Child and father rescued after a fall overboard from the Disney Dream off Fort Lauderdale
A girl fell overboard from the Disney Dream off Fort Lauderdale and her father jumped in after her. The crew returned both to the ship within minutes.
ABC7 reported that on Sunday, June 29, 2025, a young girl fell overboard from the Disney Dream off Fort Lauderdale, near the end of a four-night Bahamas cruise, and her father jumped in after her. The report said the crew returned both guests to the ship within minutes.
In an overboard case, the questions usually include the railing, the area the passenger fell from, supervision, and how quickly the crew responded. Disney's contract sends injury cases to Brevard County or the federal court in Orlando, not Miami.
