While Disney Cruise Lines are down stateside, they will be happening in the UK this summer. Disney Cruise Lines have announced their “Staycations at Sea” leaving from the UK and being “exclusive to UK residents.”

The Disney Cruise Line has been taking an enormous hit with the pandemic. They’ve already been down for over a year, but it looks like they found a loophole to get some money.

These short 2-3 night (and limited 4-night) cruises will be happening in Europe aboard the Disney Magic.

“Departing on select dates from London Tilbury, Newcastle, Liverpool and Southampton aboard the Disney Magic, our new staycation sailings—exclusive to UK residents—invite you to embark on a brand-new, magical Disney experience. Close to home and at sea—be immersed in Disney storytelling, thanks to an amazing collection of onboard entertainment, dining and recreation for the entire family, with all the care you’d expect from Disney. Check back soon for more details!”

Here’s what the cruise is offering:

 Disney Characters

There will be characters on board including Disney classics, Princesses and Marvel Superheroes!

“Spend quality time with beloved Disney characters. Snap photos of mighty Marvel heroes or Captain Mickey, behold a royal promenade with Disney Princesses, and greet Toy Story friends.” or “Join in a Frozen flurry of fun with Anna, Elsa and Olaf, or enjoy an epic encounter with Marvel’s mightiest heroes.“
