We had the incredible opportunity to get a first look at the highly anticipated Disney Destiny cruise ship, and from start to finish, the day was pure magic!
The morning began bright and early at the Contemporary Resort with a Villains-themed breakfast, setting the tone for what’s to come. Since the new ship will center around a heroes and villains theme, the details and theming were on point right from the start.
From there, we boarded a bus to Port Canaveral and hopped aboard the Disney Wish, where we were welcomed by none other than Spider-Man and Black Panther—the perfect heroes to kick off our adventure!
The preview event gave us an exciting glimpse into everything the Disney Destiny will have to offer. We got a sneak peek at the exclusive Destiny merchandise, indulged in sweet treats from Edna A La Mode Sweets, and previewed the Doctor Strange-themed lounge, where the drinks were as spellbinding as the decor. A highlight of the day? Seeing Minnie Mouse in her brand-new superhero outfit!
One of the most magical moments took place in the Walt Disney Theater, where we heard from the creative team behind the all-new Hercules Broadway–style show coming to the Destiny. We even got to watch Hercules himself, played by Corey Bradford, take the stage and perform Go The Distance—a truly unforgettable moment.
Lunch was served at 1923 on board the Wish, and then it was back to the Contemporary Resort for a Cruella-themed cocktail hour. This experience gave us a taste of what to expect from the upcoming Cruella piano lounge on the Destiny—including the show-stopping Dalmatian piano and stylish themed drinks.
We ended the day with an incredible dinner inspired by the ship’s Pride Lands: Feast of The Lion King dining experience. Every dish was delicious, but the short rib was an absolute standout. The evening wrapped up with a sing-along to some of our favorite Lion King songs, capping off a day filled with magic, music, and mouthwatering bites.
A huge thank you to Disney Cruise Line for this unforgettable preview. We’re counting down the days until the Disney Destiny sets sail in November 2025—and we can’t wait to step aboard!
