Disney Cruise Line has been the talk of the town lately, with its fleet tripling in size in less than 10 years. Its next ship, the Disney Believe, will launch in 2027.

A growing fleet isn’t the only way Disney Cruise Line has garnered headlines lately. It’s shaking things up with itineraries, and we just learned about a major change that will bring Disney back to the Big Apple!

Disney Cruise Line just announced its newest lineup of itineraries, and one of the most notable differences is that the Disney Wish will be docked in New York City…but not for long!

Disney Wish to sail out of New York

The Disney Wish will be summering in Europe in 2027, so it makes sense that she stops in New York on her way back across the Atlantic. This is the first time Disney Cruise Line has sailed out of New York since 2023, so this is some pretty major news!

For the fall 2027 season, the Disney Wish will embark on the following 4- to 7-night sailings:

  • 4-Night Bermuda (September 29 – October 3, 2027)
  • 5-Night Bermuda (October 14 – 19, 2027 and October 19 – 24, 2027)
  • 5-Night Canada & New England (October 3 – 8, 2027)
  • 6-Night Bermuda & Canada (October 8 – 14, 2027)
  • 7-Night Canada (October 24 – 31, 2027)
  • The season culminates in a one-way, 5-Night Bermuda Cruise from New York ending in San Juan (October 31 – November 5, 2027)

Bookings for the New York City sailings as well as the latest lineup of fall 2027 and spring 2028 sailings will open in phases for Castaway Club Members and select Guests beginning August 31, 2026, with general booking available September 8, 2026.

I for one am excited for Disney Cruise Line to return to New York. As someone who lives in the Northeast, it’ll be nice to be a train ride away from the port! Be sure to follow along for more Disney Cruise Line news and updates.
