🔊 Listen to this Post Disney Magic is a cruise ship operated by the Disney Cruise Line, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. Disney Magic is over 80 feet longer than the RMS Titanic. Scattered throughout the ship, there are Mickey Impressions, known as “Hidden Mickeys”. People like to search for them.

Onboard shows (just about one each night) are very well done. Some of these shows have been nominated, or have won, multiple awards. The onboard movie theater, The Buena Vista, has first run Disney movies showing. The movies seen in this theater are typically the same Disney movies that are currently in theaters on land.

Built in 1998 by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri in Venice, the Disney Magic can hold approximately 2,400 passengers. Since the summer of 2000 Disney Magic has been offering weekly cruises to Castaway Cay and multiple Caribbean islands out of its home port in Port Canaveral, Florida. In June 2005, the Disney Magic was dispatched to the West Coast in honor of Disneyland’s 50th Anniversary celebrations.

Disney Magic held the record for the highest regular toll paid for passage through the Panama Canal, at $331,200. The title later went to Coral Princess after paying $400,000 to transit the canal. As with other Disney cruise ships, the ship’s horn blast plays an excerpt from Disney’s famous flagship tune, When You Wish Upon A Star. The Disney Magic’s Godmother is Patricia Disney, former wife of Walt Disney‘s nephew, Roy E. Disney.
