Itineraries sail all around Australia from here, calling at Sydney, Melbourne, Darwin and more.
Brisbane is the closest major cruise port to the South Pacific, so there are regular departures to this tropical destination and less days at sea on the way. These cruises visit New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji and beyond. It’s also close to Papua New Guinea, one of the world’s newest cruise destinations that should be on your bucket list. New Zealand is another popular cruise destination, with ships regularly sailing to Auckland, Wellington, Fiordland and Christchurch. If you’re looking for something further afield, try a cruise to Asia, Hawaii or a Transpacific voyage across to the mainland US.

Enjoy spacious suits, exceptional food, free-flowing wines and indulgent spas. Luxury lines to look for include Silversea, Ponant, Seabourn and Crystal Cruises.
Check in times for your cruise will be staggered to cut down on wait times for passengers. The process varies across different cruise lines, but you will be allocated a check in time based on your cabin or given the option to choose a check in slot when you book or through the lines’ app. At a minimum you will need to be at the cruise terminal at least one hour before the ship is scheduled to depart – remember, they won’t wait for you!
There is only one cruise port in Brisbane, so if you are sailing on a round trip cruise then you will return to the same port. If you’re on a one-way cruise, you will depart from Brisbane International Cruise Terminal and then disembark in another city.
If you’re short on time, you can hop on a two- or three-day cruise from Brisbane to get a taste of life onboard. These short cruises may visit one port or just spend time at sea for you to enjoy everything on the ship.

Longer cruises can last from two weeks up to a month and will take you to New Zealand, Asia or on a Transpacific adventure.

Enjoy surf simulators, indoor skydiving tunnels, 100m-high observation pods, bumper cars, video game arcades and world-class entertainment featuring virtual reality. There will also be multiple places to dine, ranging from casual cafes and buffets to chic fine dining, as well as buzzy bars and nightclubs.
Yeehah! You could meet a ship full of new boot scooting buddies on a country music themed cruise from Brisbane. Other themed cruises cover Australian music, comedy, eras like the 80s and 90s, or sporting events. These cruises tend to be short, just a few days at most, and feature lots of themed activities and entertainment on board. Longer cruises can be focused on food and wine, wildlife or cultural encounters.
Yes, there are 900 parking spots available inside the grounds of the Brisbane International Cruise Terminal. These are all paid parking spots managed by Wilson Parking and you must book online before you travel.

Disney Cruise Guest Held Hostage Onboard by Cast Members
in Disney Cruise Line
A Disney Cruise Line guest recently claimed that cast members held her hostage onboard, preventing her from embarking on a paid port excursion. One of the involved Disney Cruise ship employees shared their story on social media.
Related: Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship Crashes After Pilot Fails to Dock
Disney Cruise Line operates five ships: Disney Wish, Disney Wonder, Disney Fantasy, Disney Dream, and Disney Magic. Its next vessel, Disney Treasure, sets sail in December 2024. Two more, Disney Adventure and Disney Destiny, are scheduled to take maiden voyages in 2025 and 2026.
Mickey Mouse and his friends set sail worldwide, embarking from Auckland, New Zealand; Barcelona, Spain; Brisbane, Australia; Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy; Copenhagen, Denmark; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Galveston, Texas; Honolulu, Hawai’i; Melbourne, Australia; New Orleans, Louisiana; New York City; Port Canaveral, Florida; San Diego, California; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Southampton, England; Sydney, Australia; and Vancouver, Canada. Disney Adventure will embark on new journeys from ports throughout Asia.
A Disney Cruise is unforgettable, whether you’re on a once-in-a-lifetime journey through Alaska or a relaxing visit to one of Disney’s private islands, Disney Castaway Cay or Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
Unfortunately, one Disney Cruise Line guest claimed that cast members onboard made her vacation infamously memorable. However, the Disney cast members who were involved told a different story.
Former Walt Disney World Resort cast member Kelsey Conkling (@disneywithkels on TikTok ) recently re-enacted an interaction a Disney Cruise Line employee shared with her. The guest was frustrated that the captain canceled a Grand Cayman port visit due to inclement weather in the area. She demanded to know how she could still go on her planned excursion and felt held hostage onboard.
@disneywithkels Lost at sea?…Or lost in delusion? #disneycruise #disneycruiseline #disneyworld #disneyparks #disneyland #disneyvacation #stacyonacruise #stacyatdisneyworld #disneykaren #karensofdisney #karen #karensgoingwild #disneytips #disneytipsandtricks #disneyhacks #disneymom #momsofdisney #cruise ♬ original sound – Kelsey Conkling
“Because everyone has to stay on the ship, then all of the excursions are canceled, and you will be issued a full refund,” the Disney cast member reassured the guest.
“No, I don’t accept that,” the guest responded. “… That’s not going to work for me.”
In addition to a full refund, the Disney cast member offered the guest an onboard credit that she could use to purchase snacks or merchandise. The guest refused.
“I would like to go on the excursion I paid for,” she said.
“That’s the one thing I cannot do for you,” the Disney Cruise Line employee replied. “I can’t control the weather or how the sea behaves. So sorry.”
The exasperated guest walked away, yelling that she “thought this place was supposed to be about magic.”
“Guess she didn’t want those credits,” the cast member quipped.
While a canceled excursion can be frustrating, Disney Cruise Line cast members must make difficult calls to protect guest safety during harsh weather conditions. Visit Guest Services onboard with any questions about changes to your itinerary–but remember, they can’t control the ocean!
