Well I had Mulan, Tiana, Snowwhite, Ariel, Cinderella and Rapunzel on the Magic last week so not exactly the same mix and I've been told for my August Iceland cruise Merida should be there as wellWhen you look at the official Disney Princess brand where Merida is the last addition to, Mulan is part of it. So is Pocahontas. The term 'princess' in the brand is not used as a title. Belle didnt get married to the prince on screen, till 2017. So did she have a princess title? It is more about a feminine lead who has to overcome hardships.
Merida has joined the British Isles cruises, according to old navigators.
But yeah, I have said it before, it is a shame that Disney only sticks to the same characters on every ship. Let them rotate, have 1 or 2 classic princesses, 1 or 2 from Renaissance and 1 or 2 from the new era. You can change it per season.
I guess that at a certain point a survey was done and Disney sticks to the result, no matter if it is outdated. Similar to cruise gifts. At a certain point someone said 'I like a slingbag' and they will rather die than change it.
