Disney Destiny has Finished Her Sea Trials!!
The Disney Destiny has returned to the Port of Eemshaven after completing her Sea Trials! The length of the Sea Trials leads to the conclusion that things went well. If all went well with the Sea Trials Destiny will be officially turned over to Disney within the next couple of days. Then she will start her Transatlantic Crossing to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Before leaving Eemshaven Destiny will have any work that must be done in port and resupply for her trip across the Atlantic. I think Destiny will leave Eemshaven mid-October. It will be a 2-week crossing. This will give them time to fix any little problems they found during the Sea Trials and finish up any work that needs to be done in a shipyard or at a port. It will also give them time to supply for the 2-week Transatlantic crossing.
Disney has still not announced exactly when or where the
Christening Ceremony will be held or if they will livestream it as they have Christenings
of most of the other ships in the fleet. This is a big question many fans want
answered! Most of the ships were Christened at Port Canaveral. The exceptions
are Disney Fantasy and Disney Treasure. They were Christened at the Port of New
York. The Christening could happen at Port Canaveral, Fort Lauderdale, New York
or some other port. Personally I hope the Christening happens at either Port
Canaveral or New York. Both have webcams so you can watch the ship come into
port and see a different angle of the ceremony. Fort Lauderdale has a webcam,
but it does not see the actual dock where the Disney Ships pull in. You can
watch them sail in and out but not see them at the dock.
I believe Destiny will arrive in the US and Christening will
happen sometime between November 1st and 10th. This will
give them time to do some media events and cruises before the Maiden Voyage
November 20th, 2025.
When Disney announces the arrival and the Christening I will
share the information!!!
