Disney Cruise Line is celebrating the success of its inaugural season in Australia and NZ following 32 magical sailings that set sail from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland from October 2023 – February 2024.

This morning, the Disney Wonder’s last Australian voyage of the season docked and the ship will later today sail out of Sydney Harbour on route to Honolulu, US.

Due to popular demand, these magical sailings will return to local shores! Disney Cruise Line will return from October 2024 through February 2025 with two-to-seven night ‘Disney Magic at Sea’ sailings aboard the Disney Wonder, sailing from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland.
