Recently, Disney CFO Hugh Johnson spoke at MoffettNathanson’s Media, Internet & Communications Conference. He shared many insights into current projects and the future of the Disney Company.
He also shared some information on Disney Cruise Line, which showed us we should expect to see more international ships in the future. Let’s get into everything we learned from the presentation.
Disney has been rapidly growing their cruise line presence over the past several years. Including the Disney Destiny, which opened last year domestically, and the extremely popular Disney Adventure, which made its maiden voyage out of Singapore earlier this year.
Johnson noted, “Our fill rate on the ships is just as high this year as it was last year, despite all of the new capacity that we’ve added in.” Meaning that even with all the new ships entering the fleet, the fill rate has remained high across the entire fleet.
And Johnson believes this is in large part due to the expansion into international ports, “One of the things that I think is beneficial to what we’re doing right now is we’re starting to put ships outside of our traditional ports. Obviously, the Adventure is in Singapore, and it’s a massive ship. It’s double the size of anything that we’ve done before. And we really sold out a season of that ship in just a handful of days.”
Johnson believes the key to continued growth for Disney Cruise Line is to continue to provide international Disney experiences where the demand is extremely high.
While he did not leave any clues as to where these additional international ships could be, this presentation did make it extremely clear that we should expect to see more international Disney Cruises in the future.
