The flexibility and mobility of Disney Cruise Line allow us to offer guests a new way to explore other parts of the world while enjoying a world-class cruise experience. Disney Cruise Line is a model for the way we are expanding our family vacation business worldwide by offering new experiences the whole family can enjoy.

At Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, we are using emerging technologies to entertain and connect with people all over the world, whether they are guests in our theme parks or at home thousands of miles away.

We know that when guests are familiar with Disney stories and characters they will enjoy the park even more, and want to come back again.

Successfully adding the popular characters from the Pirates of the Caribbean films with the mythology of our classic attraction is an example of Disney synergy and Walt Disney Imagineering at its finest. These additions will result in an exciting new chapter for the attraction and an unforgettable experience for our guests, giving them another reason to come and be a part of our continuing 50th anniversary celebration.

If you look at fantasy for most people, they could go to Nepal. They could do it. But for most people, it will remain a fantasy.

Given the explosive growth of the global travel and tourism market, the United States could and should be doing even better.
