Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a perspective on a recent news story involving a family of ten, including a pregnant woman, who was removed from a Disney Cruise Line vacation. The situation arose because the woman was twenty-five weeks pregnant, which violates the standard twenty-four week policy maintained by cruise lines for liability reasons. While the family expressed frustration regarding rude treatment and the presence of armed security, the creator suggests the escalation was caused by the family's own behavior. Specifically, the creator notes that a father raised his voice at staff and the family continued to confront employees at the service desk rather than waiting patiently. The creator explains that security in cruise ports often arrives heavily armed as a standard procedure for unknown situations. Ultimately, the creator concludes that while the family likely did not intend to cause trouble, their interactions with staff led to their removal. The creator also commends Disney for refunding the entire group's fares, noting that the cruise line was not obligated to do so.
