A family traveling on a Disney cruise ship in the Bahamas says that they were forced to end their vacation early after being told their infant daughter was too young to be on board.
On Dec. 30, Dave Berg boarded Disney's Wonder in Miami for a five-night cruise along with 30 other family members, including his four-month-old granddaughter, reports Naples News. The family cruise was honoring the bucket-list wishes of Berg’s ailing mother-in-law.
Two days later, his granddaughter began spitting up so the child's mother, Jennifer Moak, took her to the ship’s doctor, where the physician reportedly gave the infant medicine for seasickness. Just hours after the medical visit, Moak says they received a phone call from the doctor requesting to do a checkup on the baby. But instead of a checkup, the family received some distressing news.
“He said because of her age, she wasn’t supposed to be on the ship and that they would be — I think the word that he used was ‘terminating’ our stay on the ship,” Moak told the Naples News.
