Disney Cruise Line has just announced that the Maiden Voyage of the Disney Wish will be delayed until July 14, 2022.
The delay is due to unavoidable delays at the Meyer Werft shipyard which has been impacted by covid and in particular by the presence of the Omicron variant in Germany at a crucial stage of the building process.
The DVC cruise which was due to sail after the Maiden Voyage has also been moved.
Disney Cruises emailed any guests affected by the change and explained their options to them.
The Disney Wish Maiden Voyage will now sail on July 14, 2022. The DVC sailing has been moved to July 19, 2022.
One option which is open to affected guests is a 50 percent discount on a future cruise.
“We know how much our guests are looking forward to sailing on the Disney Wish, and we understand the disappointment and inconvenience this will cause. We treasure the relationship we have with those who sail and make memories with us, and we will work closely with those affected to welcome them aboard in the future,” said Thomas Mazloum, president of Disney Cruise Line. “Despite this unavoidable adjustment to our plans, our team at Disney Cruise Line has never been more optimistic about the future and cannot wait to welcome families aboard the magnificent Disney Wish.”
