Fans are praising Disney Cruise Line's new ship, Disney Treasure, after its christening in the New York Harbor Tuesday night.
The ship's maiden voyage from Port Canaveral, Florida, to the Caribbean will be in December.
Disney fans on X and TikTok are hoping to enter one of the boat's customized rooms or the ship itself.
'I would absolutely like to gatekeep the Disney Treasure, yes,' an X user wrote.
Disney has yet to confirm the price of Disney Treasure's construction, but German builder Meyer Werft told NBC News the ship was worth $1.1 billion.
Several TikTok users have also shared videos featuring sneak peeks of the Disney Treasure, many of which include pictures of the Haunted Mansion Parlor.
Various X users have also been raving about the Haunted Mansion Parlor - one of more than 1,200 rooms inside the ship.

'The Haunted Mansion Parlor aboard the Disney Treasure looks incredible!,' an X user tweeted.
Another person wrote: 'Get ready because the Haunted Mansion Parlor is like NOTHING you have experienced before! Only on #disneytreasure #meitravel.'
At least two X users also mentioned the parlor's 'secret menu,' also dubbed the 'chilling challenge' by an X user.
'You rotate the digital menu vertically to see the "secret" menu and complete the challenge to check out the restless spirits drink,' the Disney fan tweeted.
Multiple X users also wrote highly of the other Disney film-themed rooms and the 'foods and drinks at Skipper Society.'
These #DisneyTreasure room themes are gorgeous. I'm having a hard time choosing between Aladdin and Encanto,' an X user revealed.
Other ship areas X users wrote about include the Grand Hall, the Scat Cat Lounge, and the Skipper Society - a bar inspired by the Jungle Cruise.

TikTokers were just as excited to see Disney doing 'everything absolutely perfectly.'
'Tell me why I'm sobbing over a cruise ship??? This was so beautiful, instant chills,' a commenter wrote.
Marvelous Mouse Travels shared a short tour this morning of the Disney Treasure, which made a few viewers want more sneak peeks.
Despite the joyous comments made by TikTokers, at least two Disney fans were not amazed by the ship's Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah.
'A clean look but incredibly bland; seems like there will eventually be staterooms for families and also older passengers with different themes,' a commenter wrote this morning on a TikTok video.
Another TikToker wrote: 'Is it me or kind of plain? like the mural is nice but otherwise it seems very... basic or just not the same vibe as the older ships.'

The Disney Treasure is 221 feet tall and 1,119 feet long, and it can carry up to 4,000 passengers and 1,555 crew members.
Standard cruise ship features that are on the Disney Treasure are extravagant restaurants, pools, spas and gaming rooms.
The Plaza de Coco restaurant is the first theatrical dining area on a Disney cruise ship dedicated to the 2017 film, 'Coco.'
Disney Treasure passengers looking to enjoy sweet treats may enjoy Jumbeaux's Sweets - an ice cream parlor inspired by Disney's 'Zootopia.'
Other activities ship passengers may enjoy are the 'Avengers: Quantum Encounter' and 'Marvel Celebration of Heroes: Groot Remix' shows, the Palo Steakhouse, and Enchante.
The ship offers seven-night cruises starting at $4,277 for two guests and $6,994 for a family of four, not including tax.
Like Walt Disney World and Disneyland, the prices may be higher if travelers board the ship on Halloween or Christmas.

The Disney Treasure will be on the water while the cruise line is 'going through an unprecedented period of growth,' according to Thomas Mazloum, president of Disney's new experiences portfolio and Disney signature experiences.
'The demand that we're seeing right now for Disney Cruise Line is very strong. We're a premium brand, occupancy is high, and frankly, the business is doing really, really well.'
Disney Cruise Lines also had record revenue and profit in its 2024 fiscal fourth quarter earnings report 2024, according to CNBC.
The report showed the company had a 5 percent increase for the full year to $34.15 billion and a $9.27 billion operating income.
Gavin Doyle, founder of MickeyVisit.com, revealed that he believes Disney's 'innovation in cruising' and 'focus on storytelling' is what sets it apart from other cruise companies.
'They're able to just deliver this level of customer service that does feel like magic.'
Daily Mail has reached out to Disney Cruise Line for comment.
