Welcome aboard, Kristin! Thanks for sailing by planDisney with a great question for our Disney Cruise Line crew. I’m excited to answer your question because my family has sailed out of the beautiful departure port of New Orleans twice with Disney Cruise Line and I have lots of great information to share with you. Pull up a virtual lounge chair, fill your cup with some chicory coffee, and let’s dig a little deeper!I was fortunate to be on the inaugural sailing from New Orleans on the Disney Wonder in early 2020. My family sailed again out of the departure port of New Orleans this year on the Disney Magic, and it was another wonderful experience. There's so much to see in this vibrant city if you arrive early, with many partner hotel or transportation options to the port.You can find a cruise that suits your family’s schedule by searching the home page of Disney Cruise Line; it appears that the 2024 sailing season has these departures through March 2024.
