Line satisfy Bermuda’s testing requirements.
Disney Cruise Line’s vaccination and testing requirements can be found in the Know Before You Go section of our website at DisneyCruise.com.
Again, we look forward to your arrival and appreciate you taking the required steps necessary to sail with us.
Sincerely,
The Cast & Crew
