Once more, a magical world has been built by Disney Cruise Line imagineers, this time on board the Disney Wish.

'Enchantment' is the theme that runs throughout the ship, from the Walt Disney Theatre's enchanted woodland setting to the cabins that are reminiscent of storybooks and the Grand Hall that resembles a fairy tale castle, complete with a sparkling wishing star that hangs from the chandelier above.
