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.

Oh, that's ironic. It's truly ironic. Harry Willard: What's wrong, son. You can tell me. Elliott Willard: Dad, let's not do the man-to-man talk bit now, okay. I couldn't take it. Harry Willard: Oh, look, the ship's crawling with pretty girls. Go find yourself a girl. Elliott Willard: You don't understand, Pop. You just don't understand anything. Harry Willard: I wish you'd stop talking like I'm from Mars or something. What don't I understand? Elliott Willard: Simply this - I'm not interested in other girls.
