How many lifeboats are on Magic and Wonder?

• A. 16
• B. 18
• C. 22
• D. 20

Answer: (D)

Emergency safety planning on a cruise ship centers on ensuring every person on board can be evacuated safely in an emergency. Disney Magic and Disney Wonder were equipped with twenty lifeboats each, arranged along the sides of the ship. This setup provides the required total evacuation capacity for guests and crew and distributes lifeboats for quick access during an orderly abandonment. The number reflects the ships’ approved lifesaving equipment configuration for their size and population. The other numbers would not align with the actual lifeboat layout and the safety requirements these ships were designed to meet.
