The Disney Magic and Disney Wonder started it all, and they're closing in on 30. There are five newer, bigger, flashier ships have joined the fleet since. Question: Do the originals still hold up, or are they coasting on nostalgia? The BIG question: Can you have a good cruise on these older ships? We put them on trial this episode, the case for "old and tired," the case for "classic and charming," and a verdict by the end. The Disney Magic launched in 1998, the Disney Wonder in 1999, both are smaller than the Dream and Wish-class. Plus, where these two ships go that the big ships can't, and what's ahead when both hit dry dock in 2026.
