Fifty Staterooms Flooded on Carnival Dream

Around 50 staterooms were flooded on Carnival Dream after a pipe broke in the vessel's fire suppression system on Thursday.

Carnival Dream was on a seven-day cruise in the Caribbean when the problem occurred on Deck 9.

The cruise line was quick to clean up the mess, and the vessel's next cruise will not be affected. The passengers affected will receive a full refund, 50 percent credit on a future cruise and were given the option to fly home.

“Our onboard teams began cleanup immediately related to this clean water from a fire suppression system,” Carnival told Fox News. “We appreciate our guests’ understanding and sincerely apologize for this disruption. We also thank our crew members for their quick action and hard work.”
