Notes

Disney Fantasy is a cruise ship owned and operated by Disney Cruise Line, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. She is the fourth ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet and the second vessel of the Dream class, following Disney Dream (2011).

The Dream class was ordered on February 22, 2007, and built by Meyer Werft at its shipyard in Papenburg, Germany. Construction of the vessel began with the keel laying on February 11, 2011, and the ship was launched on January 10, 2012. She was completed on February 9, 2012, christened on February 28, 2012, and entered service with her maiden voyage on March 31, 2012. The ship reportedly cost approximately US$940 million (equivalent to $1.318 billion in 2025).

As a member of the Dream class, Disney Fantasy represented a significant increase in size over Disney Cruise Line’s preceding Magic class. Dream-class ships have a gross tonnage of approximately 130,000, compared with about 84,000 for the Magic class, which had been introduced more than a decade earlier.
