Thoughts on the 2027 Pacific Coast Sailing
The addition of a West Coast Member Cruise is exciting news for Disney Vacation Club Members, especially those on the West Coast who have often needed to travel farther for Member Cruise sailings. This itinerary breaks from tradition by offering a 7 night voyage rather than the more common 4 to 5 night Pacific Coast sailings, and adds a two day stay in San Francisco which provides meaningful exploration time in one of America’s most beloved cities.
Catalina Island’s beauty is undeniable and presents a lovely stop, though reactions to Ensenada vary among Members. The extended itinerary feels tailored more toward a meaningful Member experience rather than just a quick port hop.
