Disney Cruise Line Embarks On New Seven-Night Western Caribbean Itinerary

Disney Cruise Line now sails a new seven-night western Caribbean cruise vacation to a tropical trio of Caribbean ports and Castaway Cay.

"We are fortunate to have assembled yet another outstanding Disney Cruise Line experience for guests," said Disney Cruise Line president Matt Ouimet. "Both first-time cruisers and the many repeat Disney Cruise Line guests sailing this new itinerary will enjoy the wonderful history, culture and beauty of these great ports."

In addition to discovering many of the Caribbean's most popular ports, guests enjoy the same magical entertainment, age-specific programming, unique dining experiences, attention-to-detail and excellent guest service featured aboard Disney's popular seven-night eastern Caribbean cruise vacation, but with a creative twist reflective of the colorful western Caribbean ports-of- call being visited.
