Sailing with Disney Cruise Line is always a great idea, but as is the case with most cruise lines, you have to exercise patience when booking travel. That’s because itineraries are released early — way early — and if you want first pick of staterooms, you need to book your cruise around 18 months in advance! Case in point: Disney Cruise Line just released its summer 2027 itineraries, and with bookings opening as early as next week for Pearl Castaway Club members, it’s already time to start planning way ahead of time.

But don’t worry; these itineraries are worth melting for…I mean, worth waiting for. Sorry, I’m already dancing in my seat with excitement over Disney Cruise Line’s plans for summer 2027, because it includes the Disney Wish’s debut in Europe which includes an oh-so-apt itinerary in Norway.

Disney Wish debuts in Europe

The major headline from this latest wave of itineraries is that the Disney Wish will make her debut in Europe. Disney Cruise Line is no stranger to European cruises, but this will be a first for the Disney Wish.

While in Europe, the Disney Wish will offer three- to ten-night sailings that visit new ports including Zadar in Croatia, Trieste near Venice in Italy, and Hellesylt in Norway. There will also be a repositioning cruise if you want to take a little Transatlantic voyage.

Personally, I think the Disney Wish was made for European sailings, especially Northern Europe. With a ship designed after the Disney Princesses, a European voyage feels like a no-brainer! Summer 2027 itineraries include 7-night Norwegian Fjords Cruises, which brings the Wish to ports like Bergen, Norway; Hellesylt, Norway; Alesund, Norway; Stavanger, Norway; and Kristiansand, Norway.

Just imagine sailing through Norwegian Fjords or exploring a seaside town during the day followed by dinner at Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure at night! It’s a match made in cruising heaven!

Norway isn’t the only European region you can explore on the Disney Wish. Other itineraries coming in summer 2027 include Spain, the Mediterranean, the British Isles, and other Northern Europe destinations like Denmark and Netherlands.

The always-popular Alaska sailings return in summer 2027 as well, with the Disney Wonder and the Disney Magic making their return to the Pacific Northwest. Both ships will sail out of Vancouver and include Northern Alaska itineraries, providing cruisers even more options when planning this epic vacation.

Marvel Day at Sea and Pixar Day at Sea will both return in 2027 giving fans the chance to dive deep into their favorite stories and celebrate with some of their favorite characters. Marvel Day at Sea will sail from Galveston aboard the Disney Magic starting in January 2027 before she makes her way to Vancouver. Pixar Day at Sea will continue aboard the Disney Fantasy on select five‑night sailings from Port Canaveral.
