Are you ready to meet your destiny?
The Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney Imagineering teams are hard at work with the crew at Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany to bring Disney Cruise Line’s heroes and villains-themed ship, the Disney Destiny, to life.
Here on the Disney Destiny ship’s log, get an exclusive look at the shipbuilding process, along with behind-the-scenes looks at some of the exciting Disney stories coming to life inside. Be sure to bookmark this page for regular updates all the way through the ship’s maiden voyage on November 20 from Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Today, Disney Cruise Line officially welcomed the Disney Destiny to its fleet during a special delivery ceremony in Eemshaven, Netherlands! The delivery ceremony is a maritime tradition that marks the completion of construction and the transfer of ownership from the shipbuilder, Meyer Werft, to Disney Cruise Line.
Joe Schott, president of Disney Signature Experiences, accepted the ship’s delivery alongside Sharon Siskie, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Cruise Line, and Captain Andy McRonald, who will soon lead the Disney Destiny on a transatlantic journey to its future homeport in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
This exciting milestone brings the Disney Destiny one step closer to welcoming families on board for an adventure full of legendary experiences inspired by Disney heroes and villains!
