About the Disney Magic
The first Disney ship, in service since 1998. In 2026 she sails Alaska from Vancouver for the first time, then Baja from San Diego, crosses the Panama Canal in November and spends the winter in Galveston. The smaller ship, the longer list of places.
Who she suits
Anyone who wants to see somewhere new on a Disney ship: her first Alaska season from Vancouver in 2026, Baja from San Diego, the Panama Canal twice a year, and winters in Galveston for the Western Caribbean. The smallest ship, the longest list of places.
She is a Magic class ship, a sister of the Disney Wonder: A three-deck atrium lobby, the Walt Disney Theatre, Animator's Palate, a water slide rather than a coaster (AquaDunk on the Magic, Twist 'n' Spout on the Wonder), and the AquaLab splash deck. Read about the Magic class →
