This new 4,000-passenger ship will feature the first-ever shipboard water coaster that is four decks high. Riders seated on inflatable rafts will zip through a 765-foot-long tube (that’s more than two football fields) from the ship’s highest point, through a funnel and a tube 13 feet off the ship’s side. Get a sneak peak at the water coaster here!
Other new features of the Disney Dream are animation-driven, such as "enchanted art" placed throughout the ship that will animate when passengers approach it and will change depending on who is looking.
One of the most unique new amenities we’ve seen includes unique upgrades to typically windowless inside staterooms. Now, they will actually feature "virtual portholes" offering live video feeds via cameras outside the ship, corresponding to the cabin’s place onboard, and you’ll also see animated starfish and pirate ships through the new portholes.
In the children’s area, the Dream will have an animated turtle that engages kids in conversation about ocean life. The turtle will "remember" the children's names.
Purpose-built for families, Disney’s ships have always been focused on creating separate spaces for children in different age groups, and also for adults. The ship will be almost 50% larger than the current Disney ships.
The Dream will have Disney’s first tween area, called “Edge” rounding out youth programming that has always had specific areas for babies, children and teenagers. On the Dream, it will add a space just for children ages 11 to 13, who don’t quite identify with high schoolers but are too old to for the elementary school kids.
A 9,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor space will give teenagers a private deck area on the ship’s bow with wading pools and fountains for cooling off, and deck games such as ping-pong and foosball.
They also get a dance floor where they can get in the DJ booth and try their hand at spinning tracks.
The younger Dream passengers will have playrooms themed around Disney movies, such as a Toy Story room, a Monsters Inc. area and a Finding Nemo space.
For adults, an area on the ship called the “District” will encompass five nighttime entertainment areas. The District will have a dance club, sports bar, champagne room and lounge where virtual cityscapes change daily.
