@RobertIger & other advertisers: Will you be suspending advertising on Facebook & Instagram like you did with X? Disney is currently running ~300 ads for Disneyland and Disney World on Meta."

FWIW:

... the trip advertised is not one that is, or was, led by Disney. It was, instead, what is known as a "Port Adventure." These are activities recommended by Disney that can be found, for extra cost, when docked at various ports of call on Disney Cruises.

"Port Adventures are not operated by Disney Cruise Line and are carefully selected to provide the best available experiences ashore," according to a list of excursions posted to The Disney Cruise Line Blog. This document also included "Captain Nautica's Snorkeling Expedition" as an option.

Third, the website from which the viral images were taken is also unaffiliated with Disney. It is one of many websites whose goal is, or was, to drive people interested in Disney Cruises to travel agents. In April 2021, when this claim first went viral, Disney told The Associated Press that:

The island, as well as another location, were included in the description of a third-party tour so that participants could identify the areas where snorkeling would be available [...] The tour had no connection to the island itself and Disney has never had plans involving the island.

The claim is based on a cascade of bad-faith arguments.

From May 2023:

...
There are no credible sources saying that Disney Cruise Line's vessels make stops, or have ever stopped, at Little St. James.

In April 2022, the Associated Press reported that Disney denied claims its cruises made stops at Epstein's private island, or had any affiliation with it.

"The island, as well as another location, were included in the description of a third-party tour so that participants could identify the areas where snorkeling would be available," a statement from Disney read. "The tour had no connection to the island itself and Disney has never had plans involving the island."

NPR reported this month that Little St. James and the neighboring Great St. James—also previously owned by Epstein—were purchased by financier Stephen Deckoff for $60 million through his SD Investments firm. According to the outlet, plans are afoot to turn the islands into a resort destination.

There is more reporting on the issue and you can find it if you are interested. Folks mad at Disney for woke bullshit are reviving an old propaganda campaign. IMO, it undermines legitimate grievances when folks do this.
