Disney Cruise Line’s Wish Class has sparked more debate than any fleet Disney has ever launched — and today, we’re breaking down the good, the bad, and the downright controversial. From elevator layouts and the infamous “bathtub pools” to the new rotational dining shows, immersive storytelling, elevated theming, and the real-world fixes Disney implemented between Wish → Treasure → Destiny… we cover it all.

We’re joined by friend of the pod Jess, fresh off the Disney Destiny preview sailing, to talk through what’s working, what still needs love, and whether this new era of Disney cruising truly delivers that old-school magic.

We dig into:

How the Wish Class layout really affects families with kids of different ages

The upgraded theming, art direction, and character moments — including why Destiny feels more “Disneyland” than “Disney World”

What changed (and what didn’t) on the pool decks, and why parents feel so strongly about it

World of Marvel, 1923, and the evolution of rotational dining

The stunning new Pride Lands dinner show — and where the menu still misses the mark

Hidden gems like Hero Zone, lounges, nightlife, and which ship currently balances it all best

Whether you’re booked on Wish, eyeing Treasure, or dying to experience Destiny after its big debut, this is your essential Wish Class Guide to help you plan smarter, set expectations, and maximize the magic.
