The Disney Dream is Just a Dream Away

While we don’t usually cover the Disney Cruise Line on WDW News Today, it was hard to ignore all of the huge announcements concerning the Disney Dream that took place on Thursday afternoon. Here is a video Disney released earlier today highlighting many of the new features for the Disney Dream:

“Commercial” Appeal

Just thought we would take a moment to look at some recent commercials the Walt Disney World Resort has put together for a variety of topics:

  

Holidays at WDW

  

A more recent “What Will You Celebrate?” commercial

  

3-D Theaters on the Disney Cruise Line

“Gas Causes Inflation”

Special thanks to staff member Linda for the following piece of Disney Cruise Line news:

Due to continually rising fuel prices, Disney Cruise Line® is implementing a fuel surcharge. The surcharge is $8 per person, per day for the first two Guests in a stateroom and $3 per day for all other Guests. It is effective for new bookings only made on or after May 28, 2008. Additionally, the surcharge will be capped at $112 each for the first and second Guests in a stateroom and $42 each for all other Guests in the stateroom.

It’s Not Christmas Without Toys

Giving explanation for the concept art released earlier this year, Laughingplace.com is reporting that a new Toy Story Musical will begin playing on the Disney Cruise Line this coming March. Aa most of you may know, opening in the summer of 2008 at Disney’s California Adventure and Disney’s Hollywood Studios is Toy Story “Midway” Mania, an interactive attraction based on the 1995 Pixar film. It appears that Disney is trying to reintroduce the Toy Story characters to the world before the release of Toy Story 3 in the not so distant future.
