RUMOR – Disney Cruise Line Acquiring Second Island in the Bahamas

With Disney announcing three new cruise ships, could they be looking at acquiring a second private island?

A Naussau newspaper has confirmed that Disney Cruise Lines has expressed interest in a property called Lighthouse Cay (which is now off the market.)

From Tribune 242…

DISNEY Cruise Lines does have an interest in furthering its investments in the Bahamas, according to the company’s spokeswoman, Kim Prunty, who yesterday responded to speculation and concern over the sale and development of Lighthouse Point, Eleuthera.

In a statement to The Tribune yesterday, Mrs Prunty confirmed the cruise line’s interest in the Bahamas, but did not name any specific site or property shortlisted for acquisition and development.

Disney Cruise Lines has recently been at the centre of speculation, with several sources on Eleuthera naming the company as the group behind the potential acquisition and development of the Lighthouse Point site.

Disney Cruise Line currently has a 99 year lease on Castaway Cay, which is still largely undeveloped.

Clearly, with three new ships on the way, Disney will have to expand its offerings. Stay tuned to The Kingdom Insider for more information on Disney’s possible plans for a second island as we hear them.

    I’m all for Disney launching more cruise ships and acquiring another island, but maybe this one should be developed a bit more? Pirates Of The Caribbean fans would probably love a real-life Port Royal and Tortuga they could sail to, as well as shop and dine in.

Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony. 500 years later, those same monsters returned and lone warrior, Raya, tracked down the last dragon 🐉 in order to finally stop the Druun for good.

✨Raya has inspired kids of all ages and is back for meet and greets during the Lunar New Year Festival! You can find her at Redwood Creek Challenge at Disney California Adventure, now through Feb 15. 

On your way to meet Raya, you will be awestruck with wonder and delight as you walk through a grove of colorful Chinese lanterns 🏮 that light the pathway to the princess herself!

🤟🏼🎸🎤 Rock the Universe 🎤🎸🤟🏼 We got a chance to check out Florida’s biggest Christian music festival right here at @universalorlando last night. This two day event requires special tickets starting at $79.99 to enjoy 1-park from 4:00pm - 1:00am on one of the two nights. To enjoy both nights tickets start at $119.99 and go up to $135.99 for 2-park or 3-park privileges. The event is filled with faith & fun showcasing Christian music’s biggest stars on the Music Plaza Stage & in the Coca-Cola FanZone as well as exclusive merchandise and autograph sessions. Select attractions and dining outlets are open all evening. For the 1-park one night ticket I had, the following attractions were open: Revenge of The Mummy, TRANSFORMERS: The Ride-3D, Despicable Me Minion Mayhem and Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. We also had to take advantage of the lighter crowd in Finnegan’s for a quick dinner ☘️ The event is typically Friday & Saturday with a Sunday Morning Worship Service (admission is included with any RTU ticket, but this was at capacity). It’s also important to note that Express Passes are available with these tickets starting at $24.99 and going up to $34.99 for unlimited. The majority of the crowd is made up with youth groups from around the country, but they are with young pastors and their families. If you are interested in attending in 2024 the dates are January 26th & January 27th 📆 This was their 25th year! Have you ever been to this event?
