The Disney Magic returns to New York in September for a selection of departures to a diverse collection of destinations, including Bermuda, Bahamas and historic New Brunswick. Three special five-night cruises feature two days in Bermuda.
During two seven-night sailings from New York to the Bahamas, passengers get a stop at Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay, paired with a day at Port Canaveral, where every guest receives a one-day Walt Disney World Park Hopper ticket and roundtrip transportation to the theme parks in nearby Orlando.
A single five-night cruise to Canada brings guests from New York to Saint John, NB with a stop in Bar Harbor, Maine.

In September the Disney Wonder sets sail for a limited engagement in San Diego, where guests embark on adventures to Baja and the Mexican Riviera. Two seven-night Mexican Riviera sailings feature Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán and Cabo San Lucas.
Disney Cruise Line guests can combine select San Diego-based cruises with a pre-cruise package from Adventures by Disney, on a three-night itinerary that includes a visit to The Walt Disney Studios and Disney Archives, a private tour of Walt Disney Imagineering and a visit to the place where it all began, the Disneyland Resort.
