Two Disney Cruise Line passengers were rescued from the water over the weekend. Overboard detection systems are designed for those very instances.

Two guests, said to be a father and his young daughter, have been rescued by crew after going into the water while onboard the Disney Dream cruise ship as it returned from a voyage around the Bahamas.

The child and dad were rescued, but between 2009 and 2019, there were 212 incidents of crew or passengers going overboard on cruise ships; 48 were rescued.
