This turned out to be a good movie. Fred MacMurray and Jane Wyman finally take the European trip they've always dreamed of, including taking their three children along. Tommy Kirk and Doborah Walley are their teen-aged children and bring along their romantic escapades. On location shooting make for a better than average Disney film. Saw this on the Disney channel.

Trivia
The Disney studio was aware of Tommy Kirk's homosexuality by this time. Kirk did not get along with Jane Wyman during filming, and his relationship with Fred MacMurray deteriorated as well. He recalled, "I thought Jane Wyman was a hard, cold woman and I got to hate her by the time I was through with Bon Voyage!. Of course, she didn't like me either, so I guess it came natural. I think she had some suspicion that I was gay and all I can say is that, if she didn't like me for that, she doesn't like a lot of people."

Goofs
The SS United States was famously advertised as being totally fireproof, with wood furnishings banned from her construction and decor. In sound stage version of the ship's library, the space is decorated with wooden tables and chairs.

Quotes
[on the beach at Cannes, Harry and Skipper are watching Elliott chat up a pretty French girl, as the girl's mother looks on disapprovingly]
Skipper Willard: How do you like Elliott's new moustache, Dad?
Harry Willard: I think I like the one on the girl's mother better.
