The Walt Disney Company has initiated a large-scale expansion of its tourism and entertainment divisions. In late July 2026, the company announced a multi-decade, US$30 billion investment plan for its U.S. theme parks, scheduled to run through 2033. This plan involves major refurbishments and the introduction of new themed areas at Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Simultaneously, Disney is expanding its cruise division, with plans to grow its fleet to 13 ships by 2031. In August 2026, Disney Cruise Line revealed extensive global itineraries for 2027 and 2028. The Disney Fantasy will operate 46 sailings over 252 nights during the period spanning Fall 2027 through Spring 2028, departing from Port Canaveral, San Juan, and Fort Lauderdale to visit the Western, Eastern, and Southern Caribbean, as well as Bermuda. Pricing for two guests in a single stateroom varies, with a night-weighted average of approximately $642 for an inside stateroom and $1,562 for a concierge stateroom. A key highlight is the return of the Disney Wish to New York City, which will sail from the Manhattan Cruise Terminal for seven itineraries between late September and early November 2027, visiting Bermuda, Canada, and New England. ~~Specific regional details for~~ Following the ~~2027 New England and Canadian itineraries include stops at ports such~~ release of these itineraries, demand has been reported as ~~Boston, Massachusetts, St. John, New Brunswick,~~ high, with certain stateroom categories selling out and ~~Halifax, Nova Scotia.~~ prices for several New York sailings increasing.
