MORE NEWS TO SHARE🚢

I’m so excited to share that I am expanding into the world of luxury river cruising! 🌏

I’ll now be helping my clients explore some incredible river cruise experiences with:

✨ Viking River Cruises
✨ Scenic Luxury Cruises
✨ Emerald Cruises
✨ Avalon Waterways

And I have to tell you, I think this style of travel is worth a closer look!

Have you ever priced a veranda stateroom on Royal Caribbean or Celebrity and wondered what else might be available for a similar investment? Depending on the sailing, dates, and itinerary, a luxury river cruise may be more comparable in price than you think! However, we do this without the crowds, climbing wall, casino, or other things that you aren’t interested in.

The difference? Many river cruises include extras that can really add up on an ocean cruise.

🥂 W**e, b**r, and other beverages, depending on the cruise line and fare
🏛️ Guided excursions to explore beautiful destinations
🍽️ Delicious dining and onboard experiences
🏰 Charming towns, historic cities, and unforgettable scenery right along the river

Imagine waking up in a new destination, stepping off your ship, and exploring a beautiful town without spending your vacation navigating huge ports or traveling long distances from the ship to the places you came to see.

And as we get older, I think experiences like these become even more meaningful. It’s about slowing down enough to enjoy the moment, seeing the places we’ve always dreamed about, and making memories with the people we love. ❤️

I’m excited to bring these new options to my clients, and I would love for you to explore them with me!

You may already be closer to experiencing a luxury river cruise than you realize. 💙

📩 If you’ve ever been curious about river cruising, send me a message! Cruising on a smaller more intimate ship to foreign places with people that enjoy the same things you do. Let’s compare options, talk about what matters most to you, and find an adventure that fits your travel dreams and budget.

Thank you for supporting Once Upon a Vacation and allowing me to help you discover new ways to see the world. This is an exciting new chapter, and I can’t wait to share it with you! ✈️🌍

🚢✨NEW DISNEY CRUISE LINE ITINERARIES ARE HERE!

Okay, friends — this is a bit of a lengthy read, but it’s an IMPORTANT one because there is **so much good stuff** coming for Fall 2027 and Spring 2028! 🏰⚓️🌴

📅 **BOOKING DATES**

⭐ Early booking begins **August 31, 2026** for select Castaway Club members
⭐ General booking opens **September 8, 2026**

💰 **WHY BOOK WHEN ITINERARIES FIRST OPEN?**

Disney Cruise Line uses dynamic pricing, which means fares are generally at their lowest when a new booking window first opens. As staterooms sell and availability decreases, prices can increase.

The initial deposit is only **10% of the cruise fare and is refundable** within Disney Cruise Line’s applicable cancellation terms. This gives you the opportunity to lock in early pricing AND the stateroom you want without paying for your entire vacation upfront!

You can also make payments over time leading up to your final payment date. 🙌

Booking early gives you the best combination of **lower fares + better stateroom availability**, especially for some of these unique itineraries that may fill quickly!

🗽🚢 **DISNEY WISH — NEW YORK IS BACK!**

This is BIG! There are only **SEVEN Disney Wish sailings departing from New York City**, so I expect these to go QUICK! 👀

Beginning in late September 2027, the Disney Wish will offer:

🌊 Five NYC sailings to Bermuda, including three with an extended stay
🍁 New England & Canada itineraries
🗽 4- to 7-night voyages from New York City

But the journey TO New York may be just as exciting! 🤩

🌍 On **September 12, 2027**, the Disney Wish will depart Southampton, England, on a special **12-night westbound transatlantic cruise to New York City!**

Stops include:

🏴 Greenock (Glasgow & Edinburgh), Scotland
🇮🇸 Reykjavik, Iceland
🇨🇦 St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada
🗽 Ending in New York City!

If you’ve ever wanted to combine a European vacation, Disney Cruise AND a transatlantic crossing, this is definitely an itinerary to watch! ✈️🚢

Following its New York season, the Wish will also sail from **San Juan** before returning to Port Canaveral for 3- and 4-night Bahamian cruises.

🌴☀️ **DISNEY FANTASY — SOUTHERN CARIBBEAN FROM SAN JUAN**

These immediately caught my attention! 😍

The Disney Fantasy will offer select **7-night Southern Caribbean cruises from San Juan, Puerto Rico**, which are such an amazing combination of destinations and the Disney Cruise experience.

📅 San Juan departures include:

⚓ November 5, 2027
⚓ December 3, 2027
⚓ April 29, 2028
⚓ May 6, 2028

Depending on the specific sailing, these itineraries feature different combinations of:

🇦🇼 Oranjestad, Aruba
🇨🇼 Willemstad, Curaçao
🇧🇶 Kralendijk, Bonaire
🇩🇲 Roseau, Dominica
🇦🇬 St. John’s, Antigua
🇸🇽 Philipsburg, St. Maarten
🇱🇨 Castries, St. Lucia
🇧🇧 Bridgetown, Barbados

🌺 Not every sailing visits every port listed above, so we can compare the individual itineraries to find your favorite combination!

It’s happening!!!!! 🗽

🚢✨ Disney Cruise Line is teasing something BIG for tomorrow… and of course I had to investigate!

Disney dropped this photo with six coordinates, and they appear to point to some VERY interesting cruise ports. 👀

📍 40° 46.3’ N — New York City 🗽
This is probably the coordinate that has me the MOST intrigued! Could Disney Cruise Line be returning to New York?

📍 18° 27’ N — San Juan, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
We already know the Disney Dream has San Juan on its 2027 schedule, so could we see even more sailings from Puerto Rico?

📍 29° 18.2’ N — Galveston, Texas 🤠
The Disney Magic currently has Galveston sailings, but could another ship eventually join her or take her place?

📍 32° 43.3’ N — San Diego, California 🌴
Disney has a history on the West Coast with the Disney Wonder and Disney Magic. What could Disney have planned next for San Diego?

📍 26° 5.4’ N — Fort Lauderdale, Florida ☀️
The Disney Destiny currently calls Fort Lauderdale home, so this could mean additional Destiny itineraries — or maybe Disney has another surprise planned!

📍 28° 24’ N — Port Canaveral, Florida 🏰
This one opens up LOTS of possibilities. The Disney Wish, Disney Treasure, Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream all have connections to Port Canaveral, although we already know the Wish is heading across the Atlantic for her first European season in 2027.

⚠️ Important: Disney hasn’t told us what these coordinates mean yet, and the ships I’m mentioning are based on current schedules and a little Disney detective work — NOT confirmed assignments for tomorrow’s announcement!

But with new itineraries still to come and the Disney Believe arriving in late 2027, I have LOTS of questions. 🚢✨

🗽 Is Disney returning to New York?
🚢 Where will the Disney Believe call home?
🗓️ Are Fall 2027 and Spring 2028 itineraries coming?
🔄 Could some of our current ships be getting new homeports?

We should know more TOMORROW, and I’ll be watching for the announcement! 👀✨

Which of these ports would YOU be most excited to sail from?
