Due to complications created by Hurricane Frances, the U.S. Coast Guard is not allowing ships into Port Canaveral for safety reasons.

Officials said the Disney Cruise Line is sending its two ships, the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder, to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, where they will disembark Tuesday.

Disney Cruise Line will provide transportation for all guests to the Walt Disney World Resort, the Orlando International Airport, Port Canaveral or airports in Ft. Lauderdale and Miami based on their needs.

The Disney Magic will set sail again Tuesday, Sept. 7, from Port Everglades, on a four-night cruise to Cozumel, Mexico. Guests who are in the Central Florida area for the Sept. 7 cruise will be provided with transportation to Port Everglades.

The Disney Wonder Cruise originally scheduled to leave on Sunday, Sept. 5, has been canceled. Guests who were scheduled to sail on the Disney Wonder have the option of cruising on the Sept. 7 sailing of the Disney Magic if space permits.

Disney Cruise Line reservations agents are in the process of contacting guests who are scheduled to sail on the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder this week. Guests who have questions can call (800) WDW-CRUISE.
