Disney Destiny announced as third Triton-class ship in Disney Cruise Line fleet

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

The Disney Destiny, sister to the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, will have a first-of-its-kind design theme, “Heroes and Villains,” drawing on the legacies of beloved Disney stories, characters and theme park attractions.

The Disney Destiny also reached a new construction milestone today with the keel laying ceremony at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, which is a maritime tradition designed to bestow good luck upon the ship. The ship is scheduled for delivery in 2025 as part of a multi-year expansion of the Disney Cruise Line fleet that includes the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure, the Disney Adventure that will homeport in Singapore, and the new island destination in The Bahamas, Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

The Wish is definitely the nicest of the ships (and I assume Treasure will be too), but the problem with the Triton class is the lack of a full-circle promenade deck. I'm not the only one to feel that way, apparently. When eating and drinking is a sport, you need a way to walk all of that off, and the first four ships have that.

The full-circle promenade decks are one of the low-key best things about the original ships. You can kind of step away from the activities of the cruise and just take in the scenery at your own pace.
