Destiny or Fantasy?
Hi! Looking to book our second Disney cruise, traveling with my Mom. We will be 35 and 74 at the time of sailing; our first DCL cruise was this past April on the Wish and we LOVED it! We would prefer a slightly longer sailing (5 night min) for our next one so we thought of the Destiny or the Fantasy. We will not be traveling with any children in our party.
What we loved about the WISH:
- it felt new and sparkly (similar to how I assume the Destiny would be)
- Our verandah stateroom
- Palo dinner
Why we think we would prefer the Destiny over the Fantasy:
- The overall Heroes and Villains theme - looks so much cooler than the Wish theming! I was never really a Disney Princess fan but everything from the Marvel bars to the Cruella bar look awesome on Destiny
- Newer Ship / staterooms would be newer than those on Fantasy
- I absolutely LOVE the Lion King (I’m a peak millennial) so I think I’d love this over the Frozen dinner show we had on the Wish
- The Hercules and Frozen stage shows - versus the Fantasy has Aladdin (We just saw it on the Wish) and Frozen.
Why we think we would prefer the Fantasy over the Destiny:
- The dining! The dining rooms are all different than the ones we just experienced on the Wish. Three new venues, compared to if we went with the Destiny it would be only one new venue (TLK theme show)
- The adults only pool area looks AWESOME (according to videos). I thought the Wish was great but now I see why people think it’s so tiny! Fantasy looks so nice
- This ship seem to have some classic cruise things we missed out on by sailing on the Wish - a walking track and mini golf being two of them. The Fantasy seems to have both!
Some things holding us back from booking one over the other…
- The Destiny is very similar to the Wish with the dining options
- the staterooms look very dated on the Fantasy
- We might miss the dinner entertainment the Wish class ships have that the Fantasy seemingly lacks
Please convince us to do one over the other! 🤪
