Disney to offer first cruises to Norwegian fjords

Jason · March 31, 2014

Disney in 2015 will offer its first cruises to the Norwegian fjords as well as Iceland and the Faroe Islands, the line announced today.

Disney says the 1,754-passenger Disney Magic will sail a seven-night voyage departing from Copenhagen on June 6, 2015 that will feature stops in Stavanger, Alesund, Geiranger and Bergen, Norway. Also planned is a nine-night sailing out of Copenhagen on June 20, 2015 that adds calls at Molde and Olden, Norway.

A third, 11-night departure out of Copenhagen on June 29, 2015 will feature stops in Oslo; Kristians and Stavanger, Norway; Akureyri and Reykjavik, Iceland; Torshavn, Faroe Islands; and Dover, England. The Reykjavik call will be an overnight visit.

Fares for the new itineraries start at $1,561 per person for the seven-night cruise; $2,133 for the nine-night cruise; and $2,453 for the 11-night cruise. The trips will open for bookings on Thursday (March 27).

Disney today also announced that the Disney Magic would return to the Baltic in 2015 for a series of sailings. A new seven-night itinerary out of Copenhagen will feature calls at Tallinn, Estonia; St. Petersburg, Russia; Helsinki; and Stockholm. The ship also will sail a 12-night Baltic itinerary as it has in the past.

Christened in 1998, the Disney Magic emerged from a massive, six-week makeover in October that included the addition of new deck-top fun zones, children's areas, eateries and more. Click through the carousel below to see what's new.
