Disney Adventure maiden voyage delayed to March 2026 due to shipbuilding

Disney Cruise Line has postponed the maiden voyage of its newest ship, the Disney Adventure, originally scheduled for December 15, 2025, in Singapore, to March 10, 2026, due to unexpected shipbuilding delays. The delay affects all voyages scheduled between December 15, 2025, and March 12, 2026, with approximately 25 sailings impacted. Guests who booked the original maiden voyage will be automatically transferred to the new date with a 50% refund, and those unable to attend can request a full refund plus a 50% discount on a future cruise valid until March 31, 2027. Other affected passengers will receive full refunds and similar future cruise discounts. Disney emphasized its commitment to delivering a high-quality experience and is working directly with guests and travel agents to offer flexible rebooking options and maintain trust. Travel agents will retain their commissions on canceled sailings, and the discount for future cruises will be reflected on guest accounts by early October 2025.
