Meyer Group began the physical transformation of the unfinished Global Dream for Disney Cruise Line at Wismar in August 2023. The project completed the partially built vessel while extensively redesigning it as Disney Adventure.

The technical conversion included modifications intended to facilitate operation on methanol, including engine transformation, additional tanks and modernization of the waste-management system. The exterior was converted to Disney Cruise Line styling with four funnels, yellow lifeboats and Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse stern figures.

Passenger areas were redesigned around seven themed districts: Disney Imagination Garden, Discovery Reef, San Fransokyo Street, Wayfinder Bay, Town Square, Marvel Landing and Toy Story Place. Major attractions installed during completion included the Ironcycle Test Run coaster and Groot Galaxy Spin. The ship floated out at Wismar on April 19, 2025, underwent final outfitting, and was legally handed over to Disney Cruise Line in Bremerhaven on December 13, 2025.

Disney Fantasy underwent an extensive technical and passenger-area refit at Damen Shiprepair Brest following its 2025 European season. The principal efficiency project was replacement of the ship's bulbous bow with a newly fabricated, hydrodynamically optimized structure. Damen also completely blasted the hull and applied a biocide-free, low-friction silicone coating, upgraded propulsion and maneuvering systems, and performed class inspections, maintenance and other technical work.

Passenger-facing changes included a two-level, approximately 2,030-square-foot Fantasy Tower Suite inside the forward funnel, themed to Fantasia and Sorcerer Mickey. A Hercules-inspired Concierge Lounge was introduced, Ramone's Cantina joined the pool-deck dining options, Edge moved to Deck 5, and treatment and thermal facilities in Senses Spa were refurbished. Quiet Cove Pool and its whirlpool were refurbished, and extensive carpet, tile and marble replacement was carried out in guest areas.

The ship returned to passenger service with a westbound transatlantic sailing from Southampton on November 3, 2025.

Disney Magic completed a scheduled two-week dry dock at Seaspan Victoria Shipyards in the federally owned Esquimalt Graving Dock. Reported work consisted of technical maintenance, routine upkeep and cosmetic refreshing ahead of the ship's inaugural Alaska season. No reliable public source documented a major redesign or named new passenger venue.

Disney Wonder arrived at the Esquimalt Graving Dock in Victoria on August 17, 2026, for a scheduled dry-dock and maintenance project during a pause in its Alaska season. The reported scope consists of classification inspections, technical maintenance, general upkeep and refurbishment work. No reliable source had identified major new venues or a substantial passenger-space redesign by the research date.

The ship is scheduled to welcome passengers back in Vancouver on September 7, 2026, for a seven-night Alaska cruise.
