October 5 - 19, 2023 • Miami to San Diego
The Disney Magic sails through the Panama Canal for the first time in 15 years! As the Disney Wonder sails down under for the inaugural Australia & New Zealand sailings, the Disney Magic takes over in the Mexican Riviera for Fall 2023. Embark on this adventure out of Miami, and experience this day-by-day montage of Disney’s LONGEST domestic itinerary. This 14 night repositioning sailing through the Panama Canal is one of two 2023 sailings, providing a rare opportunity to experience going through one of the most well known maritime passageways in the world. Total distance traveled was 4980 nautical miles (~5731 miles). I hope you enjoy this recap!
This sailing hosted approximately 2000 guests (215 Kids), out of a max capacity of ~2700 passengers on the Disney Magic. There were also 1007 crew members present aboard this sailing.
