A video has recently emerged of Disney Wish blowing it’s horn and as you would imagine, because it is a Disney ship, it is nothing short of magical!

As you can hear from the footage above, the songs played include:

Why Cruise Ships Blow Their Horns: Signals, Safety, And Fun!

As a veteran cruiser, I’ve always been curious about why cruise ships blow their horns. I knew that the horns served a practical purpose, but I was also aware that they were used for more playful activities, like horn battles and musical performances. So, I decided to do some research and learn more about the various signals, safety uses, and fun aspects of cruise ship horns.

As it turns out, there’s a lot more to cruise ship horns than meets the eye. These horns play a crucial role in communication, navigation, and safety at sea. From warning other vessels of their presence to signaling their intentions to dock, cruise ship horns are an essential tool for navigating the waters.

But they’re also used for more lighthearted activities, like entertaining passengers and engaging in friendly competitions with other ships. In this article, we’ll explore the different meanings behind cruise ship horns and delve into the fun side of these musical instruments.

So, whether you’re a seasoned cruiser or a curious landlubber, read on to discover the fascinating world of cruise ship horns!

• Cruise ship horns serve multiple functions, including communication with other vessels, navigation signals, warnings, and fog alerts.
• Different horn signals have different meanings and can be combined to convey multiple messages, including emergency alerts and information about the ship’s heading.
• Horn battles are a fun way for two cruise ships to communicate with each other, and Disney Cruise Line is known for having the most musical horns and impressive battles.
• Passengers should be aware of the loudness of cruise ship horns and cover small children’s ears when they sound. It’s also important to understand the various horn signals and their meanings for safety reasons.

Why Cruise Ships Blow Their Horns

I’ve learned that cruise ship horns serve many purposes, such as communicating with other vessels and warning passengers of imminent danger. However, one specific example of why horns are used is to reduce the risk of collision by indicating the ship’s direction.

This is especially important in crowded waterways like the Panama Canal, where multiple vessels are navigating at the same time. The horn’s sound can travel for miles and is a crucial tool for navigation communication.

The design of the horn also plays a significant role in its effectiveness. Cruise ship horns are designed to produce a loud and clear sound that can be heard up to two nautical miles away in foggy conditions. This is important for safety reasons, as it allows other vessels to determine the location and direction of the ship.

The number and placement of horns on a cruise ship will vary depending on the ship’s design, but they are an essential tool for safe navigation at sea.

Different Horn Signals

Understanding the meanings of various horn signals is crucial for any maritime traveler. It’s not just about being able to impress fellow passengers with your knowledge, it’s about safety and etiquette. Different signals are used to convey different messages, and it’s important to know what each one means in order to avoid collisions and other potential dangers.

Here’s a table that outlines some common horn signals and their meanings:

Knowing these signals and using them appropriately is essential for safe maritime travel. It’s also important to remember horn etiquette – don’t use your horn unnecessarily, and never use it to intimidate or show off. By following these guidelines, we can all enjoy a safe and respectful journey on the high seas.

Safety and Emergency Uses

In case of an emergency, it’s important to know the different horn signals used in maritime travel to ensure the safety of all passengers and crew.

Cruise ships have specific communication protocols to convey different types of emergency situations. The ship’s horn is used to warn passengers of imminent danger, such as a fire or a collision with another vessel. The signal for this emergency is seven short blasts followed by one long blast. This signal means that all passengers should assemble at their designated muster stations for evacuation procedures.

In addition to the emergency signal, cruise ships also use the horn to communicate other important safety information. For example, the signal for a man overboard is three long blasts, which means the crew should immediately begin search and rescue operations.

It’s important for passengers to pay attention to these signals and follow all safety instructions provided by the crew in order to ensure a safe and enjoyable cruise experience.

Horn Battles and Fun Activities

It’s always amusing to witness two massive vessels engaging in a musical competition on the open sea, don’t you think? Horn battles have become increasingly popular among cruise lines as a way to create a fun and friendly atmosphere onboard.

However, there is a certain etiquette that needs to be followed to ensure that the competition remains safe and enjoyable for everyone involved.

First and foremost, horn battles should only be done in open waters and away from other vessels. Cruise ships are massive and powerful, so it’s important to ensure that they don’t accidentally collide with each other or cause any harm to nearby ships.

Additionally, the battle should be brief and not disturb other passengers who may be trying to relax or sleep.

Despite these guidelines, horn battles have become a beloved tradition among cruise enthusiasts, with Disney Cruise Line leading the pack with their impressive musical horns and elaborate battles.

What is the history of cruise ship horns and how have they evolved over time?

The evolution of cruise ship horns can be traced back to their role in navigation and warning signals. With advancements in sound engineering and acoustics, cruise ship horns are now designed to be heard from a distance of two nautical miles, while also adding a tunefulness to the travel experience.

How do cruise ships ensure that their horns are audible from two nautical miles away in foggy conditions?

To ensure that cruise ship horns are audible from two nautical miles away in foggy conditions, technological advancements in sound engineering have been implemented. These advancements enable the horns to produce a loud and clear sound that can easily be heard, promoting safety at sea.

Can passengers request to participate in a horn battle between their ship and another ship?

Passengers cannot request to participate in a horn battle as it violates regulations and etiquette. Horn battles have a history of being fun, but safety is a priority. Exploring cruise ship horns is fascinating, but professional and technical.

What is the protocol for using the horn in case of a medical emergency onboard the ship?

In case of a medical emergency onboard the ship, the notification protocol is activated immediately. The horn usage is one of the onboard procedures used to signal for emergency response, ensuring passenger safety.

Are there any regulations or restrictions on the use of cruise ship horns in certain parts of the world or during certain times of day?

Did you know that regulations and time restrictions on cruise ship horns vary by location? In some areas, such as Alaska, there are strict noise pollution regulations, while in others, there are time restrictions to limit the environmental impact.

MSC Splendida Musical Horns?

By Nathan H5 , May 22, 2015 in MSC Cruises

Recommended Posts

Hi everybody,

I have been searching the web to no avail, trying to find out about what generates the music played from the Splendida when leaving/arriving to various ports. Here is a video link showing Splendida departing and playing "We Will Rock You":

I am an air horn specialist and the sound I am hearing is definitely not coming from an array of air powered diaphragm horns. The Splendida uses electric piston horns for her main whistle(s). These also are not what is generating the "whistle music" the ship plays, such as "We Will Rock You", "Happy Birthday" and others.

I am also musically gifted, and I am counting at least twenty separate notes in the songs played. There is no room anywhere on the stack for an array of large horns. Electronic speakers cannot generate sounds of that power.

Does ANYONE know what is making the music? It sounds like MIDI and generated by some type of sound signals.

In contrast, I watched a youtube video with the Queen Elizabeth and the Queen Victoria playing "Happy Birthday" to the berthed Queen Mary 2. This music was very definitely generated by several air powered diaphragm horns. This sound is quite different in timbre than that of the MSC Splendida.

Many thanks for any help!!

I wouldn't have a clue, buuutttt, thanks so much for the link, I've really enjoyed it!

Here's a link to magnifica playing Seven Nation Army and Happy Birthday

Janet&Carl

I shall try and find out :) I am on Orchestra for two weeks. I'm thinking Orchestra is like Magnifica both of them "Musica" class ships.

I have no shame and will ask around - I will even ask the captain when he does his "past guests" cocktail party.

On our two cruises with the Splendida they played "Com te partiro" with Andrea Bocelli as singer.

On our last cruise on Splendida in May out of Hamburg, they played "Happy Birthday" and "Seven nation army" The White Stripes. I heard it is pre-recorded and they just playing it while leaving port

Hi everybody! Well, I found out what the music is coming from, after doing research and connecting it with the video I had posted above.

LRAD!! Long Range Acoustical Device. These are and have been, used on cruise ships and other ships as weapons. They were set to emit very high pitched beams of sound at Samoan pirates, used also on military ships. What got me interested was that Animal Planet program "Whale Wars". The Japanese fleet was using LRAD against the Sea Shepherds. Well, the owner of the ship also purchased LRAD to use against the Japanese, however they were playing music through theirs, mainly "Ride of the Valkyries".

OK, the sound generated by a large LRAD is above and beyond anything a loudspeaker can create.The sound actually re-amplifies in the air in front of the LRAD, and by many times, hence the deep bass that carries for a long way. This LRAD could actually be used as the ship's main whistle!!

The people who came up with this idea, intentionally set this MIDI sequence up to play very slowly, as if it were being played through real horns.

OK if you watch the video again, you note the sound getting more and more powerful as the stern of the ship approaches. At 2.31 on the video, you see the LRAD hung out over the side of the ship, it is painted white to match the ship. Looking at other photos, shows the LRAD on the other side of the ship too. It looks kinda like radar dishes, but that is the LRAD.

Since pirates often try to board near the stern, these LRAD arrays can be used as weapons against the pirates too and have been used on other cruise ships, hence on some other MSC ships, their LRAD weapons are now being used to entertain people!! Good stuff!!

Please pardon the over-sized font. I have uncontrollable diabetes and I am losing my eyesight. Sux...

How amazing that a weapon is being used to create music......thanks for letting us know.

How interesting. Thanks for reporting back to us after you found the answer!

That's interesting considering lrads don't play low acoustical sounds... was not meant to play music was meant to play a pitch so high it hurts. It can play music but only high mid to very high pitch tones.

I've looked at the videos and images of the ship, as well as been on the ship and seen them in operation and can correct your impression and tell you they are

BALCONY and external SHIP WASHING GANTRIES

certainly not weapons used as musical devices.

What look like dishes are in fact hose reels which pay out the water hose as the gantry moves on its rails along the ship.

Sorry to disillusion some people

here is an image of the stern of Splendida with the washing gantries circled in RED and the tracks they run along marked by BLUE lines (just underneath the tracks). the "dishes" pay out water hoses and electrical cables for the motors.

edit:- admittedly they do have a similar size and shape to a LRAD but rest assured they are not those,

And just another slight corrections: they are not Samoan pirates, they are Somali pirates...EM

Yep, I've seen them in action on my other cruises. They go up and down and side to side on tracks to clean the balconies, sliders and windows.

Thanks, I was wondering myself how this would work.

For each tone you need a different horn or play with the air pressure.

I was imagining some kind of sliding trumpet system or a pipe organ system like they have in some churches (and icehockey rinks in the old days) and having the pipes replaced by horns ;)

But a LARD system makes sense!

Even though it's most likely not the thing in the picture. I saw some video's of where the sound might get out of.

In this video you see about 6 horns lined up  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDJ9av7BobI

but in this video of the same boat they point the camera to the 'airvent horn thing'  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ8mMBwVKYE  (start @2:40). They also mention the sound used to be louder so they can regulate the volume.

It would make sense to 'hide' the LARD in these big 'chimney/airvents' as it would spread the sound more widely and maybe even amplify the sound more, as the LARD system is a directional sound system.

Here’s What The Horns Sounding on a Cruise Ship Mean

You’re on your cruise ship. The entire week is ahead of you. You’re excited about the exotic ports of call, the food, the shows… and yes, the time off from email and the cell phone. You have a drink in your hand. You’re in paradise.

And then… HOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNKKKKKK. HOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNKKKKKK.

The ship’s horn sounds loudly. It’s enough to scare you half to death.

While the horns on a cruise ship may surprise you, they are an extremely important aspect of sailing. The ship’s horns harken back to a day before radios and loudspeakers.

They serve as communication with other boats in the area, telling them what the cruise ship is planning to do. Without the horn signals, the risk of a collision would be much greater.

So what do they mean?

As you would guess, different horns have different meanings. We’ve broken down the horn signals with what they mean below.

Inland Waters (Near Port)

One short blast = Changing course to starboard (right) Two short blasts = Changing course to port (left) Three short blasts = Operating in reverse Five short blasts = Danger signal Two long blasts = Leaving berth

Open International Waters

One short blast = Passing on ship’s port side Two short blasts = Passing on ship’s starboard side Three short blasts = Operating in reverse Five short blasts = Danger signal

In addition, ships will also sound their horns for other reasons; most notably in low visibility. This will usually involved regular bursts of sound to let other ships in the area know that the cruise ship is there.

And when a cruise ship makes the sound heard below? Well, that’s just them blowing off a little steam and having some fun.

After one prolonged blast, the boater alerts nearby vessels that it is leaving the slip or dock.

A general emergency alarm is indicated by these seven short and one long blasts of the ship’s horn. The crew may have to leave the ship due to an onboard fire, a grounding, a collision, or other circumstances. In some cases, the crew can hear the ship’s bells or whistles.

It’s 5:59 am and ships are coming in to port when all of a sudden we hear 5 blast????

Danger I do not understand your intentions

Would you happen to know what one VERY long blast means?

I just heard a cruise ship give seven short blast and one long blast… it is at the dock and is departing. Any ideas what this might mean? I have never heard this before, and I live right near the cruise ship terminal.

That’s the emergency signal that’s given during the safety muster drill.

Cool! Thank you!

Did the 1920’s transatlantic passenger ships, prior to leaving, have a signal ‘to get on board.’

I’m not sure.

Disney Wish: Mickey Reinstalled on Funnels and Horn Testing… The Real Horn

Today, Ems-Dollart Media shared video of the Mickey emblems reinstalled on the Disney Wish’s funnels. Additionally, in the video recorded at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, you can hear the Disney Wish via her horn, not the musical horns, her real fog horn.

In late-February, the Mickey emblems were temporary removed from the ship as seen in a previously video shared by Ems-Dollart Media .
