Cruise Liner

[poorhunter78]

Wife left on a cruise last saturday. From I think Ft. lauderdale to Aruba, then back to Florida. Got a call Tuesday nite. CDC make them turn the barge around and bring her home. She said a outbreak of sick on board. Before boarding saturday Mrs. Poor say they not aloud to board til they sanatize ship from previous cruise outbreak of sickness..

I told her "I would be leary about getting on board that boat".. But who would waste $859.00 by saying no!!

Think it called---The Princess Crown

I saw on the news that there were 2 or 3 ships at the same time that had outbreaks. Thats the bad thing about a ship; You have a huge number or people confined to an area. If you are sick, you WILL spread it. The ships ask everyone when they check in if they have a fever, sysmptoms, etc or been sick recently.

This is the outcome when people lie.

wow hope she is OK

and I hope they credit her another trip for the future.


yea, small confinement and sick is a bad combo!!

Well I do hope the wifes allright and things turn out OK, but the cruise industry appears to be in a death spiral. I think the next forms will have a disclamer that sayes, not responsible for Legionairs, food poisoning or drowning. I think in this hard economy they are cutting to many corners.
Legionairs comes from dirty air ducts, the food poisoning is from low grade food or poor handeling of it and the drownings come from the clowns they hire to captain there ships. My neighbor was a first mate and he told me about them. Frank

LOL, more bs from frankn. What cruise line did this neighbor work for?

Apparently you haven't been on a cruise ship.

There are those that add to a post and those that subtract from a post. Jason FALLS into the latter groupe.

Poorhunter...for $859.00 I'll load her into my best canoe, serve her fruity drinks, take her on a tour of the mangroves, show her the sights and sounds, put her up a tent on her very own island with her own little white beach for a few nights, provide her with food, water, and lots of bugs spray, and promise to go back for her in three or four days. I promise you it will be a southern cruise and adventure she'll never forget! And the best part, you won't have to worry about her spending $859.00 on another cruise with me. Just say the word and I've got your back buddy.........

I see that the ship just docked in FL, 2 days short of it's run....

I don't think she'll be a happy camper when she gets back. So you better get in gear and get your house shipshape, or you may just get the beating of your life

There are those that tell the truth and those that lie to get attention. I guess you fall into the latter group.

That really sucks about the short trip and CDC. I have been on two Cruises myself and they were the best vactions every. At that time we were treated very very well.
