The latest addition to the Disney Cruise Line, the Disney Treasure is set to make its maiden voyage on December 21st, 2024, but we were invited to set sail a bit early aboard the new vessel! We were looking forward to experiencing everything the ship had to offer, but we ended up running into something we NEVER expected. 

Over the course of our journey, we’ve been experiencing everything and anything the Disney Treasure has to offer. Restaurants, lounges, theming, a boy band icon in a Deadpool mask…

Wait, what?

Yup, that’s right. One of our fellow passengers on this media preview cruise is none other than *NSYNC legend Chris Kirkpatrick.

Kirkpatrick’s wife Karlyn has shared several snaps from the cruise on her Instagram stories, including an image of Kirkpatrick on the ship wearing a replica Deadpool mask (If you’ve seen Deadpool & Wolverine, you get it.).

We even spotted Kirkpatrick ourselves…

…several times during our voyage.

Like many of his boyband brethren, Kirkpatrick is no stranger to Disney, having spent part of his pre-fame years in the Orlando area. He even worked at several of the area’s theme parks, including Universal Studios and Sea World during this period, and in later years has performed at EPCOT with former bandmate Joey Fatone.
