Ooooh Two!

Introducing:

"The Disney Nemo inspired by Pixar's Finding Nemo"
and
"Disney's Buzz Lightyear Light Cruiser inspired by the Disney/Pixar release 'Toy Story'"

If they start naming ships like they name new attractions ;)

Sounds like there might just be another chance for trans-atlantic crossings. ;)

A trans-atlantic crossing on a Disney ship? I'll be first in line. (ok, second behind Disneyphile)

I'll be sure to make my trip report from this August extra enticing. ;)

If they are going to make the Mediterranean a regular itinerary, wouldn't they just leave the boat there when completed? Or will the new boats go to the Caribbean and displace the Magic and Wonder to new itineraries?

I'm hoping they send the Magic to LA permenently. :D

Before you start putting these new ships on the West Coast, chances are slim that is going to happen. At 122,000 gross tons, these ships will not fit through the Panama Canal and very few make the run all the way around the Cape, so chances are these new ships will stay in the Caribbean or possibly Europe in the summer. If any ship comes west after these are built it will probably be the Magic, possibily the Wonder, but we are probably going to have to go east for the new ships.

OMG, if they *did* send one around the Cape, I'd totally be up for that! I wonder if they'd make it an Antarctic cruise? I've always wanted to do that!

I thought they had to special build a ship that could manage the Alaskan Inside Passage? That would point to at least one new ship coming West, because it's been established that the Magic and the Wonder aren't built for it.

Well, we've got years to speculate!
