Disney Cruise Line now sails a new seven-night western Caribbean cruise vacation to a tropical trio of Caribbean ports and Castaway Cay.

“We are fortunate to have assembled yet another great Disney Cruise Line experience for guests,” said Disney Cruise Line president Matt Ouimet. “Both first-time cruisers and the many repeat Disney Cruise Line cruising this new itinerary will enjoy the wonderful culture found at these great new ports.”

In addition to discovering many of the Caribbean’s most popular ports, guests enjoy the same magical entertainment, clever programming, unique dining experiences, attention-to-detail and excellent guest service featured aboard Disney’s popular seven-night eastern Caribbean cruise vacation, but with a creative twist reflective of the colorful Western Caribbean ports-of-call being visited.

The Disney Magic departs on its seven-night itineraries each Saturday from its year-round home port at Port Canaveral. The itinerary is as follows:

Western Caribbean Itinerary (since May 11, 2002)
Saturday - Depart from Port Canaveral
Sunday - KEY WEST (*Ship remains docked right at Mallory Square through sunset year-round)

Tuesday - GRAND CAYMAN (*Lessons learned at Disney theme parks, four tenders and organized queues make tendering from the south pier a seamless experience)
