Disney Cruise Line announced new details about its newest cruise ship today. The Disney Believe will set sail on December 18, 2027 from Port Everglades. It will sail 4 and 5-night cruises to the Bahamas. I have to admit I was a little disappointed with the announcement. It would have been nice to have a different port and longer cruises. I was most excited about the announcement of the first stage adaptation of Encanto.
