Disney Cruise Line has announced the inaugural dates and itineraries for its new island destination in The Bahamas as well as various other deployment updates.

 “We are delighted to take families to new places during the summer 2024 season, including our newest island destination at Lighthouse Point in The Bahamas,” said Sharon Siskie, senior vice president and general manager, Disney Cruise Line.

“We’re also thrilled to return to Europe with new ports of call and offer exciting adventures to Alaska and the Caribbean. All of these Disney Cruise Line sailings provide the unique experiences that our guests have come to expect from Disney, from world-class dining and dazzling entertainment to character encounters and legendary guest service.”

 Disney Cruise Line will debut its new destination on the island of Eleuthera at Lighthouse Point in June 2024. On June 6, the Disney Magic will set sail from Fort Lauderdale on a three-night preview cruise giving guests a sneak peek of Lighthouse Point, a beach retreat designed with families in mind as well as a commitment to conservation, the company said.
