Disney Cruise Line<\/span><\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

In 1985, the extinct Premier Cruise Line became the licensed partner cruise line with Disney. This allowed Disney characters on their ships and combined cruise, hotel and theme park packages. In 1993, Premier ended their relationship with Disney and signed a new one with Warner Brothers, utilizing the Looney Tunes characters. Premier continued to offer Disney land and sea packages while adding Universal Studios as an option. Thus Disney approached both Carnival and Royal Caribbean cruise lines to replace Premier as an exclusive sea partner but the negotiations failed. Following those events, on May 3, 1994, Disney announced that they intended to start their own cruise line with operations starting in 1998.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The cruise line was incorporated as Devonson Cruise Company Limited on February 6, 1996, in the United Kingdom, but soon was renamed Magical Cruise Company Limited on October 1, 1996. On the same year, Disney purchased Gorda Cay as the line’s private island<\/a>. The company spent $25 million over 18 months on the island and renamed it Castaway Cay<\/a>, with a second location (not an island) purchased in early 2019, named Lighthouse Point<\/a>, and its located on the island of Eleuthera, Bahamas.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The ships are the first in the industry to be designed and built from the keel up as family cruise liners, with the goal of accommodating and equally satisfying adults and children. Unlike most ships of their type, they do not include casinos. Disney ships also feature ship’s horns, affectionately known as the “Mickey horn”, which play the opening seven-note theme of “When You Wish Upon a Star” from Disney’s Pinocchio<\/i>, in addition to the traditional horn. The Disney Dream<\/i> and Disney Fantasy<\/i> include other tunes on their horn not heard on the Disney Magic<\/i> and the Disney Wonder<\/i>, such as “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?”, “Star Wars Darth Vader theme”, “It’s a Small World”, and an elongated version of “When You Wish Upon a Star”.
