Disney Adventure cruise cancelled after guests had been onboard for more than a day

May 12, 2026

Disney’s newest cruise ship is sailing again after a mechanical issue unexpectedly resulted in the entertainment company cancelling the previous voyage.

Guests had already boarded the Disney Adventure in Singapore on May 7, reports USA Today, when the cruise was called off and they were asked to disembark.

They had been aboard for 26 hours, reports the New York Post .

Canadian Travel News reports that several travellers, “some of whom had flown in from Australia and other countries” said this was their second cancelled Disney booking, “raising doubts about whether they would rebook at all.”

The travel news site didn’t mention if Canadians were affected by the cancellation. National Post has reached out to Disney to query if any Canadians were on board but has yet to receive a response.

The 208,000-gross-ton vessel is the largest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet and entered service in March 2026, says Canadian Travel News. It has space for up to 6,700 passengers and has seven themed zones.

The ship is “central to Disney’s expansion across Asia.” Its year-round home port is Singapore, marking the ship that the first time Disney Cruise Line has based permanently outside the United States.

The passengers were offered a full refund of their cruise fares, as well as unused, prepaid incidentals like photo packages. They were also offered 50 per cent off a future sailing, complimentary hotel accommodations for the cancellation day, May 7, reimbursement for hotel and flight changes and up to US$500 coverage for incidentals. Disney made additional assistance available on a case-by-case basis.

The Disney Adventure made its maiden voyage from its home port in Singapore on March 10, reports Fox News . The ship departed as scheduled just days after the cancellation, after the mechanical issue was resolved. The next sailing was on May 11.

A British Columbia judge has sentenced a fraudster to two years less a day of house arrest for bilking an “extremely vulnerable” client out of $155,800 that he frittered away on gambling. Kenneth David Derksen, a former consultant at Investors Group Financial Services Inc., pleaded guilty last year to fraud over $5,000 for sending the money to himself in e-transfers from the accounts of a client, John Boellaard, who was out of the country, and at some points hospitalized in Thailand. Derksen sent himself the money in amounts between $300 and $3,000, from his client’s retirement and...

“Leak” once had a singular meaning: danger, even death, as a ship floundered, water rushing in. By the mid-nineteenth century, the word caught up with politics, signalling a different kind of peril: the seepage of government secrets through strategic disclosures by officials or whistleblowers. Key points Breaches of confidentiality are often the source of media-reported government scandals Leaks may not always be true or credible, and the rush to publish stories can overwhelm verification efforts Journalistic best practice is to remain skeptical, consider witness credibility, and...
