Disney to offer staycations from UK ports

Disney Cruise Line is to offer ‘staycations’ from British ports this summer with Disney Magic sailing two and three-night voyages, as well as a limited number of four-night sailings.

The cruises will operate from London Tilbury, Newcastle, Liverpool and Southampton.

“Our teams are bringing tremendous ingenuity and fun to these new cruises, tailoring them with care to the times we are living in, yet filling them with everything you’d expect from Disney, from great service and entertainment to immersive dining experiences and magic for the whole family,” said Thomas Mazloum, president of Disney Cruise Line.

The ship won’t make any calls once it has departed. In a statement the company said: “Disney Cruise Line is implementing multiple layers of health and safety measures considering guidance from the U.K. government, health authorities and medical experts. This includes COVID-19 testing, health screenings, face coverings, reduced guest capacity, physical distancing and enhanced cleaning.”

The cruises go on sale in April, to depart in the summer.
