Disney Destiny is a cruise ship owned and operated by Disney Cruise Line, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. She is the seventh ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet and the third vessel of the Wish class, following Disney Wish (2022) and Disney Treasure (2024).

Disney Destiny was ordered on July 15, 2017, a little over a year after the first two Wish class vessels and was built by Meyer Werft at its shipyard in Papenburg, Germany. Construction of the vessel began with the keel laying on March 30, 2023, and the ship was launched on August 3, 2025. She was completed on October 24, 2025, christened on November 19, 2025, in New York City, and entered service with her maiden voyage on November 20, 2025.

As a member of the Wish class, Disney Destiny is slightly larger than the preceding Dream class, with a gross tonnage of approximately 144,000, compared with about 130,000 for Dream-class ships, while retaining the same number of guest cabins. During development, the class was known internally as the Triton class. The class marked several firsts for Disney Cruise Line, including the adoption of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a lower-emission fuel and the use of azimuthing podded propulsion (Azipod).
