Key Aspects:
- Disney Wonder and Disney Magic will offer a combined 93 sail dates from San Diego and Galveston from fall 2026 through spring 2027.
- The rest of the fleet, including Disney Destiny, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, Disney Wish, and Disney Treasure, will remain in Florida while Disney Adventure homeports in Singapore.
- “Halloween on the High Seas” and “Very Merrytime Cruises” seasonal voyages will return.
Families in California and Texas will soon have more chances to sail with Disney close to home. Disney Cruise Line just announced new fall 2026 and spring 2027 itineraries on August 19, 2025, and notably it features longer deployments from San Diego and Galveston.
The move means an increase in options for cruisers who prefer to start sailing without a cross-country flight to enjoy the spoils of Disney.
Plus, the new schedule places two Disney Cruise Line ships together on the West Coast for the very first time.
Disney Wonder will sail from San Diego for seven months beginning in October 2026, while Disney Magic will also homeport there in October and November before shifting to Galveston, where it will remain through April 2027

Fleet Deployments and Holiday Themes
As Disney Cruise Line’s two oldest ships journey far from Florida, the rest of the Disney Cruise Line fleet will mostly be based in the Sunshine State.
Disney Destiny, the cruise line’s newest ship debuting in November 2025, will sail from Fort Lauderdale between October 2026 and May 2027.
The ship’s itineraries will include 4-, 5-, and 7-night cruises to Disney’s Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, as well as Cozumel, Nassau, San Juan, and Puerto Plata.
Also sailing from Fort Lauderdale as well as Port Canaveral will be Disney Dream, offering 3- to 7-night voyages to similar ports, with calls also further afield in St. Maarten and the British Virgin Islands.
Both Disney Fantasy and Disney Wish will feature 3- to 5-night cruises from Port Canaveral with stops at Castaway Cay, Lookout Cay, and Nassau, as the new Disney Treasure, which debuted in December 2024, will take guests on longer 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries.
