Two disney cruise ships engage in epic horn battle.

Posted by: Krysten Swensen June 21, 2022

Disney Cruise

All cruise ships have horns. No matter what cruise ship you sail on, there is a chance you will hear its horn at some point during your voyage. However, when it comes to a Disney cruise, their horns are not your traditional horns. Everything onboard a Disney Cruise Ship is meant to be magical and bring Guests an entirely new cruising experience. From the special dining themes to interactive character experiences, one-of-a-kind rides like the AquaDuck, and shooting off fireworks each evening, a Disney cruise is a truly unforgettable experience. Even the horns are magical and unforgettable.

TikToker Abby (@happilyeverabby) was recently in Castaway Cay — Disney’s private island in the Bahamas — and saw something not many people have had the chance to. Two Disney Cruise ships — the Disney Dream and the Disney Wish — were docked at the island and got into one heck of a horn battle. Abby posted a video of the horns going back and forth, which you can watch below.

As you can hear in the video, the Disney  Dream has a more traditional horn and the Disney  Wish — Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship — has several horns that harmonize. However, fans who watched the video overwhelmingly preferred the horn on the Disney  Dream . The fun horn battle included songs like “Do You Want to Build a Snowman” from  Frozen , “A Pirate’s Life For Me”, “When You Wish Upon a Star” from Pinocchio , and more.

Disney Dream Disney Cruise Line

The Disney  Wish  has just arrived in Florida to prepare for its inaugural sailing to the Bahamas. It joins Disney’s four other cruise ships — the Disney Dream , the Disney  Wonder , the Disney  Magic , and the Disney  Fantasy . The Disney  Wish was supposed to set sail on its maiden voyage earlier this year, but things had to be delayed due to COVID-19 protocols for cruise ships.

Disney Wish

The Disney  Wish will finally set off on its maiden voyage on July 14 and will offer 3 and 4-night trips to the Bahamas from Port Canaveral, Florida. The ship will make its official debut on June 29, when Disney will christen it and livestream the event . Guests who sail on the Disney  Wish during the fall will be able to experience Halloween on the High Seas, and those who sail during the holidays can experience Very Merrytime Cruises.

VIDEO: Horn battle with the Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream cruise ships

On March 25, 2012, as the sun began to set, the new Disney Fantasy cruise ship was on her Inaugural preview cruise and caught up to the Disney Dream at sea, sailing side-by-side. The two sister ships then delighted passengers with a horn battle, sounding a variety of Disney tunes including When You Wish Upon a Star, A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes, and even It’s a Small World. Then the Fantasy sailed by, leaving the Dream to pass behind.

This video was shot from the secluded balcony in the Senses Spa on board the Disney Fantasy, near the captain’s bridge.

Disney Magic vs. Disney Dream Horn Battle

  • March 29, 2012

A Fun Experience

March 16, 2012 After a lovely day at Castaway Cay, the Magic heads home for Port Canaveral. On the way, the Magic passes the Dream on its way to Castaway. A horn battle ensues.

Shot from the Magic, deck 10, port side, by the second funnel. My camera refused to focus at all, but the sound quality is just fine. Personally, as great and fun as the multiple songs on the Dream are, I still prefer the Magic’s horn.

Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream Ship Horn Battle

  • by John Frost
  • March 26, 2012

Disney Dream as seen from the Disney Fantasy

Toward the top of the list of the highlights of my trip on the Disney Fantasy preview cruise, and there were many, were the three close encounters the Fantasy had with its sister ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, The Disney Dream. All three encounters included the two ships talking to each other via the ship horn, but the visit between the two ships at Castaway Cay was the closest and loudest.

The Fantasy was docked at Castaway Cay and the Dream made a special trip just to come show off. After the horn battle the Dream pivoted in the water just a couple hundred yards off the bow of the Fantasy and then took off back to its next destination. Many crew members on the Fantasy had either worked on the Dream or have friends there, so there was a special feeling on deck with cast members and guests all enjoying the show together.

Coming soon, two videos of the fireworks aboard the Disney Dream as seen from the Disney Fantasy – the very first time ever for that and quite possible the only time for the foreseeable future.

VIDEO: Wait Until You Hear the Horn on Disney Cruise Line’s Newest Ship the Wish

by Melissa Roden · June 10, 2022

disney cruise ship horn battle

We’ve got a fabulous video to share with you.  If you’ve been following along with MickeyBlog you’ll know that the Disney Wish is currently making its way to Port Canaveral to start transporting guests to the Bahamas later this Summer.  A handful of awesome press events are planned for the month ahead to give Disney fans a first look at the newest ship in the fleet. But, before then, we have something to tide you over (no pun intended.)  

A video has recently emerged of Disney Wish blowing it’s horn and as you would imagine, because it is a Disney ship, it is nothing short of magical!

As you can hear from the footage above, the songs played include: 

  • “A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes” from  Cinderella
  • “Be Our Guest” from  Beauty and the Beast
  • “Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee (An Actor’s Life for Me.)” from Pinocchio
  • “It’s a small world…” 
  • “Yo, Ho! (A Pirates Life for Me.)”

As the caption for the video tells us, this footage was captured in Germany yesterday (June 9, 2022.)

Found this on you tube, it is a cruise ship horn battle between a Carnival Cruise Ship and a Walt Disney Cruise Ship.

The first horn you will hear is the Disney Ship (where the footage is being taken from).

Keep listening to the whole clip (1 minute) its quite cleaver. Who do you think wins the battle with the best horn?

They are neat to watch,

even better if you are standing right under the horn on the top deck.

Heres another with Oriana and QM2....

Here is another video of OV 1 & OV 2 (Pacific Jewel) having a Horn Battle:

Wowwww! That sent shivers up my spine. Wonderful sound - that's given me a fix for the day! :D:D:D

Damn, I wish I could get broadband, I can't view any clips on this dial up. I will have to go to daughters place and have a look. I love the fog horns. The Sapphire had to put the fog horn on coming back from Oz to Auckland. Our cabin was on the top deck, with balcony, and it was great, sitting out there, sailing through the fog listening to it. There were so many complaints around the ship from some passengers about it. It's there for a reason for goodness sake, but it really made you feel like you were on a ship, just like in the old films.

In 2004, we flew over and joined QM2 for her maiden voyage into the Med.

That was an amazing voyage for horn blowing. Sea tradition calls for other ships to greet a new ship on the sea as they pass each other , and as we were in many ports with many other ships, sail outs were awesome.

cazz0069

I remember trying to make sure i was always filming when the horn went off on our sailaway from Sydney Harbour, and all 3 times all you end hearing is me screaming over the top of the horn as it scared the bejesus out of me! Big butch thing i am :p

Haha Jas, I actually jump, just about out of my skin, if I am not prepared for it. Same with fireworks. :D

Tell me about it, I get shivers everytime I watch it, strange how you react to things eh ....

Any "Maritime experts" out there who could tell us

when ships are permitted/required to blast the horn?

I know when a ship is getting underway,

they give 3 blasts,

and as mentioned above use it in fog.

I always wait for it as we leave a port ,

but sometimes it does not happen.

I wish I could put that sound on my mobile when it rings.:D

Hehehe Rockie - I think you'd cause a few heart attacks.!;) But I have to agree - it's a wonderful sound.

The three blasts is a signal that they are backing into the active sea-lane or channel. It is not usually give when moving forward from a berth.

Any "Maritime experts" out there who could tell us when ships are permitted/required to blast the horn?   I know when a ship is getting underway, they give 3 blasts, and as mentioned above use it in fog.   I always wait for it as we leave a port , but sometimes it does not happen.

The 3 blasts mean the vessel is operating its propulsion astern. Your only allowed to use your horn when operating in conditions with restricted visibility, overtaking another vessel, nearing a narrow channel, when manouvering or when unclear of another vessel intention.

Enjoy !!!!!!

How did they get those pictures?

' src=

Crew members were in boats. I saw them on the Fantasy

' src=

Oh, wow! What an awesome treat for those cruisers! At midnight on New Year’s Eve while on the Wonder, we saw fireworks in the distance in a few directions. I had the wild thought that the rest of the family might be close.

' src=

I so wish I could have been there for that!!

' src=

We were on the Fantasy and saw the boat with the photographer go out to capture the moment. Great pictures! There were a few horn greetings between the ships. My iPhone didn’t get them all.

' src=

That would have truly been Magical. I hope someone can provide the horn battle. I was really surprised watching the departure from Port Canaveral the first time they played the new “Do you want to build a snowman” horn.

' src=

Thanks for posting! This a Disney Cruise Junkies dream photo op!

Has this ever happened for? Even with the Wonder in Nassau all four ships would have been within at least 60 miles of each other at some point.

' src=

We were on the Dream and Captain Henry said that this was the first time that it has happened. It was something they had been working on for a while.

Found a video on YouTube, Enjoy!

' src=

wow missed it by a few days … DARN.

' src=

Love it!! How neat it would have been to be there and see that!

' src=

Hope they do it next year too, will be on the Fantasy for NYE !!

' src=

The itineraries do not really match up for next year.

I was on the Fanasty, and it was amazing. I now have seen all the ships!

' src=

I was on the dream for that sailing and it was a blast!

I am thinking the 2nd image is on the Fanasty because Toy story 3 was in it and Toy story 3 was on
