Cruises should start requiring everyone to have passports so they’re able to stop by other nearby land in case of emergency... not go all the way back to USA
I don't think that was the actual problem. They probably didn't want to pay the hotel and airfare to get people home. You have to have your birth certificate, or passport to get back ashore once you get back home. Something could have easily been worked out with everything collected to go on a cruise to begin with.
@@TSwany I went to Mexico via Carnival when I was 12. When you're a minor in the USA, you only need a birth certificate/verification of American birth. I went on a cruise again a month after I turned 18 few years ago (to Nassau, Bahamas) and registered for a passport couple of months before my trip.
I love all the people commenting that these people are drama queens. Like you wouldn’t scared being in the middle of ocean, having very little food, doing your business in bags, and having very little contact with loved ones. Don’t claim that you would be completely fine in this situation because you are lying to yourself.
Victor Davalos I’m not claiming that other people around the world have a more difficult than the people in this news report. I’m calling out the fact that some of the commenters think that the passengers on this boat are drama queens like they, themselves wouldn’t be in the same situation.
Actually I wish I was on this cruise it it wasn’t as bad as they described it I know all too well it could’ve easily have been 1000 times worse than it was if I was on this cruise I would’ve taken it as an adventure and I could’ve gotten a free cruise
CARNIVAL LIED. In an emergency you don’t need a passport to be rescued. Furthermore they had two empty cruise ships nearby. They could have temporarily landed, transferred the passengers, and avoided 8 days of misery .
Anthony W Lee exactly! When in high school we had to use my school as a shelter during a hurricane. Being a family member worked there we got to stay in a separate wing of the school but when going into the main part for food it smelled so bad because people were letting their kids go to the bathroom alone and those kids were flushing complete rolls of toilet paper and other things down the toilet clogging them! It was horrific! People need to act better!
@@caseythompson474--What's wrong with so many people letting their brats act like animals? A cat pulls out whole rolls of toilet paper. A dog might pick off a roll and put it in the toilet. Human beings should know better by about age 3 and before that they should be watched. Thankfully, earthquakes (what we have) rarely require staying in a shelter.
Same thing happens at Electric Daisy Carnival (music festival). The toilets are spilling onto the floor in just a few hours, because people don’t know how to behave .
“Oh my gosh this is like titanic” Yea except the ship didn’t sink and nobody died...so yea, exactly the same. Don’t get me wrong I’d be pissed too if my vacation got ruined and it sounds like a really bad few days, but that’s still a way over dramatic statement.
Connor Mckenzie that was more than generous plus a full refund this incident wasn’t as bad as these maniacs described it take it from me I know cruise ships this incident could’ve easily been 1000 times worse
Get Real you just spent a fortune on a cruse, probably had to take time off work, maybe had to pay for parking, maybe had to pay baby sitters, may have had to have your pets taken care of, and then you have to wallow around in shit and eat onion sandwiches. And you think an insulting 500$ is fair compensation. Plus the fact that you didn't even know if you were going to survive. The one couple had their wedding destroyed. These companies make so much fucking money, 500$ what a joke!
They were stuck in the middle of the ocean with limited food and water and no electricity and they probably spent at least 3000 on this cruise you would have been scared to
Timothy Holcomb 500$ plus a FULL REFUND!!!!!! That’s more than enough compensation in my mind nobody died the conditions weren’t that terrible they should’ve felt very fortunate the whole ship didn’t go up in flames
In an emergency you go for the nearest port. Technically the ship was probably not in an emergency at that point, but of course it could develop rapidly. Without sanitation and proper water and food supply, only a gastroenteritis would have been enough. Spreading rapidly and dehydrating everyone in the heat. In my opinion this is an excellent example of business before safety.
Yes normally the ship has people spraying your hands with disinfectant. On this broken ship, they had 8 days without toilets or soap or water, but apparently the CEO didn’t care that conditions were unsanitary .
this is not business before safety but just the opposite. it would have taken longer because they wouldn't be admitted into any country without their passport
@@laceybanter5937even if they had gone to nearby Progreso, Mexico it would have not solved the problem because the ship would have been held up in port for repairs and the cruise would have been cancelled. As a result, many passengers would have been stranded in Mexico as they did not have passports which they would have needed to fly home.
20 years ago we ran aground with Carnival, off Nevis, onto a reef. We were stranded 2 days. It happened at 3am and woke everyone up, the 2nd in command was drunk and steered the ship the wrong way. After that, Carnival is a no-no for me until the day I die.
Valerie, did you even watch it? $500 + the price of the cruise + a voucher for another one and travel expenses paid for. Don't be such an idiot ya goose
Stephanie Mukai YOU KNOW WHY YOU WILL TAKE THE $500?🥴BECAUSE YOU DON’T HAVE SHIT TO YOUR NAME OR A WINDOW TO THROW IT OUT!🤨WE SPENT $6000 FOR THAT SHIT HOLE CRUISE. SO PULL UP YOUR DIRTY KNICKERS AND GET A REAL JOB!
Thanks for the video. Only those of on that cruise will truly understand. The morning the call came across the loud speaker at 5:28am and smoke filled the lower cabins/hallways and the ship went dead in the water I for one will never forget. However I do believe the word "tragedy" is a strong word. We all will have a different story, depending where we were on the ship and who was traveling with us, etc. My husband & I took my special needs daughter on the cruise for her 21st birthday. As a mom my focus immediately turned to her safety, her meds and would they last long enough. Hey I from Texas I know how to camp, but I am not use to bobbing up and down in the middle of the gulf of Mexico, on a leaning ship with no one around for hundreds of miles. I remember the ship leaning so bad at one point I was thinking it was surely going to tip over at anytime. I know your mind wonders at times like these, or mine does anyway. If it would have different had it just been me, however I am a mom first and I had a child to care for. Believe it or not, not just rich folks take cruises. Hard working folks save up for months to take nice vacations! My family has since taking another cruise with Carnival and I have another one book with RC for this year. I am sorry if I offend anyone, however I feel Carnival should have never sent that ship out and put their passengers and crew in danger(and yes I get accident happen, but could this have been preventable). I do believe God was watching over us all! I am thankful that the firemen aboard were able to extinguish the fire, we made it back to land, nobody died and we have more days to live and enjoy life. I for one intend to do just that!!! God Bless!
Problem, as long as it's a pro-profit enterprise, this sort of shit will stay rampant if there is no regulation. In order to get regulation, you'll have to force it at the end of a gun barrel, i.e. force.
Are y'all actually criticizing these people for panicking over being stranded with hardly any food or water and sewage flowing everywhere? Y'all are crazy.
Yes because they should’ve felt very lucky the whole ship didn’t go up in flames that could’ve easily been a whole lot worse and the crew did everything they could to make them happy
I've had a bad experience on a cruise ship. Realizing just how little rights you have at sea, I won't go again. The entire industry needs an overhaul. You are NOT safe on these ships.
@@DIVISIONINCISION the ship wouldn't start when we arrived, we didn't leave the port until 2 hours after we were scheduled, and my family had never been on a cruise ship before, so when the ship was kind of jerky (more than it should have been really) we just assumed it was normal, because we didn't know better. Many of the passengers talked about how the ship didn't seem alright. We couldnt even go to Cozumel which is where we were scheduled to dock because the ship was having so many issues we had to go to a closer City in Mexico. Which I found really odd. I was only 14 at the time.
Not if they don't intend on getting off the ship in ports of call, you just need a birth certificate or something else to get back into the US when it returns home. I personally find that excuse for not going to the closest land to be a load of shit.
@Gregory Smith that is incorrect. As long as you leave from an American port and return to the same port at the end of the cruise then a passport isn't needed but it's just recommended in case you miss the ship at a foreign port
@Gregory Smith I just got off a cruise not 3 weeks ago. I shit you not... a Passport was NOT required. it was recommended, but I saw plenty of adults carrying their birth certificate porting out of Baltimore, going to the Bahamas and coming back to Baltimore. I'm not saying I recommend that practice, cause I don't... You never know when/if you are going to have some kind of emergency that would lead you to flying home or to your next port. As Jason said about returning to the same port you left from, 98% are doing just that. Might I also add, that your 'any boat not built in America isn't allowed to take Americans to another American port unless it goes to a foreign port' is a load of shit. I'm travelling on the Regal Princess in October, built in Italy registered in Bermuda, porting out of New York, going to Newport Rhode Island, Boston Mass., Bar Harbor Maine, St John in New Brunswick, and Halifax Nova Scotia.
I was on that cruise and it was not as bad as all the drama queens make it out to be. I also have been on 3 more carnival cruises since then. Two of the cruises where on the Triumph and I will cruise that ship again.
Having worked in the travel industry and taking great pleasure in making sure my clients got every amenity available, every discount, every extra excursion possible, I have to say that I rarely steered my clients towards cruises because in my personal experience I found them to be not just targets for safety issues but altogether too confining. I've had fellow agents tell me "if you don't have fun on a cruise there's something wrong with you," to which I've replied, "Can I ride a horse on the promenade deck, or climb thru state park trails and see 400 different species of birds on a cruise?" Their collective reactions were either gaping stares or responses like, "That's why you have ports of call." I would tell them that I don't want ports of call, I want to go to a city, a country, a resort, a destination where everything is already available to me, whether I'm looking to experience the Grand Tour of Europe, or an Explorative 14-day Wilderness Expedition Hike into the Yukon. I'm not interested in having to get off and get back on a ship again . And in between having to time everything because the ship has deadlines. There's no fun in that, only more stress and it's from that which I'm trying to get away! And, there are just TOO many things that can go wrong for a person on a ship with 1500 to 3000 other people in close quarters with you. Who wants all that hassle and crowded permission you have to allow for each other! No, when I took someone and their family, or just a single individual on the trip of a lifetime I made sure they'd have an incredible time with loads of perks and no one to get in their way! Even if they went to family resorts like Disney or Six Flags or Cedarpoint. The risk of disease cross-contamination among passengers on a cruise, should there be some kind of breakout, would be swift and rampant, and a person would have little chance of avoiding contracting it even if they were sequestered to their cabins. Whereas a passenger on a plane, train, hydrofoil, dogsled or horseback need only return to their point of outset, and if too impaired, their guide can either be or get them the help they need. I always tied up all loose ends, too. I arranged for all their hotels, transfers, tickets, passes, guides, times, meals (kinds), extras on flights and trains, seats, berths, cars--everything along the way and all that would be waiting for them at their point(s) of destination. It was such great fun taking them places all around this country and the world! And it was a tremendousLy gratifying experience as well just getting to know the clients and hearing from them afterwards that they'd had an incredible time. The magnitude of what a really well-trained travel agent had to know was promethian, but that has become all but obsolete now. And I think that's a bit of a shame, because tourists or passengers don't have a complete picture of what is out there, what I'd available, and what destination or excursion may be dangerous and should be avoided. I see this in the people who've gone missing in countries where there is heavy drug and sex-trafficking, and young women who are independent and who think they have a grip on the world and can venture as they please. If there had been an agent to advise them they'd never have gone to the places that devoured them. People don't have access, or don't know how or what to access when looking to arrange for a vacation. There are travel advisories not just for weather, but for danger because a country is known for its drug cartels, or terrorist activity, or anti-American ethos. There are folks out there that are just plain mean! and if you don't know where on that excursion not to turn you could wind up a statistic. Like the couples' who've disappeared in Bali. People had an advantage with us, because we also could pull 'strings,' we had discounts that venues accorded us that weren't available to the average passenger. But maybe that's what Trivago and Expedia and Zicasso are doing for people. I just pray that people do more research before they get their passports.
It’s possible the stored food was damaged by water or smoke from the fire. Also if there’s no electricity then meat, eggs, etc would thaw & spoil. And of course no way to cook it .
Passports before lives. I've been on one of their floating busses - the Victory from 2001 (Went in 2017). We just got done with an 8 day trip on the Disney Fantasy last week. Had any thing even close to that happened .. they would have alerted the cavalry. One of their other 3 nearest ships would have been in route immediately. This is horrifying.
it’s not that easy. you can’t get passengers on the boat without opening the doors which are underwater..... also the 2 boats would not be able to get close enough for people to transfer over..
Am I the only one who thought: thank goodness the ship had a safety system that put out the fire or many people could have died. With all the cruises that take place I’m impressed with how safe they are.
They've been trying to totally renovate this ship because it's become known for breaking down at sea, but just this week during renovations it caught fire. Honestly, why would anyone get on this ship?
I remember I went on a carnival ship we sailed in the middle of a storm off the coast of Miami I was thrown off my bunk on the top onto my parents bed at the bottom 😂 let's just say I was scared crapless
Anything could happen on any ship Royal is my favorite but I was on a Royal ship when a fire broke out in it. Not a good experience. I rather be stranded then a fire
My husband and my self would take a cruise each year, one year 2 cruises....the last one I was assaulted, no crew helped, we tried to file a report, not willing to take it, the purser kept telling us no, no, NO....I insisted, so they gave me a piece of paper and had me write down exactly what happened....I am sure they threw it in the trash, no sorry letter, no acknowledgment at all....we learned there is no police, no security at all on a ship...something happens and you are on your own.....needlessly we never took another cruise...I was afraid to leave my cabin, ate sandwiches from room service the whole cruise
within 7 hours of being dead in the water, cannibal gangs began roaming the decks searching for victims, while other groups began to form cults, sacrificing other passengers in order to gain protection from the elements
@@queenlanapepsicola2338 Except the Conccodia lost only 32 people compare to the 1500 people Titanic lost and most of them died from the freezing Northern Atlantic waters.
Those ships were sanitary with running water & toilets. Leaving people for 8 days in unsanitary conditions was dangerous & could have caused a disease epidemic .
Carnival is the same cruise line that just got caught dumping tons of plastic into the ocean a SECOND time! It would take me a lot before I decided to choose Carnival over Royal Caribbean
Man these people are creative. They built tent cities out of bed sheets and the crew members never gave up to try and comfort the passengers in any way. Don't blame Carnival for this. It was just a ship malfunction and they truly tried to do everything they can.
You get what you pay for with Carnival cruise line. A simple price comparison in the market will show you that old ships sailing out of Galveston TX are cheaper for a reason. As an avid cruiser, stick with Royal Caribbean or Princess for a safe, responsible cruise line. I was onboard Explorer of the Seas during a hurricane and had to stay at sea an extra day. Everything went smoothly and staff handled it flawlessly. I was on Emerald Princess during the Tsunami that hit Haiti and the staff were all calm and kept everyone well-informed. I can't stress enough...cruises come with many unique challenges, but you get what you PAY for.
Sarah MacFee actually I just got back from carnival triumph and we left from New Orleans $380 for 4 days not bad. It was my first cruise I would definitely go back
My husband was a crew member on the Sapphire Prince and when he started having symptoms that could only be attributed to brain cancer, they denied him a brain scan and gave him aspirin, which is is allergic to. The attending physician recommended a bran scan, but the supervising physician was quoted as saying, "its too expensive". He started bleeding internally from the aspirin. They eventually had to remove him from the ship via ambulance.
I’d say the ceos went below normal protocol and barely answered any questions it was decided the news would have to debunk this themselves as they wait for more info from the cruiseline
Clearly only showing interviews from people who were upset. Plenty of other videos of eye witness accounts that detail it much differently. Accidents happen. these companies are not out to make your life miserable.
My co-worker was on the ship. She said the crew never helped and the majority didn't speak English. She said they had issues before the ship even left port.
so basically i go on carnival ships all the time and i talked to my last cruise director about this, she said she was also the cruise director on this particular cruise and that as horrid as it was they did manage to have fun by hosting games etc everyday and they also had one working microphone to do karaoke on. She said that these days if there were an engine fire, the ship would be fine as they now have a backup generator. All ships do because of this incident. :)
Man. I had heard about this incident before, but didn't know that the Triumph is now the Sunrise. I just did a 4 day cruise on the Sunrise from Sept. 30th to Oct. 4th. I couldn't imagine being in this situation.
Fruther investigation revealed that carnival was aware of an increased risk for generator fire and chose to sail anyway without taking any preventative measures. When questioned carnival said "the cruise contract does not guarantee in any circumstance safe travel on sea worthy vessals" another example of the "fun ships" being not so fun. Oh and BTW if Costa Concordia looks familiar, its because its a sister of carnival victory that the company sold to costa. Coincidence?
Ok. While everyone is running up to the top deck to watch the initial billows of smoke, I would be running down to the restaurant hoarding bags and bags of food and water. Hopefully this would go unnoticed. I would make several trips. Then later, I would sell it for a very high price. 1 dinner roll -$5.00.
arizonatsunami you need to be shut up, I have been on 4 carnival cruises and I love all of them. They are so nice, safe and easy travel, good food, good service. I would go on one again
@@ericamarie1384 Not surprised they didn't die off from food poisoning on the first fucking night. Fucking $500 more than there original ticket lovely upgrade for them they profited of the bastard holiday.
I remember once when i was younger me and my family went on the triumph and it broke down mid sea. We all went to the stations like it was sinking or on fire. It eventually started back up but looking back it was terrifying.
I remember the Press Conference! "Because of all the suffering, The Only Family that will be left Alive, Anywhere, is The Royal Family, and Cleopatra!"
It should be mandatory that 2 master mechanics are on board every time a ship sales and the ship owners should be responsible for any accidents/rescues
"helicopters dropped off generators". The single biggest oversight is not having backup generators that can at least sustain running water and cooking facilities until the ship can get to land...
What is this "I survived Triumph" crap? I mean, really? You were without electricity and toilets, oh my god. I'm pretty sure that's not a life or death situation. And god forbid they have no cellphones and electricity!! People act like they had no food or water at all, but they did! Just because it wasn't enough food to make you completely full and the food wasn't a 5 star meal doesn't mean you starved. The situation was just uncomfortable! People have become so soft! It's a man made vessel, things are bound to go wrong from time to time! Jesus, why is everyone acting like their lives where threatened?
+Kaylee Wilbers exactly, people should be glad that it wasn't a life threatening situation. The ship wasn't even sinking, idk why people complain about "only getting 500 dollars" like you should be thankful they are even paying you, they shouldn't even have to do that. They got them home safely, they should be thankful for that.
+jessi smoot Yeah I am 60 and grew up on a farm with no phone, no running water (outhouse and a pump only), no TV. I think it was a good experience for those people to thank what they have.
A bit exaggerative for sure. This is why some ppl are so afraid to cruise too because of the news treating it like it's just a huge disaster. Sure it may be uncomfortable and ruin your trip but they offered the ppl refunds, a cruise voucher, cash and refunds on travel expenses. And honestly this is something that doesn't happen very often either. There are more car wrecks and plane problems than there are cruise problems. Unfortunately these things are on sea though were things can become unpredictable and since these things are like cities on a ship there can be technical difficulties occasionally but this is honestly one of the safest and most fun ways to travel.
I find it hard to feel sorry for people on cruise ships. They aren't on there out of necessity, they chose the ship to be served and entertained likely at the lowest price possible. Someone on a ship fleeing a war torn country, that's tragic.
@Gregory Smith Every passenger got a full refund of their expenses free cruise and $500 in compensation and what pain and suffering? There ware no incident related deaths or injuries those people simply overreacted (in fact that the only thing that pissed me off about this case) and wanted to get some more money out of the deal while I think what they ware offered was more than generous. In summery at the end of the day they didn't pay anything and walked out with $500 in their pockets and free cupon for a next ride…. Pain and Suffering…...pfff first world problems thats sad…..
With all these americans saying they should be happy with $500 I'm over here like does $500 mean something different in your country. $500 is nothing that's like getting a snickers bar and saying glad your not dead

In an emergency you go for the nearest port. Technically the ship was probably not in an emergency at that point, but of course it could develop rapidly. Without sanitation and proper water and food supply, only a gastroenteritis would have been enough. Spreading rapidly and dehydrating everyone in the heat.
In my opinion this is an excellent example of business before safety.
Yes normally the ship has people spraying your hands with disinfectant. On this broken ship, they had 8 days without toilets or soap or water, but apparently the CEO didn’t care that conditions were unsanitary

20 years ago we ran aground with Carnival, off Nevis, onto a reef. We were stranded 2 days. It happened at 3am and woke everyone up, the 2nd in command was drunk and steered the ship the wrong way. After that, Carnival is a no-no for me until the day I die.
I'd be so jealous looking over at the other people on the other cruise ships 😂
I’d be waving a turkey leg and a ice cold pina colada.
“Just like the Titanic.” Except without the sinking and mass freezing to death.
They should have taken the passengers onto other ships.
and put them where on them?
One of my classmates was actually on this cruise. It took the entire class several days before we realized THIS was the cruise he was on.
Just got off the Triumph today... had a great time... EXCELLENT ship... beautiful condition... things happen... it is a machine after all...
I'll take that $500!
Stephanie Mukai 500$ isn’t much when you spend 4 grand and up for a cruise vacation. That would of just paid for your food for a few days.
Valerie, did you even watch it? $500 + the price of the cruise + a voucher for another one and travel expenses paid for. Don't be such an idiot ya goose
500 is maybe a lot for all you broke bois anything short of being crowned king over all carnival execs would be insufficient
Stephanie Mukai So will I !!! 😖
Stephanie Mukai
YOU KNOW WHY YOU WILL TAKE THE $500?🥴BECAUSE YOU DON’T HAVE SHIT TO YOUR NAME OR A WINDOW TO THROW IT OUT!🤨WE SPENT $6000 FOR THAT SHIT HOLE CRUISE. SO PULL UP YOUR DIRTY KNICKERS AND GET A REAL JOB!
Thanks for the video. Only those of on that cruise will truly understand. The morning the call came across the loud speaker at 5:28am and smoke filled the lower cabins/hallways and the ship went dead in the water I for one will never forget. However I do believe the word "tragedy" is a strong word. We all will have a different story, depending where we were on the ship and who was traveling with us, etc. My husband & I took my special needs daughter on the cruise for her 21st birthday. As a mom my focus immediately turned to her safety, her meds and would they last long enough. Hey I from Texas I know how to camp, but I am not use to bobbing up and down in the middle of the gulf of Mexico, on a leaning ship with no one around for hundreds of miles. I remember the ship leaning so bad at one point I was thinking it was surely going to tip over at anytime. I know your mind wonders at times like these, or mine does anyway. If it would have different had it just been me, however I am a mom first and I had a child to care for. Believe it or not, not just rich folks take cruises. Hard working folks save up for months to take nice vacations! My family has since taking another cruise with Carnival and I have another one book with RC for this year. I am sorry if I offend anyone, however I feel Carnival should have never sent that ship out and put their passengers and crew in danger(and yes I get accident happen, but could this have been preventable). I do believe God was watching over us all! I am thankful that the firemen aboard were able to extinguish the fire, we made it back to land, nobody died and we have more days to live and enjoy life. I for one intend to do just that!!! God Bless!
Hahahahaha sucker
I'm glad your safe and agree that it should have been prevented.
Problem, as long as it's a pro-profit enterprise, this sort of shit will stay rampant if there is no regulation. In order to get regulation, you'll have to force it at the end of a gun barrel, i.e. force.
So what was the worst part of it? All the crap and urine everywhere?
The USCG said that the previous propulsion problems had nothing to do with the fire
A cruise is like a crowded shopping mall with loud obnoxious people you can’t escape from.......would never spend my money in that manner!
what?! Almost no cell phone service??? How did noone die?
Be ause not everyone is a teenage brat who lives off their phone
the dedede it’s called sarcasm
What so cell service.. no bangtan... 0-0
No service?
Oh my god! NO PORN!!!!!
Are y'all actually criticizing these people for panicking over being stranded with hardly any food or water and sewage flowing everywhere? Y'all are crazy.
Kennedy Jones Plus, don’t forget the ship was listing..I would have worried about sinking..
sksk sksk they gave them 500 dollars, voucher for ANOTHER cruise. And a COMPLETE refund. Ur criticizing them
Yes because they should’ve felt very lucky the whole ship didn’t go up in flames that could’ve easily been a whole lot worse and the crew did everything they could to make them happy
This is why you don't go on Carnival.
I told my parent after watching this no Carnival Ships non
Lol as if other companies don’t have problems too
jon368100 yah but no one fucks up as hard as Carnival...
disagree white star did they made titanic xd
I've had a bad experience on a cruise ship. Realizing just how little rights you have at sea, I won't go again. The entire industry needs an overhaul. You are NOT safe on these ships.
I was on THIS ship a week before this happened, and there was issues with the ship, we could just tell. This is horrible
Electrical issues, Cammei? Tell us!
@@DIVISIONINCISION the ship wouldn't start when we arrived, we didn't leave the port until 2 hours after we were scheduled, and my family had never been on a cruise ship before, so when the ship was kind of jerky (more than it should have been really) we just assumed it was normal, because we didn't know better. Many of the passengers talked about how the ship didn't seem alright. We couldnt even go to Cozumel which is where we were scheduled to dock because the ship was having so many issues we had to go to a closer City in Mexico. Which I found really odd. I was only 14 at the time.
I was on it also but I was young so kinda enjoyed it except the poop in the hallways and the food
They had no cell service because nobody there had Verizon.
Zachary Dalton they had sprint! Lol!
LOLOL!!!
Verizon is trash what are you taking about hun
They had metropcs lol
They had ROGERS! AT&T is my gang
How come people didn't have PASSPORTS?? Isn't it a requirement for a cruise since you are visiting other countries?
Not if they don't intend on getting off the ship in ports of call, you just need a birth certificate or something else to get back into the US when it returns home. I personally find that excuse for not going to the closest land to be a load of shit.
Incorrect, if your cruise is going starting and ending at the same port then a passport is not needed
You don’t need passports to go to some places, I haven’t needed a passport and I’ve been on 3 carnival cruises
@Gregory Smith that is incorrect. As long as you leave from an American port and return to the same port at the end of the cruise then a passport isn't needed but it's just recommended in case you miss the ship at a foreign port
@Gregory Smith I just got off a cruise not 3 weeks ago. I shit you not... a Passport was NOT required. it was recommended, but I saw plenty of adults carrying their birth certificate porting out of Baltimore, going to the Bahamas and coming back to Baltimore. I'm not saying I recommend that practice, cause I don't... You never know when/if you are going to have some kind of emergency that would lead you to flying home or to your next port. As Jason said about returning to the same port you left from, 98% are doing just that.
Might I also add, that your 'any boat not built in America isn't allowed to take Americans to another American port unless it goes to a foreign port' is a load of shit. I'm travelling on the Regal Princess in October, built in Italy registered in Bermuda, porting out of New York, going to Newport Rhode Island, Boston Mass., Bar Harbor Maine, St John in New Brunswick, and Halifax Nova Scotia.
I was on that cruise and it was not as bad as all the drama queens make it out to be. I also have been on 3 more carnival cruises since then. Two of the cruises where on the Triumph and I will cruise that ship again.
Sure you were.
militarywalk bet u wernt
militarywalk fr tho. Everyone makes carnival look so bad. I have cruised with them 4 times. I love it and will continue too
@@lilyhanze3682 People make Carnival look bad as its budget cruise line. Like going with Easy Jet..
The worst part was the poop all in the hallways and peeing in bags and no ac
Textbook lesson in melodrama. Love how the one lady compared going without power to the Titanic. Wow.
They really didn't tow it to Mexico because of passports? That should be a lawsuit in itself.
Having worked in the travel industry and taking great pleasure in making sure my clients got every amenity available, every discount, every extra excursion possible, I have to say that I rarely steered my clients towards cruises because in my personal experience I found them to be not just targets for safety issues but altogether too confining. I've had fellow agents tell me "if you don't have fun on a cruise there's something wrong with you," to which I've replied, "Can I ride a horse on the promenade deck, or climb thru state park trails and see 400 different species of birds on a cruise?" Their collective reactions were either gaping stares or responses like, "That's why you have ports of call." I would tell them that I don't want ports of call, I want to go to a city, a country, a resort, a destination where everything is already available to me, whether I'm looking to experience the Grand Tour of Europe, or an Explorative 14-day Wilderness Expedition Hike into the Yukon. I'm not interested in having to get off and get back on a ship again . And in between having to time everything because the ship has deadlines. There's no fun in that, only more stress and it's from that which I'm trying to get away! And, there are just TOO many things that can go wrong for a person on a ship with 1500 to 3000 other people in close quarters with you. Who wants all that hassle and crowded permission you have to allow for each other! No, when I took someone and their family, or just a single individual on the trip of a lifetime I made sure they'd have an incredible time with loads of perks and no one to get in their way! Even if they went to family resorts like Disney or Six Flags or Cedarpoint.
The risk of disease cross-contamination among passengers on a cruise, should there be some kind of breakout, would be swift and rampant, and a person would have little chance of avoiding contracting it even if they were sequestered to their cabins. Whereas a passenger on a plane, train, hydrofoil, dogsled or horseback need only return to their point of outset, and if too impaired, their guide can either be or get them the help they need.
I always tied up all loose ends, too. I arranged for all their hotels, transfers, tickets, passes, guides, times, meals (kinds), extras on flights and trains, seats, berths, cars--everything along the way and all that would be waiting for them at their point(s) of destination. It was such great fun taking them places all around this country and the world! And it was a tremendousLy gratifying experience as well just getting to know the clients and hearing from them afterwards that they'd had an incredible time.
The magnitude of what a really well-trained travel agent had to know was promethian, but that has become all but obsolete now. And I think that's a bit of a shame, because tourists or passengers don't have a complete picture of what is out there, what I'd available, and what destination or excursion may be dangerous and should be avoided. I see this in the people who've gone missing in countries where there is heavy drug and sex-trafficking, and young women who are independent and who think they have a grip on the world and can venture as they please. If there had been an agent to advise them they'd never have gone to the places that devoured them. People don't have access, or don't know how or what to access when looking to arrange for a vacation. There are travel advisories not just for weather, but for danger because a country is known for its drug cartels, or terrorist activity, or anti-American ethos. There are folks out there that are just plain mean! and if you don't know where on that excursion not to turn you could wind up a statistic. Like the couples' who've disappeared in Bali.
People had an advantage with us, because we also could pull 'strings,' we had discounts that venues accorded us that weren't available to the average passenger.
But maybe that's what Trivago and Expedia and Zicasso are doing for people. I just pray that people do more research before they get their passports.
Lady, no one is going to read this novel.
You need to learn the art of being concise.

My older sis worked for a beautiful resort in Florida. When the wifi cut out because of bad weather people went nuts!!
Onion sandwiches?? Aww come on ppl you overexaggerated that
there were so few rations aboard that we were forced to forgo tea time! Oh it was so frightfully crude!
Lol I had to laugh when that lady said that🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s possible the stored food was damaged by water or smoke from the fire. Also if there’s no electricity then meat, eggs, etc would thaw & spoil. And of course no way to cook it
.
My sis was on the triumph!!her husband is a hospital administrator.they were disgusted with the ordeal.i told them try NCL!!I had great time with NCL🤴
I feel like anyone who gets on a cruise ship has to know they are risking their life. Nothing we make is mechanically foolproof.
Passports before lives. I've been on one of their floating busses - the Victory from 2001 (Went in 2017). We just got done with an 8 day trip on the Disney Fantasy last week. Had any thing even close to that happened .. they would have alerted the cavalry. One of their other 3 nearest ships would have been in route immediately. This is horrifying.
Disney cruises are the best!!
If I were the CEO, I would have sent an empty ship to get the passengers.
which empty ship
Michael Bujaki smart
it’s not that easy. you can’t get passengers on the boat without opening the doors which are underwater..... also the 2 boats would not be able to get close enough for people to transfer over..
Seas are two choppy for ships to be that close
It's not that easy. How would you transport people with their luggage to a new ship?
Am I the only one who thought: thank goodness the ship had a safety system that put out the fire or many people could have died. With all the cruises that take place I’m impressed with how safe they are.
Even without the fire its still a floating Petri dish lmao
They've been trying to totally renovate this ship because it's become known for breaking down at sea, but just this week during renovations it caught fire. Honestly, why would anyone get on this ship?
Sometimes, I'll eat onion sandwiches and poop in little red bags just for fun.
I remember I went on a carnival ship we sailed in the middle of a storm off the coast of Miami I was thrown off my bunk on the top onto my parents bed at the bottom 😂 let's just say I was scared crapless
Livi Nunes what time of year cuz i went 2 years ago in the same conditions and same place
And now that same ship is called the Carnival Sunrise!
This is why I ride Royal Caribbean
Amen!!!
Anything could happen on any ship Royal is my favorite but I was on a Royal ship when a fire broke out in it. Not a good experience. I rather be stranded then a fire
xolatinaxo Grandeur???
My husband and my self would take a cruise each year, one year 2 cruises....the last one I was assaulted, no crew helped, we tried to file a report, not willing to take it, the purser kept telling us no, no, NO....I insisted, so they gave me a piece of paper and had me write down exactly what happened....I am sure they threw it in the trash, no sorry letter, no acknowledgment at all....we learned there is no police, no security at all on a ship...something happens and you are on your own.....needlessly we never took another cruise...I was afraid to leave my cabin, ate sandwiches from room service the whole cruise
imagine being the staff that had to clean up after...
Quitting time.
within 7 hours of being dead in the water, cannibal gangs began roaming the decks searching for victims, while other groups began to form cults, sacrificing other passengers in order to gain protection from the elements
If my room had an outside balcony then there wouldn't be a problem for me
Did you miss the part about the sewerage causing the ceilings to collapse?
Wouldn’t like to be one floor below you!
Obvsily never been on a cruise before,
1:15"I thought we was going to die for a little while"
Me: *visible confusion*
When the ship was filling with smoke or when the ship was listing sure enough, but anything after that is just stupid
like titanic ^^ if they would know anything about titanic they would know that the lights where on until the ship broke into two pieces...
Yea but the costa in 2012 lost power then sunk
@@queenlanapepsicola2338 but they didn't compare it to the Concordia. People just needed to relax and listen to the instructions.
@@queenlanapepsicola2338 Except the Conccodia lost only 32 people compare to the 1500 people Titanic lost and most of them died from the freezing Northern Atlantic waters.

Uuuhhmmmm..... Forget sending food from another ship...how about put me on that ship or that helicopter and get me the hell outta there smh....
exactly!
Thoes ships were full
Those ships were sanitary with running water & toilets. Leaving people for 8 days in unsanitary conditions was dangerous & could have caused a disease epidemic
.
Carnival is the same cruise line that just got caught dumping tons of plastic into the ocean a SECOND time! It would take me a lot before I decided to choose Carnival over Royal Caribbean
RC is just as bad
4:29
That kid wearing that diamond t shirt is having the time of his life 😂
Lmao
Man these people are creative. They built tent cities out of bed sheets and the crew members never gave up to try and comfort the passengers in any way. Don't blame Carnival for this. It was just a ship malfunction and they truly tried to do everything they can.
I went on a carnival cruise this summer I’m glad I didn’t watch this before I left
No one died. Yes they were inconvienced and uncomfortable but I think they over state the case.
You get what you pay for with Carnival cruise line. A simple price comparison in the market will show you that old ships sailing out of Galveston TX are cheaper for a reason. As an avid cruiser, stick with Royal Caribbean or Princess for a safe, responsible cruise line. I was onboard Explorer of the Seas during a hurricane and had to stay at sea an extra day. Everything went smoothly and staff handled it flawlessly. I was on Emerald Princess during the Tsunami that hit Haiti and the staff were all calm and kept everyone well-informed. I can't stress enough...cruises come with many unique challenges, but you get what you PAY for.
Hey I don't know ow if you heard but guess what the princess had an accident of its own to SO SHUT THE HELL UP
Sarah MacFee actually I just got back from carnival triumph and we left from New Orleans $380 for 4 days not bad. It was my first cruise I would definitely go back
Carnival cruises aren’t that cheap. You pay for the days
Sometimes I’m thankful that I can’t afford to go on vacation
My husband was a crew member on the Sapphire Prince and when he started having symptoms that could only be attributed to brain cancer, they denied him a brain scan and gave him aspirin, which is is allergic to. The attending physician recommended a bran scan, but the supervising physician was quoted as saying, "its too expensive". He started bleeding internally from the aspirin. They eventually had to remove him from the ship via ambulance.
I don't believe you.
I’d say the ceos went below normal protocol and barely answered any questions it was decided the news would have to debunk this themselves as they wait for more info from the cruiseline
Carnival is a dollar tree amongst Gucci stores
They should have sent an empty ship from their fleet to pick them all up and transfer them. Even if it meant cancelling another cruise.
Clearly only showing interviews from people who were upset. Plenty of other videos of eye witness accounts that detail it much differently. Accidents happen. these companies are not out to make your life miserable.
My co-worker was on the ship. She said the crew never helped and the majority didn't speak English. She said they had issues before the ship even left port.
ive havent been on a cruise ship before, but if i get to shit into an orange bag.. count me in!
Aironic 89 I’m the person that would just hang my ass over the side and shit in the worlds largest toilet

so basically i go on carnival ships all the time and i talked to my last cruise director about this, she said she was also the cruise director on this particular cruise and that as horrid as it was they did manage to have fun by hosting games etc everyday and they also had one working microphone to do karaoke on. She said that these days if there were an engine fire, the ship would be fine as they now have a backup generator. All ships do because of this incident. :)
Man. I had heard about this incident before, but didn't know that the Triumph is now the Sunrise. I just did a 4 day cruise on the Sunrise from Sept. 30th to Oct. 4th. I couldn't imagine being in this situation.
Yea hopefully it never happens again, they said that they put over 300million in the refurbishment
Fruther investigation revealed that carnival was aware of an increased risk for generator fire and chose to sail anyway without taking any preventative measures. When questioned carnival said "the cruise contract does not guarantee in any circumstance safe travel on sea worthy vessals" another example of the "fun ships" being not so fun. Oh and BTW if Costa Concordia looks familiar, its because its a sister of carnival victory that the company sold to costa. Coincidence?
Ok. While everyone is running up to the top deck to watch the initial billows of smoke, I would be running down to the restaurant hoarding bags and bags of food and water. Hopefully this would go unnoticed. I would make several trips. Then later, I would sell it for a very high price. 1 dinner roll -$5.00.
EA lol I just laughed so hard. you're my twin
EA you would end up being assaulted and thrown overboard.
I would have robbed the bottom decks blind. Lol
Lol🤣🤣🤣
People were already doing this
Some of these people are SOOOOO DRAMATIC!!! All I can say is I'm setting sail on the Triumph in June! And I'm super excited!!!😀😀
This just sounds like a normal Carnival cruise!

Carnival is the ghetto of cruise lines ...
Why am I watching this the night before I go on my cruise ☹️
I remember once when i was younger me and my family went on the triumph and it broke down mid sea. We all went to the stations like it was sinking or on fire. It eventually started back up but looking back it was terrifying.
Why weren't all the Passengers evacuated from the ship on day1???? This is a disgrace.
Omg why did they not use the lifeboats to load on to a other cruise ship
Frainie 12 no cruise ship has that much capacity
AllThingsStarWars I mean send a empty one
Believe me as someone who knows cruise ships a the other ships were likely full b it’s really risky using lifeboats like that in those sea conditions
The life board cant be lowered like the titanic. They are electronic.
TheBlueComet 833 don’t they have emergency hand lowers for this situation. If not they need to add it.
I went on this ship years ago..this was unbelievable.
You know What s funny about this? People from the 1800s had to deal like that until the 1930s 😂
Electricity was available in the 1880s
I remember the Press Conference! "Because of all the suffering, The Only Family that will be left Alive, Anywhere, is The Royal Family, and Cleopatra!"
It should be mandatory that 2 master mechanics are on board every time a ship sales and the ship owners should be responsible for any accidents/rescues
Hmmm... How can a few bad cruises warrant government intervention. The government would just make things worse.
8:13 “and then they want to insult us by giving us 500 dollars” 😵😂 I’m dead
"helicopters dropped off generators". The single biggest oversight is not having backup generators that can at least sustain running water and cooking facilities until the ship can get to land...

No Carnival cruise for me.

I've been going on carnival and nothing bad happen to me

Cheap cruise = worse time.
What is this "I survived Triumph" crap? I mean, really? You were without electricity and toilets, oh my god. I'm pretty sure that's not a life or death situation. And god forbid they have no cellphones and electricity!! People act like they had no food or water at all, but they did! Just because it wasn't enough food to make you completely full and the food wasn't a 5 star meal doesn't mean you starved. The situation was just uncomfortable! People have become so soft! It's a man made vessel, things are bound to go wrong from time to time! Jesus, why is everyone acting like their lives where threatened?
+Kewol but really? "I survived" ? That's stupid. I'm sure it was pretty miserable but people over react
Well still it's the end of the world real people would be happy to be alive and that only
+Kaylee Wilbers exactly, people should be glad that it wasn't a life threatening situation. The ship wasn't even sinking, idk why people complain about "only getting 500 dollars" like you should be thankful they are even paying you, they shouldn't even have to do that. They got them home safely, they should be thankful for that.
+jessi smoot Yeah I am 60 and grew up on a farm with no phone, no running water (outhouse and a pump only), no TV. I think it was a good experience for those people to thank what they have.
+Kevin Muxfeldt exactly, people need to realize that it could have been worse and it probably made a good life experience for them.
Ok so lesson learned never cruise with Carnival and never say that everything is going to be ok when it's clearly not 💯
I’m so glad I saw this after my carnival cruise last month.....
I just booked for May and Idk why I'm looking at this. Well, I have life insurance just in case....
A bit exaggerative for sure. This is why some ppl are so afraid to cruise too because of the news treating it like it's just a huge disaster. Sure it may be uncomfortable and ruin your trip but they offered the ppl refunds, a cruise voucher, cash and refunds on travel expenses. And honestly this is something that doesn't happen very often either. There are more car wrecks and plane problems than there are cruise problems. Unfortunately these things are on sea though were things can become unpredictable and since these things are like cities on a ship there can be technical difficulties occasionally but this is honestly one of the safest and most fun ways to travel.
Amanda Burnett couldn’t have said it better myself
nice to watch this before my cruise :)
4:44 A stylish way of indicating the inconvenience
I find it hard to feel sorry for people on cruise ships. They aren't on there out of necessity, they chose the ship to be served and entertained likely at the lowest price possible. Someone on a ship fleeing a war torn country, that's tragic.
That women turning her nose at $500 compensation when it's like her monthly salary lol
csm that was more than generous
csm right lol like they gave them another cruise for free plus $500.. I'd take it lol
@Gregory Smith Every passenger got a full refund of their expenses free cruise and $500 in compensation and what pain and suffering? There ware no incident related deaths or injuries those people simply overreacted (in fact that the only thing that pissed me off about this case) and wanted to get some more money out of the deal while I think what they ware offered was more than generous.
In summery at the end of the day they didn't pay anything and walked out with $500 in their pockets and free cupon for a next ride….
Pain and Suffering…...pfff first world problems thats sad…..
With all these americans saying they should be happy with $500 I'm over here like does $500 mean something different in your country.
$500 is nothing that's like getting a snickers bar and saying glad your not dead
My first ever cruise was on the Carnival Sunrise which was formally known as the Carnival Triumph.
