A harrowing incident aboard a Disney Cruise Line ship turned into a stunning sea rescue when a child fell overboard, and her father dove in after her.
On June 29, as the Disney Dream returned to Fort Lauderdale from a four-night Bahamian voyage, including a stop at Disney’s Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, the ship’s intercom broadcast the urgent “Mr. M.O.B.” (man overboard) code, spurring immediate action, as first reported by The Street.
The Disney Dream’s crew swiftly rescued both guests from the water, a Disney Cruise Line spokesperson told USA TODAY. “We applaud our crew’s exceptional expertise and rapid response, which safely returned both guests to the ship in minutes. Our commitment to guest safety and well-being remains paramount, and this incident underscores the strength of our safety measures.” 📸 Noe Ayala
