Disney Cruise Line has announced that the Disney Treasure cruise ship has transitioned from the construction building at the Meyer Werft shipyard to the harbor. This marks a significant milestone for the vessel, which will undergo final preparations before a transatlantic journey to Florida ahead of its December 2024 inaugural sailing.
Minnie Mouse was in attendance for the Float Out ceremony. Here’s a look at the ceremony and the announcement from Disney Cruise Line:
Today at Meyer Werft Shipyard, the Disney Treasure floated out of the building to dock into the shipyard harbor. A scene of excitement greeted the ship, as a group of cheering spectators in Papenburg, Germany, gathered to watch the special construction milestone. The Float Out celebrates the completion of the ship’s exterior and is a significant maritime tradition.
A tugboat led the way, guiding the ship’s stern through the narrow doorway, which allowed for just three feet on either side of the vessel!
The Disney Treasure is now ready for finishing touches to its interior venues as it continues to prepare for its transatlantic journey to its future home port in Florida.
