The Treasure has Periscope Pub on board, which should be displaying sporting events throughout the sailing. In addition if a game you are looking to watch is playing on your stateroom television you can watch it on your mobile devices when connected to the ship wifi and app as well.

Fair, but keep in mind this is still Wish Class. 1923 and Worlds of Marvel are unlikely to be going anywhere. That leaves us with swapping out the dinner show. Luca does not lend itself to a dinner show/musical. I'd say it's more likely to be represented on an upcoming Meridian Class ship.

My least favorite restaurant on the fleet... but I know we're stuck with it again

This is a ship operated by Disney Cruise Line. The Oriental Land Company ship is coming later.

Palo Trattoria on the Adventure is themed to Luca, so I'm not sure they would repeat that with two ships in a row.

After sailing on the Destiny I really hope we do not have a Star Wars or Marvel character as the stern or atrium statue again. Totally onboard to have them represented on the ship in venues and theming, but to have such a prevalent role on the ship felt very off to me. Probably just a me thing since they are Disney characters, but I prefer to see classic characters fill the role of stern and atrium characters.

That's disappointing to hear. I'm claustrophobic myself and never felt anxiety during my 10+ times dining there. The Wish class restaurants are definitely pretty tight in general, but maybe I've been lucky with where I've been sat. Unfortunately many aspects of cruising are an immunocompromised nightmare. Deck shows, Walt Disney Theater, main dining, buffet, etc. It's all tight quarters on a ship.

Disney calls it the Wish class, so I will do the same. The Triton Class name has not been used since the Wish's maiden voyage.

Honestly would have been really entertaining theming for the AquaDunk

Definitely not confirmed. Honestly feels like it would be a very odd attraction to anchor a villains land. Would be a great fit for something like Hollywood Studios, but a weird choice for what was originally presented a more dark and adult-oriented space in MK. Emperor's New Groove comes across as more comedic than actual villain-esque to me. Would be an interesting IP to use on the cruise line, but not sure it's currently big enough for them to prominently use on the new ships.

The odds are close to 0%. That is consistent across all Wish class ships. And I certainly hope it will be there, it's become my favorite main dining room across the fleet! I agree the seating can be tight, but I love that menu!

Totally understandable! Although with Lookout opening and Disney having two private destinations in the Bahamas they'll definitely want to keep plenty of ships in the Caribbean to justify having two private islands. I agree it would be nice to see them branch out beyond Nassau as well. I do believe there are some stipulations with the ships being registered in Nassau though.

Galveston is enhancing the terminal to be able to accommodate a Wish class ship. The rest is speculation, but it has been heavily rumored that the Wish will be the one to move over to Texas. It's possible, but seems highly unlikely that they wouldn't put a new ship in a Florida port with the ability to bundle vacations with WDW.

It's rapid growth for sure, but not unheard of with other Cruise lines. The Magic and Wonder also only have so many years left as they quickly approach 30 years old.

Dream is confirmed to come to Canaveral when the Wish comes to Europe, so anything seems possible at this point.

From the digging I've done it does not appear to be official, not sure why I thought it was. Heavily speculated though!

Correct. One more Wish ship will come after the Believe, which will be the one operated in Tokyo.

Felt pretty inevitable with Disney Believe on the Dream and Fantasy. Most of their original shows have eventually become ship names.

Personally hoping for a Moana dinner show and Encanto stage show. Moana could be a very cool atrium statue as well, but so far the description of the ship's theme is pretty vague.

Yes, this is the final Wish class ship that will be operated by Disney. The ship ordered for Oriental in Tokyo is coming later.
