Disney Cruise Line and the Port of San Diego have signed an extended agreement that will almost double Disney’s sailings out of the port and is valid through at least 2031.
Disney Cruise Line and Port of San Diego
“San Diego has been an important part of our West Coast operations for more than a decade, and a place our guests love sailing from,” Jose Fernandez, Vice President of Port Strategy, Development & Operations for Disney Cruise Line, said. “This new agreement supports our long-term growth and helps us continue contributing to the region’s economy.”
“We are grateful to continue our long-standing relationship with Disney Cruise Line,” said Chair Ann Moore, Port of San Diego Board of Port Commissioners. “This agreement not only enhances business operations between the Port, Disney and all our cruise line partners – it also supports a thriving cruise industry that injects millions into the region’s economy and welcomes thousands of visitors to our waterfront each year.”
Under the agreement, Disney has non-exclusive priority access to the North and South berths at the B Street terminal. Disney Cruise Line expects to welcome more than one million passengers through the port during the term of the agreement.
The Disney Magic and Disney Wonder currently sail out of San Diego at select times of year, visiting ports of call in California and Mexico. The Disney Magic arrives in October 2026 with three- to seven-night voyages through November. Then it will sail on a 14-night Panama Canal transit to Galveston.
The Disney Wonder will homeport in San Diego from October 2026 through April 2027 with three- to seven-night itineraries. Stops include Catalina Island, Cabo San Lucas, Ensenada and Puerto Vallarta.
This means Disney’s sailings out of the port will almost double. More than one million Disney Cruise Line passengers are expected to travel through the port during the course of the agreement.
By 2031, Disney Cruise Line will have a total of 13 ships. The Disney Adventure just recently launched and the Disney Believe will follow in 2027. A fifth Wish-class ship, sailing out of Japan, will join the fleet in 2029. Disney will then launch a new class of smaller ships.
