I was just home for lunch and I was watching the noon news. There was a story that prompted me to start this topic. A Carnival cruise ship sliced through a freighter in the Caribbean this morning. Details are sketchy right now. Forty-some crewmen are missing from the freighter, but the cruise ship seems to be okay. They don't know who is at fault yet. I guess we'll hear more about it on the news tonight. Pleasant news for those of us who are heading south soon!

A friend just told me that story. She didn't know which Carnivale ship was involved, but she knew I'd be interested as I'm scheduled to sail on the Jubilee a week from Sunday. If anyone hears anymore today, I'd appreciate hearing... Ro | |||||

83.3 | What do they do in that case? | THOTH::MCNEIL | Tue Feb 21 1989 14:07 | 8 | |
Does anyone know what they do about all the people booked on this ship while it is being repaired??? If able??? Do they get refunds, or another cruise line...???? Just curious | |||||

From what I saw on the news, the "Celebration" suffered only minor damage, alot of scratches and was re-painted in Miami. The ship sailed out of Miami as scheduled the same day. Jayne | |||||

Late update on the Celebration... Feb 25th I went on the Holiday, which goes to Cozumel, Caymans, and Ocho Rios, Jamaica...absolutely gorgeous...and the Celebration and Holiday disembark right next to each other. They were painting the damage on the Celebration, but it was only minor that I could see. Can't imagine when they'll have time to really fix it all at once. As far as the Holiday, I would recommend that cruise to anyone. I went with Singleworld and had the best time of my life. Kristen |
