Cruise ship rescued man struggling in the water off Cuba
The 'Disney Dream' rescued a man in the water off the coast of Cuba in the Caribbean on Jan 4, 2023. The man was spotted struggling in the water with a surfboard, and the ship had to divert course to investigate while sailing between the cruise line’s private island of Castaway Cay in the Bahamas and Cozumel. The crew launched a tender boat, and the 29-year-old male was safely pulled aboard and brought to the cruise ship. The Cuban Coast Guard later picked up the man from the 'Disney cruise', and he was taken back to the mainland. The 'Disney Dream' was sailing a five-night Caribbean itinerary that departed Miami on Jan 2. The ship is scheduled to arrive in Cozumel on Jan 5. The Cuban authorities also discovered an abandoned makeshift barge or boat, which the man in question may or may not have come from.

Medevac in Brest
On Sep 20, 2020, in the harbour of Brest, the CROSS Corsen coordinated the medical evacuation of a technician from the "Disney Dream" at the CIB Brest Shipyard. A Dragon 29 Civil Security helicopter dropped off a medical team from the army health service at 1 p.m. Then it transported the technician, injured at the legs, to the regional university hospital of Brest, where he was taken care of at 2:40 p.m.
Tropical storm caused changes of itineraries
The Sept. 2 sailing of the "Disney Dream" will be delayed until Sept. 4 and shortened a two-night cruise. A planned stop in Disney's private island, Castaway Cay, on Sep 5 was dependent on the weather.
