Re: Fancy a cruise on this one, if you can afford it
I read the report on some of this one.
The passengers were mystified as to what was going on, they knew nothing of the problem.
But there was no news as to where the passengers would be allowed to disembark, if ever.
End up in some part way off their original route and then try to gte home.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Fancy a cruise on this one, if you can afford it
Crystal Cruises chartered a ferry, took all passengers to Miami (original final cruise port) and they were flown home from there. Just thought the name was appropriate and reminded me of my Hong Kong days and walking down the street and seeing various signs that made one look again, such as sticks in the memory 'Heep on Mor Shipping Company'
