As Disney Cruise Line gears up with its first new ship sailing from Port Canaveral in more than a decade, the port is already surging ahead of its expected budget nine months into the fiscal year.
Disney Wish is set to have its christening at the port Wednesday, and begin sailing with customers on July 14. That begin date for sailing is actually six weeks beyond what the port had originally budgeted, and cruise revenue through May is actually behind plan.
But revenue from cruise parking is booming along with increased revenue from cargo and recreation.
