Singapore Tourism Board has announced that Disney Cruise Line is extending its service to Asia for the first time ever by designating Singapore the home port for its seventh ship, which will begin year-round sailings in 2025.
The magical cruise holidays, which are specifically designed for Southeast Asian tourists, will be an attraction itself and more details about the maiden voyage, itineraries and onboard experiences will be announced at a later date.
Disney Parks, Experiences and Products chairman, Josh D'Amaro said that Disney Cruise Line and STB recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding and agreed to collaborate to homeport exclusively in Singapore for at least five years.
"This is a very exciting year for The Walt Disney Company as 2023 marks our 100th anniversary," he said, adding that Disney Cruise Line is currently undergoing an ambitious expansion with new ships and new destinations around the world.
The new ship will feature innovative Disney experiences along with the dazzling entertainment, world-class dining and legendary guest service that set Disney Cruise Line apart.
Guests of all ages will find dedicated spaces and activities designed just for them, and families will create unforgettable memories with beloved characters such as Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse, Disney Princesses, Marvel Super Heroes and more.
Disney Cruise Line estimates the passenger capacity of the 208,000-gross-ton ship to be approximately 6,000 with around 2,300 crew members.
It is expected to be among the first in the cruise industry to be fueled by green methanol, one of the lowest emission fuels available.
