Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Disney-Wish

On the evening of August 26, 2025, the guests aboard the 'Disney Wish' experienced a moment of panic shortly after the vessel departed from Nassau, Bahamas. At approximately 8:00 p.m., an emergency alert signaling a 'man overboard' went out across the ship, sending crew members into action. The cruise ship reduced its speed as frantic search and rescue operations commenced, with life rings tossed over the port side and at least two rescue boats being deployed. In a display of caution, all guests were instructed to report to their designated muster stations to facilitate a thorough headcount and gather potential witnesses to the incident. Thankfully, all passengers were accounted for, but they were required to remain at their assembly locations until the ship was declared safe. The captain addressed guests the following morning, reassured them of their safety, and clarified that the alarming situation was likely caused by a large piece of debris in the water mistaken for a human. As a gesture of goodwill for the disruption to their evening, each guest received a $150 credit applied to their onboard accounts.

On April 9, 2022, at approximately 3:00 PM, a Dutch Coast Guard SAR helicopter executed a critical medical evacuation from the cruise ship 'Disney Wish,' which was navigating 40 kilometers north of Ameland. An individual on board required immediate medical assistance, prompting the crew to establish contact with the Dutch Coast Guard in Den Helder. Following a swift assessment, the decision was made to airlift the patient for treatment. Leaving Eemshaven on March 30 for testing operations, the cruise vessel was traveling without any passengers at the time of the incident. The helicopter successfully landed at the Medical Center in Leeuwarden at 5:15 PM, where the patient received timely care.
