The Disney Magic is a cruise liner that blends classic beauty and grace with all the modern luxuries, technology and comforts that make cruising a pleasure. With its distinctive design, signature yellow trim across the stately bow and room to accommodate 2,400 passengers, the Disney Magic is one of the most admired and recognizable ocean liners in the world—making hundreds of trips to dozens of exotic international ports every year.
Design and Construction of the Disney Magic
Conceived as a "modern classic," the Disney Magic was designed to evoke all the glamour and beauty of the golden age of ocean travel. With these careful plans, the Disney Magic was built in the legendary Fincantieri shipyards in Italy, revered for the technical ability and ingenuity of its engineers and workforce.
Through painstaking construction and exhaustive tests, a cruise liner with an unprecedented combination of power, speed and sleek beauty took shape. Today, this sturdy vessel contains an environment that is optimally comfortable, secure and, most importantly, family-friendly.
Interior Design of the Disney Magic
The finest in artistry and technology marks the interior design of the Disney Magic. From its creation, the ship was meant to pay homage to the age when ocean liners—once the primary link between Europe and the Americas—represented an era's very best artists and architects, and evidence of this purpose can be found on every deck.
Specially commissioned paintings, sculptures and woodwork, as well as rare animation cels from the expansive Disney archive make the ship's Art Deco interior inimitable and distinctive. Rich detail can be observed in everything from the murals and framed pieces that line its interior walls to the gleaming fixtures and furnishings that fill its grandest spaces.
Step inside the luminous atrium lobby and find yourself greeted by the bronze statue of Helmsman Mickey—designed by Walt Disney Imagineers to create a spirit of fun from the minute you board. Overhead, you'll observe a dazzling chandelier crafted by one of the world's most celebrated glass artist, Seattle's Dale Chihuly. The same grandeur encountered in the lobby translates into all the surroundings on the Disney Magic, from its illustrious theatres to its stately staterooms.
