About Disney Fantasy
Disney Fantasy is the second Dream-class ship, built alongside Disney Dream by Meyer Werft and in service since March 2012 with 1,250 staterooms. She shares the AquaDuck water coaster with her sister but replaces the Dream's pool-deck bar with a water play area themed to Huey, Dewey and Louie, and her adults-only restaurants are Palo and the French-inspired Remy. Her musical horns play Disney tunes. After a 2025 summer in Europe from Southampton, she went into dry dock at Brest, France, in autumn 2025 for a new concierge suite and spa and lounge updates. She is based at Port Canaveral for three- to five-night Bahamas and Western Caribbean cruises, with a 10-night Southern Caribbean voyage in summer 2027.
