Mickey Mouse awaiting his fate in the Disney Imagination Lounge (he and his costume would take up three seats, and he is not worth three people)

uhh

As a sailor I gotta say this is so many levels fucked up, I can barely believe this is real.

@beachedseafarer, @aber-flyingtiger, what do you think?

I highly doubt this is true- because everyone and anyone on board may be required to wear an immersion suit or lifejacket, and you can’t necessarily do that in costume.

Plus Disney has no right to override SOLAS or USCG requirements.

Not a sailor but I've taken quite a few survival classes and the one thing I've learned that in a disaster saving human life is paramount. Staying in character so Goofy can wash up on a beach in costume is ridiculous.

Yeah, this sounds completely made up. And trying to avoid kids being traumatised by avoiding the costumes bobbing up is futile. They will be on a sinking ship, they’re probably going to be somewhat distressed either way.

Utter bullshit but I choose to believe this anyway because it's funny.

Agreed. And to be fair, Disney Cruise Lines does have some weird policies from what I’ve heard.

British patrol boats out to sea to patrol the English Channel.

@aber-flyingtiger A relative of yours? He looks a bit like you.

Ah yes, I remember this post.

As far as I know he’s not an ancestor of mine, just happens to look like me.

It must be that shared Sea Dog look. :)

I’ll take that, even if I am more of a river rat these days.
