The Disney Magic returns on September 1st to Port Canaveral after being in Europe since May. The ship has been in Italy, Spain and France. These routes were considered a test for the possibility that one of the ships could be based in Europe when the two new ships arrive in 2011 and 2012.
“We are delighted by the success of our Mediterranean itineraries,” Disney Cruise Line President Tom McAlpin said.
“We’re happy to have the Magic back,” Canaveral Port Authority Chief Executive Officer Stan Payne said. “Port Canaveral is the home port of Disney Cruise Line. There’s a drop in passengers any time you don’t have one of the cruise ships here. These cruise ships create so much economic spinoff, they’re good for the county, the region and the whole state.”
