Disney Cruise Line has announced the maiden voyage of the new Disney Wish ship has been delayed. Originally set for June 9th, 2022, it's now set for debut on July 14th, 2022. Any guests with bookings between these times have been contacted with some rebooking options available. DCL's full statement is below.
Over the past year, it has been nothing short of magical to see the excitement build as each new detail about the Disney Wish is revealed. Our cast and crew, as well as our partners at the Meyer Werft shipyard, have poured their hearts into bringing this magnificent new ship to life.
While we are all eagerly awaiting the ship’s debut, today we must share that our anticipation will unfortunately have to extend a bit longer than initially planned. The shipyard has notified us that despite their very best efforts, they will need more time to finish our ship due in part to the pandemic and particularly the arrival of the Omicron variant in Germany at a critical point in the process.
As a result, we are left with no other choice than to delay our maiden voyage until July 14, 2022. This will regrettably affect the exclusive Disney Vacation Club cruise for which you have a reservation. We apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience we know this will cause. And we assure you we will do all we can to help you adjust your family’s vacation plans.
We'll be setting sail on the Disney Wish this summer, so make sure you're following us on Facebook and Instagram!
