The Gift of Disney Cruise Line at Jewel
Disney Adventure: Now Open for Booking!
You can book your cruise on Klook or on Pelago (bonus 10,000 KrisFlyer miles for a limited time)!
From 8 November 2024 till 2 January 2025, immerse yourself in the magic of Disney as Jewel Changi Airport unveils the wonders of Disney Adventure, with whimsical touches and mini experiences highlighting the wonders of a Disney cruise vacation.
Meet Captain Mickey at Jewel
Perhaps the most exciting experience is the Disney Cruise Line Meet and Greet at Jewel Changi Airport, and because this is free, it’s very popular. During each Meet and Greet, you can meet a combination of characters, including Captain Mickey, Captain Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy.
How to Meet Captain Mickey and Friends
Meet & Greet passes are distributed 30 minutes before each session, on a first-come-first-served basis. No purchase necessary to participate.
Location: Level 2 West Gateway Garden (between Dyson and Tim Ho Wan)
Only on 16, 17, 23, 24 November, 7, 8, 9, 10 December 2024
Timeslots: 11AM, 1PM, 3:30PM, 6PM, 7:30PM
Each pass is good for a group of up to four guests. Although you will only get one photo per group, the cast members will just take multiple shots on burst so that you can pick out your favourite photos.
Disney Adventure at Jewel’s Canopy Park
Wander around Jewel’s Canopy Park and discover gifts from Captain Mickey around the Park’s gardens, each one inspired by a distinct area onboard the Disney Adventure.
For the full experience, you will need tickets to multiple Canopy Park attractions: Bouncing Net, Hedge Maze, and Mirror Maze. The 3-in-1 package on Pelago offers these attractions as a bundle, or you can buy the Canopy Park Bundle 2 and Bundle 4 on-site at Jewel. These packages will already include the base admission to Canopy Park.
For the essential Adventure Quest experience, you just need the Canopy Park + Hedge Maze combo. You can still collect the stamps, but will skip the Toy Story Place experience within Bouncing Net, and the Frozen-themed maze and photo backdrop at the end of the Mirror Maze. You can get the ‘Hedge Maze with Complimentary Canopy Park’ tickets from Pelago; or the ‘Hedge Maze + Free Canopy Park’ from Klook that is also available on-site at Jewel.
Start your Adventure Quest at the Hedge Maze, where you will collect your Stamp Leaflet and the first stamp.
Now, imagine the cruise ship is like a Disney theme park, with several themed areas to explore throughout the cruise. Disney Imagination Garden is one of them, and it’s uniquely designed like a park where guests can enjoy beautiful gardens, quick bites, and live performances. Some Verandah-class staterooms will offer a private balcony overlooking into this charming area.
Inspired by Disney Imagination Garden, the Hedge Maze has Mickey Mouse-shaped topiaries, as well as a Sorcerer Mickey statue. On the cruise ship itself, Sorcerer Mickey will be sculpted as a topiary.
Before heading into the Canopy Park, head to the exit of the Mirror Maze for your second stamp. The Town Square zone is inspired by Disney’s iconic princesses and heroines, with the Royal Court being one of the key highlights with stunning stained-glass-style murals on the ceiling. Guests can also enjoy Broadway-style shows at the Walt Disney Theatre in this zone.
Time to head inside Canopy Park to discover more presents from Captain Mickey!
Disney Discovery Reef is another open-air area filled with numerous dining options. With characters and scenes from The Little Mermaid, Finding Nemo, Lilo & Stitch and Luca, you can unwind in this enchanting, relaxing space.
Right above Disney Discover Reef is Marvel Landing, an exciting world where you can meet your heroes. This area also features three rides: Groot Galaxy Spin (Spinner), Pym Quantum Racers (Go Karts Track) and Ironcycle Test Run – the longest roller coaster at sea!
While you’re exploring Disney Adventure installations at Canopy Park, don’t forget to take breaks and marvel at the iconic Rain Vortex from the exclusive high viewpoints.
San Fransokyo Street will be an indoor area inspired by Big Hero 6. Designed to be a bustling entertainment area, you can enjoy games and activities, including two speakeasy clubs (for tweens and teens) hidden away among the shops. A big video game arcade and the Baymax cinemas here will offer endless fun for the family.
Toy Story Place will offer splashes of fun at the ship’s upper decks, with a variety of pools, slides and water play areas. You can also grab ice cream from the Wheezy’s Freezies (popular across Disney’s cruise ships!), and quick bites from Pizza Planet (from Toy Story!)
At Canopy Park’s Bouncing Net, giant beach balls with designs inspired by Toy Story characters and motifs allude to all the potential fun onboard the Disney Adventure.
Located at the aft deck, or back of the ship, to offer stunning views of the sea, Wayfinder Bay will feature tiered deck seating and sparkling pools where you can enjoy live stage performances, including Moana: Call of the Sea.
The Adventure Quest concludes at Canopy Park’s Petal Garden, with a scale replica of the ship’s iconic funnel, together with a giant Life Buoy and interactive portholes to play with.
After collecting all 7 stamps at Canopy Park, head to the Redemption Counter at Jewel’s Basement 2 for the final stamp, along with the reward for completing the Adventure Quest: A high-quality poster of Disney Adventure, showcasing the characters you can meet onboard!
Disney Adventure: A Short History
Originally named Global Dream, this vessel was acquired by Disney Cruise Line in 2022 amidst the challenges faced by Dream Cruises and Resorts World Hong Kong. The ship was already being built, and was sold at a bargain price of 40 million euros, down from its original value of 1.8 billion euros. It was originally designed to be the largest cruise ship in the world, with a capacity of up to 9,000 guests and 2,200 crew.
The acquisition of Global Dream marked a significant milestone for Disney Cruise Line, expanding its fleet into a new market with Disney Adventure homeported in Singapore. It is also the largest ship in the fleet, with 20 decks.
The original ship was designed with numerous “world’s first” facilities and attractions, plus casinos that Resorts World Cruises are known for. After buying over the ship, Disney retooled most of the interior spaces and reduced its capacity to 6,000 guests. While there will be no gaming venues on this cruise ship, it will retain much of its theme park attractions and entertainment facilities. Reworked with Disney theming and storytelling, it will transform into a floating “theme park” at sea, delivering the ultimate Disney sailing experience in Asia.
Marvel Landing
The Adventure begins in December 2025
Disney Adventure will set sail on its 3-night maiden voyage on 15 December 2025, with other 5-night special holiday sailings for Christmas and New Year 2026. 3-night and 4-night sailings will be the norm for Disney Adventure’s Magic at Sea itineraries, with no shore excursions or stops, as the ship will depart and return to Singapore.
