Disney Cruise Line to Sail Southeast Asia Starting in 2025
Disney Cruise Line surprised us all when they confirmed the purchase of Dream Cruises’ Global Dream cruise ship late last year. The Global Dream was already being built for the Asian cruise line, Dream Cruises, when the company went bankrupt and was forced the sail the vessel that was nearing completion.
When the announcement was made that Disney Cruise Line be taking over the completion of the Global Dream, it was thought that the oceanliner would sail Southeast Asia as it was originally designed to do by Dream Cruises. Today, we can confirm the that yet-to-be-named ship by Disney Cruise Line will indeed start sailing from Singapore for cruises around Southeast Asia starting in 2025!
Per an agreement with the Singapore Tourism Board, the new Disney Cruise Line vessel will sail from Singapore for at least five years. More details about the maiden voyage, itineraries, and ports of call will be made at a later date.
Billed as the “World’s Largest Cruise Ship” when being built by Dream Cruises, Disney Cruise Line has said that once complete, the ship will welcome a whopping 6,000 guests as well as an additional 2,300 as crew making it the largest ship in the fleet by far.
“This is a very exciting year for The Walt Disney Company — 2023 marks our 100th anniversary,” D’Amaro said. “As part of this, Disney Cruise Line is currently undergoing an ambitious expansion with new ships and new destinations around the world. We are incredibly excited to make Singapore the home port to our seventh-launched ship, which will sail from here year-round starting in 2025.”
While there is still so much unknown about this new Disney Cruise Line cruise ship that will sail Southeast Asia, Disney Cruise Line did have this to say:
The new ship will feature innovative Disney experiences along with the dazzling entertainment, world-class dining and legendary guest service that set Disney Cruise Line apart. Guests of all ages will find dedicated spaces and activities designed just for them, and families will create unforgettable memories with beloved characters such as Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse, Disney Princesses, Marvel Super Heroes and more.
But, before this new ship starts sailing Southeast Asia, another new Disney Cruise Line ship will start sailing in 2024! The Disney Treasure will set sail on its inaugural voyage sometime in 2024. More details on this ship including its home port and itineraries will be revealed in the coming months so make sure to stay tuned!
