For 2012, the Disney Wonder is sailing to Mexico, Hawaii and Alaska on the West Coast, while the Disney Magic is sailing from New York and Galveston, Texas to destinations up and down the East Coast and Caribbean. Disney Cruise announced the 2013 schedule, departing quite a bit from the 2012 destinations.
Disney Wonder
The Disney Wonder, for 2012 is currently sailing on the West Coast to Mexico and Alaska, will continue part of that itinerary for 2013 (Alaska), with a few major changes:

These Alaska Disney Cruises will set sail weekly starting on May 27, 2013. The last cruise of the summer will set sail September 2, 2013.
