Disney Cruise Line Adds Two Eastern Caribbean Itineraries

Disney Cruise Line (DCL) announced two new Eastern Caribbean itineraries for 2009 and special offerings for 2008. Beginning in 2009, St. Croix will be the port of call on one new seven-night itinerary, and Tortola will be featured on another seven-night itinerary. Both islands are new to DCL, increasing the seven-night Caribbean choices on the Disney Magic to four itineraries. Disney's traditional Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries will continue. The Disney Magic will remain in the Caribbean during summer 2009 because of pent-up summer demand after it spent this past summer in Europe and will operate Mexican Riviera cruises from the Port of Los Angeles in summer 2008.

The new Eastern Caribbean itineraries will stop at St. Croix or Tortola, St. Thomas and Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. Also, for summer 2008, the four-night itinerary was changed to offer two stops at Castaway Cay, Disney's private island in the Bahamas, between May 11 and Aug. 24, 2008. These 16 sailings will also visit Nassau. In another announcement, beginning in 2008, Disney passengers can choose to add a meal plan to a seven-night land-sea vacation. The new vacation package, the "Land and Sea Package Plus Dining," includes a dining plan that provides guests one sit-down meal, one counter-service meal and one snack per person for each night of their Walt Disney World stay.
