Disney Cruise Line was founded in 1995 by its parent The Walt Disney Company. The fleet consists of the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder. Two new ships are scheduled to be delivered in 2011 and 2012 respectively. As the name suggests, Disney Cruise Line is geared towards parents with children.
Disney Cruise Line has earned a reputation for quality and much like its theme parks, they have perfected the art of customer service. Though there are less expensive cruise options for families, you will have difficulty finding a better choice than Disney Cruise Line.
