Disney Wonder sailings beginning with the April 24th repositioning cruise to Vancouver, the Hawaii voyages, and all May and June Alaskan cruises have been removed from Disney Cruise Line’s cruise search and booking page.
While no official announcement has been made by Disney on the missing sailings, this does come less than 24-hours after Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the Canadian cruise season is suspended until July 2020.
The following are the sailings that are no longer listed on Disney Cruise Lines website, all of which include a Canadian port of call.
- Friday April 24, 2020 5-Night San Diego to Vancouver Cruise

Please note, at this time, this is information is based on an observation and should not be considered fact until any official announcement is made by Disney Cruise Line. Please do not call Disney based on this posting, as nothing has officially changed.
UPDATE: On March 15th, Disney Cruise Line emailed guests booked on the removed Disney Wonder sailings the following correspondence reiterating what I stressed above, these cruise have NOT been changed or canceled at this time.
At this time, we have not made any changes to sailings departing after this date, including your sailing. We are monitoring global developments and following the guidance of public health authorities and ports of call regarding who they will allow to disembark based on travel history and health screenings. We will notify you should itinerary changes be necessary.
We will continue to monitor this extremely dynamic situation brought on by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) threat.
Obviously DCL is doing the right thing as is the entire industry . I do,however, feel bad for the other major cruise lines (RCCC, Norwegian, Carnival MSC and others) as the cruise line is their only business. At least DCL is part of a larger business and hopefully those other entities can help share the current losses of DCL. If I were to make a suggestion to executives it would be to announce itineraries for 10/21, 11/21 and 12/21 ASAP in order to further help customers to reschedule
