Disney Cruise Line Expands Sailings in California and Texas

Disney Cruise Line is thrilled to reveal their anticipated fall 2026 and spring 2027 itineraries, aiming to provide families from California and Texas with an even broader selection of sailings right from their coasts. This recent announcement marks a significant increase in available cruises departing from San Diego and Galveston, allowing families to explore stunning tropical destinations whilst creating unforgettable memories at sea.

California Dreaming

For the first time, the beloved city of San Diego will host not just one, but two Disney Cruise Line ships throughout the fall of 2026. The iconic Disney Magic is set to sail from California for an array of voyages ranging from three to seven nights during October and November. After that, this enchanting vessel will embark on a remarkable 14-night cruise from San Diego to Galveston, featuring breathtaking stops at popular destinations like Puerto Vallarta, Cartagena, and Grand Cayman.

Welcoming in an enchanting partnership, the Disney Wonder will also join the itinerary in San Diego, setting sail for a charming seven-month season. Guests can indulge in sailings ranging between three and seven nights, visiting hotspots such as Catalina Island and other beautiful locales including Cabo San Lucas, Ensenada, and Puerto Vallarta in Mexico. Visitors can bask in the scenic views of the Pacific as they unwind in spectacular waters.

Lone Star State Magic

The late 2026 and early 2027 period will see an extended Disney cruising experience straight from the heart of Texas. The Disney Magic will once again grace the Lone Star State with four-, five-, and seven-night voyages commencing in November 2026 until April 2027. These journeys will whisk guests away to the sun-kissed beaches of Cozumel along with cultural explorations in Progreso, Mexico. Many itineraries will even offer the chance to visit the beautiful Disney Castaway Cay and Nassau for those seeking to indulge in a Bahamian getaway.

Themed Sailings

The magic continues as Disney Cruise Line announces the return of its beloved themed sailings, featuring festive décor and delightful activities designed for the whole family. 2026 will bring the Halloween on the High Seas cruises from September to October and the Very Merrytime Cruises from November to December, ensuring that every family can celebrate the holidays in style while enjoying themed experiences right on board.

In addition to these exciting offerings, Disney plans to have five ships operating from Florida, alongside a reintroduction of three- and four-night cruises aboard the Disney Adventure departing from Marina Bay Cruise Centre in Singapore.
