A couple of things- 1. My in laws and some of my husbands family were on this ship during the storm. From their point of view- there were announcements made from the cruise director to keep everyone informed and calm durning the storm. 2. My husband has a ship tracker on his phone and you can CLEARLY see where the captain tried to go around the storm but it was too big and just had to try to get people back to safety. I say THANK YOU to the captain and the crew for doing what it took to bring my family back home safe 🤍

My husband and I have cruised several times and hit two horrible storms, we were told we hit 19 foot waves in one and high winds, so they closed off the top deck for most of the trip. The captain kept us up to date occasionally, but we were never worried. It was a big ship and she handled it great. Sure our feet lifted out from under us a couple times, but we were in a storm, we held onto hand rails and were careful. The crew and captain did their jobs.

I am a Navy Vet. I was stationed in Charleston twice. Storms come up and that one was very typical. Cruise ships usually avoid these storms but I assume a scheduled return along with fuel costs had them go into it. The ship was not in any danger. minor water damage is typical. water weighs just over 8 pounds a gallon so it has great force. Typical passengers don't deal with the sea.

As a ship nerd, ships this size are designed to be flexible in order to "bend" in rough seas.

People go out for a cruise on the ocean and then are surprised to find out that weather occurs in the ocean as well

@scgaliop7921 11 месяцев назад

We took a cruise in 2005. That was the year of all the hurricanes, seemingly one right after another. We sailed in some really rough seas. More than once, the ship pitched up and slammed down in the waves. Those seas lasted at least 36 hours. The wind was so strong that the ship was listing so severely we had to hang onto the the railing to stay upright. Was I scared, yep. Did I make it to make my destination, safely, yep. That wasn’t happenstance. That was a captain and crew focused on sailing a ship in rough seas!

Had an amazing experience on a Royal Caribbean cruise in the same lane a few years back. I decided with the weather changing I'd forego the first dinner headline meals for a vegetarian option. Had a great night walking the halls and decks, pretty much by myself and enjoying the feeling and sound of a ship under stress. By morning the crew had shampooed every square foot of carpet on the ship. Fantastic job, all!

A heart lacking of gratitude is so ugly. The gifts one must cherish like life is more important. Sometimes it's okay to silently sail through a storm and experience the miracle happening right in front of you.

This lady needs to read about the captain that communicated and still chose to abandon a ship full of students, who later drowned. She should be grateful she's alive.

@wisecoconut5 11 месяцев назад

Better angry than dead. The captain should be commended for getting the ship back safely. Honestly, I think the captain didn't want to make assurances because he had no way to know how events would unfold. It sounds like the storm churned up unexpectedly and unpredicted. If the captain had offered empty platitudes the passengers would be upset about that too.

Nah, unprofessional to not give guidance to the passengers. Determining negligence depends on if they could of avoided it or not. And they should of communicated with the passengers.

They should only be reporting on this to appreciate the good work of the captain and crew to navigate the storm safely and return the passengers home with no loss of life or serious injuries. The job of a captain is to safely navigate the ship, not to make you feel better about bad weather… these ships can take a storm 10x this bad and come out with little to no damage. Being afraid in this scenario is only a matter of ignorance.
