"Tiger Cruise" is one of the only three Disney Channel original movies to bear a viewer-discretion warning at the beginning of the film. The discretion encourages family viewing so that the family watching it could talk about the movie and the events of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. The other such movies were "Don't Look Under the Bed" (1999), which bore a discretion for scary images, and Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior (2006), which bore one for violence.
As depicted, USS Constellation was actually returning from her 2001 Western Pacific deployment with "tigers" onboard when the terrorist attacks on the USA of 11 September 2001 occurred, but the airpower show that was supposed to happen was canceled.
"Tiger Cruise" is one of the few Disney Channel original movies to have a TV-PG rating, given because it contained references to the events of September 11, 2001.
After the scene of everyone banging on pots in the bakery, it took three months of thorough cleaning to finally get the space back up to Naval Health Standards.
Like most other Disney Channel Original Movies before "High School Musical" (2006), this one never made it to video.
