All of Disney Cruise Line's Mediterranean voyages in 2013 will be on Disney Magic, an 83,000-GRT ship with 877 staterooms.

Like the cruise line's other ships, Disney Magic has a family emphasis, with a full deck devoted to children's activities. You'll also find plenty of familiar Disney themes on board, such as the "Pirate Cay" main dining room, "Pluto's Dog House," "Pinocchio's Pizzeria," and a "Goofy's Galley" quick-service eatery.
