What a moron...Why pay many thousands when you could buy a pup tent and cook some hotdogs in the back yard for 20 bucks...
Bet the rent this idiot is on the payroll, one way or another.
From what I understand they could easily have lost the ship if they had failed to quickly control the fire.
I’d say they’re pretty lucky.
Likely a Carnival employee, as this contradicts the others interviewed, actual video etc.
the international association of whining lawyers is not in your corner on this one. Neither is the amalgamated association of permanent victims and those otherwise inconvienced by natural happenings....so sad!

Or maybe he just see things in perspective and doesn’t get bent out of shape about everything.
Been on one cruise, but not sure will ever go with Carnival again due to numerous passengers saying this cruise ship has had known engine problems lately in online review sites.
It looked like a lot were making the best of the situation unlike the ones who stole what wasn’t theirs. Sound familiar?
Yeah, I enjoy sleeping in sewage.
A client’s son was on the ship, and was interviewed by CNN. He also didn’t makd it out to be that bad.....but I did note he was a ‘platinum’ member...so maybe he got better treatment.
AHHH, I think he is probably right. He went on a cruise, but ended up having a FREE camping trip, a GRATIS free Cruise in the future, at least $500 cash, and a good story to tell. He is a winner with a positive attitude.
hey!!!!when the Greyhound bus with 26 passangers slid on the ice and bumped a guardrail, you were the 967th "passenger to file an injured back claim....pathetic.

I should start a boat tour, buy some rusty boat, set up porta-potties in the rooms and get some drunk to make salami sandwiches for dinner...
Promise elegance and wink and nod while taking reservations from people like you.
I saw a few of the people who were interviewed after getting of the ship who kind of shrugged their shoulders about it not being pleasant but no big deal.
I also saw drama queens who had obviously spoken to their attorneys about the lifetime of mental anguish they’re sure to suffer.
I camp in a tent so inconvenience isn’t a major hassle to me.
Oh yeah, what a deal...Get one vacation a year and spend it slipping and sliding on human waste..Cool...Tell all your friends and ask the wife how impressed she is!
Well, my family and I were on the Concordia, before it sank, and it was fantastic!
All I would ask is for my money back and possibly the pay for the lost vacation time. I certainly wouldn’t be whining about pain and suffering.
Make sure you tell him to not get bent out of shape about it.
While he's on the trip, have people steal all the stuff from his house so he can keep things in perspective. After all, it could have been worse.
It does make me wonder if the passengers that paid more and had better accomodations might have had an easier time.
