For the first time, all four Disney Cruise Line ships received prefects scores of 100 on The Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP). The VSP is a program ran by the Centers of Disease Control (CDC) in an effort to assist the ship industry to “prevent and control the control the introduction, transmission, and spread of gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses on cruise ships. ”
During biannually and unannounced inspections, inspectors inspect these eight major areas on ships:
- Medical facilities
- Potable water systems
- Swimming pools and whirlpools spas
- Galleys and dining rooms
- Child activity enters
- Hotel accommodations
- Ventilation systems
- Common areas
Within these eight areas, inspectors are looking at everything from ensuring the proper filtration and disinfection procedures are being used in the swimming pools and whirlpools while all ventilation systems are checked for proper maintenance and cleanings.
