DCL Duo Podcast: A Disney Cruise Line Fan Podcast

We had our live reactions, but now it's time to hear from some folks who were at D23 what they thought about the Disney Cruise Line announcements, and start to unpack what they mean for the future of DCL. We're joined by Nathan and Alicea from Adventures and Mousecapades who were at D23 this year. We're chatting through what they saw on the floor booths ahead of the Horizons Parks and Experiences event, as well as the major announcements from DCL out of the Horizons presentation. So much ground to cover - including the addition of four new ships!

You can find Adventures and Mousecapades on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Chelsea from our show sponsor, My Path Unwinding Travel, joins us as we recap all the announcements from days two and three of the Disney Destiny reveal. The Desting is Disney Cruise Line's (DCL) newest Wish-class ship, and will set sail November 2025, with bookings starting September 6, 2024 for Castaway Club members and the general public on September 12. Heroes and Villains themed - she'll feature spaces and characters evoking some of Disney's greatest stories, including, as we learned, a heavy emphasis on the Marvel Cinematic Unviverse with Black Panther as the Grand Hall statue and Spiderman as the stern character (both are firsts for Disney as they have never had non-animated characters adorn the Grand Hall or stern of the ship). We're chatting through De Vil lounge, a Cruella De Vil themed bar onboard. The new Cask and Cannon, a pirate-themed bar. The Sanctum, a Dr. Strange themed bar that will replace the Bayou. As well as a host of other new experiences coming to the Destiny. Get your capes aflutter - it's time to chat about our Destiny!
