The Disney Fantasy Cruise Ship was scheduled to arrive back in port early this morning from her first sailing since being in dry dock for magical enhancements. However, that arrival has been delayed to 11 am due to mechanical problems that seems to have completed stopped the vessel for two hours over night. Some passengers reported this morning that only one propeller on this ship is working. Since the ship will have to clear customs first, an 11 am arrival into Port Canaveral means that passengers most likely will not even be able to start disembarking until 12:30 pm. Guests aboard the ship are now frantic trying to arrange for changes to their flights home due to the delay.
Passengers aboard the Fantasy for it’s first sailing out of dry dock have also reported issues with the air conditioning and problems with the toilet system. It was also reported that the ship had to make an unexpected stop in Freeport, Bahamas on it’s second night for a medial emergency.
Disney Cruise Line has not yet released an official statement on this delay. Passengers who are expected to board the Fantasy today for their cruise should contact Disney Cruise Line directly for an updated status of their sailing time.
Let us know if you are currently aboard the Fantasy or if you plan to board for today’s sailing.
