A water line break aboard the Carnival cruise ship Carnival Dream had some passengers on the 9th deck fearing the worst as their hallway flooded with water up to ankle high.
Carnival Cruise Line released a statement confirming that 50 staterooms on the Carnival Dream were flooded when a water line broke Thursday evening during a seven-night Caribbean cruise. Carnival said guests staying in the impacted staterooms were able to return to their rooms within 6 hours and the ship continued on its voyage uninterrupted, returning to New Orleans on Sunday as scheduled.
Photos and video of the flood spread fast and wide on social media. However, Carnival said in a statement that “the water main break had no effect on the safe operation of the ship”. Carnival’s full statement on the incident is posted below.
