A cruise should be a time to enjoy and relax

Unread post by Ray B »

What is it with American cruisers, they either want to jump overboard or have a fight. And this is exactly what happened a couple of days ago. A fight between two passengers has resulted in the cruise ship Wonder of the Seas returning to port. The two pasengers who were fighting were taken to hospital and Dade County sheriffs escorted a group of pasengers from the ship.
Earlier this year another fight between passengers took place after a Carnival cruise. The trouble which took place inside the cruise terminal, resulted in 24 pasengers being place on a do not cruise list.
I just want to have a nice time.
Don't worry, be happy

It's generally alcohol induced Ray.
You see it at seven in the morning at the airport.

Then onboard, it's people's determination to get the most out of the drinks package.
When we were on Azura last year, we chatted with a nice couple from Leeds who were on the drinks package.
The lady actually admitted to Mrs B that she had made herself unwell because of drinking right through the day and night.
She was daytime drinking, even though she didn't want it, but had paid for it.

I'll be honest, when we sailed with Ambassador, they had a half price drinks package on deal at the time of booking, so I bought it.
We both drunk much, much more than we would normally do .
Not massively to excess, but definitely much more.
Mrs B rarely drinks at home yet she was quashing Long Island Iced Tea at eleven o'clock in the morning one day
