The Global class is a class of cruise ships constructed by the German shipbuilder MV Werften for Genting Hong Kong. With Genting’s bankruptcy in 2022, the future of the Global class was in doubt.[7] On November 16, 2022, Disney Cruise Line confirmed it acquired the unfinished Global Dream.[1][8] The second unfinished ship has been scrapped.
