Disney Cruise Line could be considered married to Port Canaveral as its primary base in Florida, but now it has lined up a new port on the side with an agreement with Port Everglades.
The new deal will see the cruise line begin a 15-year lease as early as October 2023 with options to extend it to up to 30 years. It calls for year-round use of Cruise Terminal 4 for the first two years, and then adding access to a second terminal to be determined down the line.
Port Everglades has never hosted a Disney ship except for emergency docking.
