Disney Cruise Line guests with sailings booked in July 2021 abord the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy have been informed that all July sailings from the United States have been cancelled. In correspondence to those who had booked, Disney Cruise Line cites discussions with the Centers for Disease Control as the reason for the cancellation.

Guests who had paid in full are offered a 125% future cruise credit or a full refund. Those who prefer the credit will see it automatically applied to their account. Disney Cruise Line urges guests to contact their travel agent to make new reservations. Guests that made partial payments will receive a refund equal to what they have paid.

July “Magic at Sea” sailings aboard the Disney Magic have not been addressed in this notice, and appear to still be bookable for guests residing in the U.K.

The notice from Disney Cruise Line to affected passengers includes the following details:

We continue to work closely with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to carefully review and implement their recently released guidance and refine our protocols for a responsible and gradual return to service in U.S. waters. Given the ongoing nature of these discussions and the time needed to staff and prepare our ships, we are canceling Disney Fantasy sailings through July 2021.

Once you have decided on an alternate sail date, you may contact your travel agent. Your agent may place a reservation on hold for you by applying this credit as a payment option when booking a new reservation online. Guests that have not paid their reservations in full will automatically receive a refund of what they have paid so far.

The July departure cancellation news comes on the heels of positive news regarding the upcoming Disney Wish. The newest ship enters service in 2022 with an amazing Moana-themed suite, the AquaMouse attraction, and a Star Wars Hyperspace Lounge.
