Disney Cruise Line announced their much anticipated 2020 summer itineraries today. As expected, the Disney Wonder will return to Alaska in the summer. Unlike prior years, the Wonder will only be sailing 7-night Alaskan cruises in 2020. The Disney Magic will spend the summer sailing throughout Europe and the Mediterranean. Most notably, the Disney Magic will be returning to the Greek Islse with 9- and a 12-night voyages from Civitavecchia.
The Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy will remain at Port Canaveral. The Disney Dream will continue sailing alternating 3- and 4-night Bahamian cruises on Fridays and Mondays. The Disney Fantasy will primarily stick with Caribbean cruises with some new 5-night sailings and a 9-night Southern Caribbean voyage. Plus 3, 4, and 5-might Bahaiman cruises. Yes, the Fantasy will be sailing multiple Bahamian cruises.
Today’s release extends the available sail dates into late-2020 allowing guest to plan vacations more than one year out, as well as take advantage of opening day pricing for some of the new itineraries.
Although the dates were announced today, general booking will not open until Thursday March 7th. However, there will be a tiered booking period beginning Monday March 4th.
- Monday March 4th –Platinum Castaway Club members & Disney’s Golden Oaks residents
- Tuesday March 5th – Gold Castaway Club members
- Wednesday March 6th – Silver Castaway Club members & DVC members who have not previously sailed with DCL
- Thursday March 7th, first time cruisers will be able to book.
If you’re an existing Castaway Club member, simply log in to your account now to verify your Castaway Club status, so you’ll be all set to book on your designated date.
Alternatively, you can call (800) 388-4513 starting at 8:00 AM Eastern Time or contact your travel agent.
Golden Oak Club Members should contact Golden Oak Club Member Services, Disney Vacation Club Members wishing to book with points will need to call Member Services at (800) 800-9800. To make a cash-only booking, call Disney Cruise Line at (866) 325-6348. Finally, Adventures by Disney Insiders call (800) 388-4513—or contact your travel agent.
As was the case with the last itinerary release, Castaway Club members can book online beginning Monday! The only caveat is that this is for new bookings only as the website is not set up to move a placeholder to a new sail date. Those types of bookings will still require a phone call. For those having issues search the new cruises based on your Castaway Club status, you can try this solution I discovered last release.
The following bears repeating, please do NOT try calling today to book; this will just clog up the phone lines and bog down the reservation cast members. There may be people attempting to book an available cruise vacation today.
Below you will find a breakout by ship, but this is a work in progress. I will be updating the website throughout the day as I load the sailings and upload the new itinerary maps. The best way to be alerted to updates if following me on Twitter @TheDCLblog as I will tweet when updates are posted. At the very end, is DCL’s Summer 2020 Itinerary Announcement press release.
Disney Magic Summer 2020 Sailings
The Disney Magic will end her time in Miami embarking on the 2020 Eastbound Transatlantic cruise on May 11, 2020.

There are also 6 new ports of call sprinkled across the 13 new itineraries that Disney will be offering for 2020. Overall, there are 16 sail dates and none of the itineraries repeat.

Disney Dream Summer 2020 Sailings
The Disney Dream will continue sailing 3- and 4-night Bahamian cruises from Port Canaveral during the summer of 2020. IN addition to the standard itinerary offerings, the Disney Dream will offer four 5-night cruises featuring two stops at Castaway Cay. In fact, there are also a couple 4-night double dip sailings.
There is a 3-week itinerary gap for the Disney Dream from August 24 – September 14, 2020 which I suspect is the Disney Dream’s 2020 Dry Dock. The Disney Dream had her first dry dock in 2015 so the timing is right for her second in 2020.
The dry dock was moved and sailings were added in May 2019.

Disney Cruise Line’s Return to Greece Highlights Lineup of Itineraries for Families to See the World in Summer 2020
Summer season features five new ports of call in Europe and returns to Alaska, Caribbean and Bahamas
CELEBRATION, Fla. (Feb. 28, 2019) – In summer 2020, Disney Cruise Line will embark on a variety of itineraries around the world, including a long-awaited return to Greece and the addition of five first-time ports of call in Europe. Along with an expanded European season aboard the Disney Magic, adventures will continue across the fleet with sailings to Alaska, the Caribbean and Bahamas.
Bookings open to the public on March 7, 2019. More details can be found on the Summer 2020 Itineraries page of disneycruise.com.
European Explorations
After a five-year hiatus, the Disney Magic will return to Greece in summer 2020 as part of three special Mediterranean voyages departing from Rome. During one 12-night and two nine-night cruises, guests can marvel at the beautiful landscapes and archeological wonders of destinations like Piraeus, the gateway to Athens; Katakolon, near ancient Olympia; and the islands of Santorini, Mykonos and Crete.
Each of these unique Mediterranean itineraries combines a selection of stops in Greece with visits to other notable cities in the region. Two of the sailings include a new port of call in Messina, Italy, where guests can visit landmarks in Sicily such as Mount Etna, the highest and most active volcano in Europe, or the Piazza del Duomo, the city’s historic center. The third features a return to the “Pearl of the Adriatic,” Dubrovnik, Croatia, for the first time in five years.
Additional new ports of call in Europe include Gdynia, Poland; Nordfjordeid, Norway; Plymouth, England; and Zeebrugge, Belgium. This new collection of destinations is part of the Disney Magic’s grand tour of Europe in the summer of 2020, which begins with sailings through the Mediterranean and Greek Isles before heading to northern Europe in late summer for cruises to the Baltic, British Isles and Norwegian fjords.
Alaskan Adventures
In 2020, the Disney Wonder will return to Alaska for the summer season, opening up a world of breathtaking natural vistas, magnificent glaciers and awe-inspiring wildlife. These seven-night itineraries depart from Vancouver, Canada, with visits to Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point and Dawes Glacier. Each sailing features fun and adventure both in port and on the ship, from stunning scenery and one-of-a-kind Port Adventures in each destination to special touches that bring the splendor and spirit of Alaska to life onboard.
Tropical Travel to the Caribbean and Bahamas
In addition to seven-night eastern and western Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral, near Orlando, Florida, the Disney Fantasy will embark on a variety of itineraries to the Caribbean and Bahamas throughout the summer of 2020. These include five- and nine-night Caribbean sailings, along with three-, four- and five-night Bahamian cruises, three of which feature two stops at Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay.
The Disney Dream will provide even more opportunities for guests to visit Castaway Cay in the summer of 2020 with three-, four- and five-night Bahamian cruises, including a series of sailings with two calls on the private island paradise.
Each sailing aboard the Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream allows guests to experience the magic of Disney entertainment, which includes themed dining spaces, Broadway-style shows and more, while also immersing them in the charming island cultures of tropical destinations throughout the Bahamas and Caribbean.
Guided Experiences with Adventures by Disney
In summer 2020, Disney Cruise Line guests can enrich their cruise vacation with a variety of add- on packages from Adventures by Disney, a leader in family guided group vacations. Highlights include brand-new ways to experience the Caribbean, a return to Alaska and popular packages in northern Europe and the Mediterranean.
Premium Cruise Packages
With Adventures by Disney, guests can book the ultimate Disney cruise experience on select sailings in Alaska, Europe and—new for 2020—the Caribbean. Throughout the voyage, knowledgeable Adventure Guides provide dedicated service both onboard and in port, as they lead guests on specially curated excursions, interactive activities and off-the-beaten-path adventures. Onboard the ship, guests enjoy unique experiences and premium amenities exclusive to Adventures by Disney, such as an intimate talkback session with Walt Disney Theatre cast members followed by a behind-the-scenes costume and prop activity.
Pre-Cruise Escapes
Adventures by Disney also offers popular pre-cruise vacations in Rome; London; Barcelona, Spain; and Copenhagen, Denmark. These two- to three-night Escapes feature unforgettable experiences in iconic cities, such as a private, after-hours visit to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel in Rome. Plus, activities like flamenco dancing, mosaic making and preparing local cuisine immerse families in the culture of each region.
Bookings for these Adventures by Disney offerings open to the public on March 7, 2019. For more information, visit adventuresbydisney.com or contact a travel agent.

What do you think of the new ports and itineraries? Which itinerary do you want to book?
I was hoping to book the 9 night Alaska for 2020. Not sure if I should wait a year in case they bring it back or just book the 7 night. I’m not sure what the difference is between Dawes and Icy Strait. Is this the first time DCL has gone to Greece? That will probably be a popular cruise. Thank you for the info Scott!
imho, Hubbard (the 9 night) was worth it. check the 2019 schedule too – it might be cheaper than you think.
Icy Strait (Hoonah) was a full port stop at a pier with lots of excursions including whale watching.
I believe Dawes is just cruising by the glacier, kinda like tracy or Endicott arm.
Dawes = Endicott.
No, this is not the first time for Greece.
I would go for Skagway (which I personally still found boring as I’m not into the whole gold rush thing) before the obviously manufactured only for cruises Icy Strait which doesn’t even look movie-set real IMHO. (Though if I were to cruise back to Alaska – done it twice…meh – I’d either pick a line that avoided ISP and preferably Skagway in favor of Sitka OR I would have a “sea day in port” at either Skagway or ISP.)
The DVC Member will take place on 8/25/20, a 7 night to Alaska from Vancouver. DVC members can begin booking on 4/6/2019. Link: https://disneyvacationclub.disney.go.com/discounts-perks-offers/member-cruises/overview/?CMP=ILC-DPFY19Q2wo0228190006A
Scott, do you have any idea as to when will we see the fall itineraries. The dates I need are one week beyond the end of these. Sigh! Thanks in advance!
Fall dates have traditionally been announced in May.
Thanks!
Dubrovnik is an odd addition, especially given the problems too many cruise ship/passengers cause in the old city.
We visited Dubrovnik on the Magic in 2013 between our stops in Venice and Malta. Dubrovnik was beautiful and quite charming – we, our kids, and the grandparents all had a wonderful time. I wouldn’t let Dubrovnik’s presence on an itinerary deter you from that sailing – it definitely isn’t a ‘wasted day’ .
I’ve done a city break to Dubrovnik before the cruise season started. The old city was deserted. We had the walls to ourselves most of the day.
Next year is when new rules are suppose to be introduced where ships have to stagger arrivals, say arrive 5am, leave 1pm and arrive 1pm, leave 9pm in an effort to ease the ~10,000 visitors a day. The city has been warned it may lose it’s UNESCO World Heritage Site status unless something is done.
It’s going to be interesting to see how long the DCL stop there. There are 3 other ships in town on that day with a max capacity of about 5000pax in total and the travel time to Katakolon is roughly 16 hours at max speed. Leaving around 4pm would mean an arrival time of 8am in Katakolon. Typical travel time from Rome to Dubrovnik would indeed allow for an early arrival. Port departures/arrival times are going to be very interesting for that cruise, and may lead to some minor disappointment like what we experienced in last summer’s Norway/Iceland cruise where Alesund was a very short stop (and DCL did not do any of their Signature activities). Mykonos could be another shorter stop on this one given the travel time back to Naples.
Sailings from Port Canaveral seem so boring. I was full of anticipation for this new itinerary and even the 9 day southern (which is actually an Eastern really) seems to come up short. I love DCL & want to continue to cruise them but I reviewed the Summer Port Canaveral offerings and was practically snoring by the first few sailings. No Puerto Rico, no Aruba, Western with one Cozumel stop? Gees. I felt like these sailings were an afterthought. Maybe the Fantasy can do a few more itinerary’s with a CC double included. Sadly, it may be break time for our family until the new ships, so full of anticipation and then…..thud! So crazy disappointed DCL! ( we double dipped on a B2B last year and it was nice but I would not do that again because of the repeating menu’s, repeating shows, not enough different movies) It was too much money to have nothing new and fresh to experience) Come on DCL show some LOVE to the Port Canaveral sailings!!
Disney wants more people on the Fantasy because it is the “Best” ship because it is newest. So, they put shorter cruises so those that don’t have as much time to travel go on that ship.
The misnamed ‘Southern’ Caribbean Cruise is indeed the best of the bunch. That said, I can’t speak highly enough of the Magic’s summer cruises in Europe – each and every one we’ve been on has been nothing short of spectacular.
The 7 night British Isle cruise leaving Dover on 9/6 puts the Magic in Plymouth the day after the Mayflower 400 year anniversary. It probably couldn’t be there on the actual day as it is envisaged that all living presidents will be attending the celebration.
Scott, with Disney reducing the departures on the Alaskan cruises for 2020, is this a sign that the Wonder will arrive in Galveston earlier to increase turns as promised in the new agreement with the POG?
John – the last 2020 Alaskan departure from Vancouver is on September 7, which is fairly consistent with 2018. 2019 is a bit unique because of the drydock in between the last Alaskan and the repo to San Diego. Now, the Wonder could be spending less time in San Diego… but we won’t know until a bit later…
Am I a little bummed that they do not have the 11 night Southern Caribbean on the Fantasy again. Thankfully we are getting on it this, but if there is a chance we liked it, we can’t go again. Hopefully some new itineraries will cone up for the fall and winter. If not. We will be waiting until the new ships.
Once again thanks Scott for the heads up on all this. Little bit disappointed in the lack of imagination for the Europe cruises. The greek cruise which is the one we wanted to do is during school time. Out of interest why dont they do longer cruises in the USA? For us to come over and then only have a 3, 4 or 7 night cruise isnt long enough for us as we just love the time on the ships more than the parks.
David, I am not really sure why Disney doesn’t do longer sailings from the United States. Once the new ships come online, I think DCL will have an opportunity to offer longer sailings depending on ship deployment.
Thanks Scott.
Curious if anyone knows when Fall 2020 itineraries might be released by Disney??
This month based on the historical release cycle.
