- Carnival should ban this family. There is nothing worse that the tranquility of cruising being disrupted and when it is it should be dealt with swiftly. Out of control cruisers a Carnival cruise ship.

I believe that the cruise staff should have stepped in and removed them. Period!!!
I believe they should be at least banned from any shows on the ship. Should have been reported to cruise staff and guest services. You are much more patient than I would have been.
Dream on. That ain't happening.
And perhaps walk the plank!😅
They could have that’s were unfortunately freedom of speech comes in to play. Warning them multiple times could have helped
@@leocatcruises Probably busy polishing hand rails! LOL
I had a similar experience on a commercial flight one time when a young couple and their small girl were in the row behind me. No sooner had everyone sat down than the child started screaming and kicking the back of my seat repeatedly. After a few moments of this, I turned around and politely asked them to control their child. The mother's response: "She's only 5." My response: "You aren't." That took care of it.
Frightful. At least you can leave a show if you are developing the temptation to bash someone.
But you can't leave a flight.
Good response!!!
Five is plenty old enough how to act in public.
Had a family in a restaurant when my family was dining out. The little boy. 5-6 yrs old kept turning around in his booth and talking and hitting us in the head and basically being a pest. Politely ask them to control him, moms response was he is to young and just full of energy, I explained to her in front of waitress if the mom would turn his little head until his neck popped he would sit still. The appalled family got up and left. 😅
@@Mechnx😊😅😅Good
I had a similar experience Tony and also found it annoying. I simply stood up in front of the talking teenagers. Eventhly they tapped me on the shoulder asking politely if I minded sitting down because they could not see. I then replied "I would be happy to sit down, perhaps you woud consider shutting up so I can hear the performance." Seemed to work as we did not hear a peep out of them the rest of the night.
Dang Larry. Well done.😮😂
Good idea 👍
Perfection
that's just Ludicrous
Well played social engineering?
As a Disney expert, I’ve become very good at locating an employee and alerting them to situations like this. I’ve gotten families kicked out of theme parks over misbehaving children. I don’t put up with ill-behaved children. Or adults.
obtaining the Disney expert level must be really expensive degree to obtain.. I bet it cost more than a 4 year degree at university. lol.
@@tt2778You are definitely not wrong. $17 Mickey Pancakes?!?! Pancakes!!! Lol
Just got off a Disney Alaskan cruise today. Definitely watched a couple of kids being kicked out of a venue. Thanks Disney! Also, Virgin and Viking are 100% brat free, so definitely try them if you don’t want to deal with kids. We definitely could use more child free lines.
@@tt2778 nah. We have a son and daughter-in-law who both work for Disney and live just three or four miles from the Magic Kingdom at WDW. We go visit two or three times per year. No cost for lodging, no cost for park admission, and cast member discounts on food & merchandise make for a pretty cheap Disney trip. Plus, we learn all the secrets from people who actually work there - including how to subtly get a cast member’s attention.
I get what you’re saying, but a cruise and Disney are two completely different circumstances. If you go to a CHILDREN’s theme park, you should expect hot, upset, misbehaving children. On a cruise ship, it’s a different story.
You are better than me, Tony. I would have stood up, turned around and said, "Do you mind not screaming?" This would have at least alerted staff there is a problem and probably embarrassed them enough to stop. If it bothered you, it was most likely disturbing others too.
I would of said the same thing 👍🏼
Yes! Why just a “look”? Say something.
Do you really believe that people who would do this in the first place have any capacity to be embarrassed?
I would have "accidentally on purpose " stood up n faked tripping , whilst tipping my cold soda all over her. Give her a Real reason to scream! Lol.
I once shushed people at a movie theater twice because they were chatting away. When a friend came and started talking out loud, I turned around and said, "Shut up!! We're trying to watch a movie here!" They were quiet after that.
I work in retail, and I can honestly say we are doomed as a society. People suck.
Same here I work at a grocery store and because of what I encounter from some or most of the customers I dread going to work most of the time and I get a tension headache almost every shift…. But I digress I also agree we are doomed as a society because people really do suck.
@@tiffanysanchez9184 Are people worse now than say five or 10 years ago? I get my groceries delivered so I can avoid the whole thing. I am sorry for what you have to experience .
@@gigi9301 it's steadily getting worse. I've been in retail and food service for 10 years. It was already slowly getting bad before the pandemic, but it definitely took a HARD turn into blatant hostility during the height of that time. It's gotten so bad, I can't do it anymore. I'm currently looking for a career change.
@@NyxOnyx96 You are obviously Pretty Smart; you can compose sentences and figure out that retail and food service are not the shit. I turned in my grease-soaked visor from Mc D around 1985 because I realized I wanted more. That was three lifetimes ago; obviously, you have been loyal and expected a steady income for a steady situation. Is there a rec center where you live or a gym nearby? Is your dream to do kind of the same thing with less stress or a complete shift?
@@gigi9301 I'm in the process of trying to start my own small business. I just need to figure out which online platform I want to use to sell my handmade items. Until then, I'm going to apply for a vendor stall at a local market.
My family has special needs children and if anyone of them had a meltdown like that, we feel it is our duty to remove them from the area. Some kids can't handle the stimulation of stage shows and it sounds as if that is what the problem was here. SHAME on the parents for allowing it to continue. And, if the child was just misbehaving, DOUBLE SHAME. I can't believe someone from the crew didn't step in. However, some parents are worse to deal with than a screaming child, so who knows.
My son has special needs and we don’t go on trips like this because it’s too much for him.
Idk if that sounded like the same problem. We had kids 2 kids who had sensory issues who would never go on a cruise or to a show when they were younger. A teenager shrieking though? I would've said something. Everyone knows that's not appropriate. I think that was just self entitlement
Edit: at the very least, I would've found a staff member
I like the idea of standing up and blocking their view.
We had a similar experience on the Carnival Magic in December of 22. A VERY drunk woman had been a spectacle all day around the pool area and of course she ended up with 2 old men draped all over her right in the center of the comedy show we wanted to see. The show was packed and they were so loud and obnoxious you couldn’t hear the comedian. The man behind them asked them to please let others enjoy the show, which only made them more entitled and even louder. He asked one more time, with the same response from the drunks, before he left the theatre with his frustrated group. The drunks did a victory howl that they had “won”. At this point a crew member did step in and tell the people they would be removed if they didn’t quiet down so others could hear which the drunks found hilarious. So then they loudly laughed and shooshed each other. We still couldn’t hear the show so we left too, along with a lot of other people around them. Sad that 3 drunk jerks ruined a good time for everyone. Don’t get me wrong, we drink, but if you are falling down sloppy and obnoxious drunk, go to your room and sleep it off.
But apparently they were not removed?? They should have been given just a couple minutes and then removed so other people did not have to leave. So sad. 😢😢
Things that used to be frowned upon are now so often over looked. Sad.
They have a brig on board for a reason. I saw a person with an officer outside her room keeping her from leaving for several days. Not sure what she did.
we were just on the Legend and a few families sent their kids in for the front row to get ALL of the seat. I found a person from the entertainment team to inform them that were were NOT allowed to hold the WHOLE row. We took the seats we wanted (2 of them) and sat there. The parents sat down and complained telling me they sent their kids there to hold all the seats. I called the same person from the staff over again and she informed them that it is FESTIVAL SEATING and that the kids will NOT be allowed to hold seat for others!
I agree with you 100%. Every show I went to on Celebrity in May, I encountered all 3 of those problems. I think before the show begins, they should include with their announcement to please refrain from talking during the performance. As for being late, there's no excuse. They couldn't have hit traffic 😊
They should close the doors once the performance starts! Then maybe, allow latecomers in to sit in the back row.
I agree!!!! I am a retired music teacher and I always worked so hard to teach my kids in class about proper performance and concert etiquette…and then I would meet their parents who would talk and visit and would cheer their kids on during the performance! Had one who even answered their cell phone and had a convo during one of the songs. The rule was the doors are shut when the show begins and you don’t let anyone enter or exit except between songs. This is a little trickier because most of the performances the songs just go from one to the next but there has to be something they could do. We love all the shows and the music…one of our favorite things on the ships!
@@sandycazzell1338Good for you, really. Unfortunately, etiquette is a dying art in this country.
Tony, you are right! Unbelievable the cruise staff didn't address the issue and shame on the parents for allowing the bad behavior. No way would I, as a teenager in the 60s, do that (it'd be the last thing I did after my parents found out!), nor would I have allowed my children or grandchildren today to rudely disregard others. Sadly, if parents don't contain their children, the staff should intervene.
Without someone alerting them, the staff probably didn't realize it. Something should have been said.
And now he wants them banned but couldn't bring himself to say anything at the time
My mom often had 4 boys between 2-8 on her own at church, we learnt very quickly that we didn't want to attract attention 😂
It's not hard to teach your kids to be quiet when they could disturb innocent bystanders... planes, restaurants, shows... Hell, even I managed with my kids
This is one of the reasons my wife and I always pick our cruises when school is not out on vacation. However we once cruised during College Break. Who knew college kids cruised. Our first night one extremely drunk college kid spent his entire time in our hot tub trying to pick up my wife. We didn't see him till the next morning after his arrest and deportation from the ship to our first island. We asked and were told he was tossing huge chess pieces into the sea from a board game painted on the deck for peoples use. The King he threw overboard was four foot high and obviously expensive and made specifically for the cruise line. Not only did this kid have to pay for his trip home but his daddy was getting a big bill for said chess pieces.
So cool you sailed on the Spirit! As one of the performers in this cast, I appreciate that you really value being a respectful audience member and preach theatre etiquette so thank you for coming to our shows! Even though this was 6 months ago haha..
I would have asked someone from the ship to remove them.
Ditto!
Me too
God help us what is wrong with people.😢
These ships don't sail under american or Canadian flags. Usually a tax haven or loose country. As such, could've slapped the kid or screamed in their face. If parents say anything, tell them to be parents then and that there's nothing they can do.
@@yuki-sakurakawaactually you would still be arrested if you strike a child even if in international waters. That is not the way to handle it
The older I get, the less I want to be around kids or teens on a vacation type trip. I REALLY hope someone watching your show knows who this is and points out to them how annoyingly disruptive their kids are.😖
I feel the same about kids/teens
me too
Totally agree.
Adults only cruise! That's what I'm booking.
Virgin or Viking are the lines for you. They don’t to.erase children on their ships. Completely child free. We need more lines like that 😂
I have noticed that, the only people who get banned for behavior, are people who are consistently late returning to the boat after going ashore. On one of my Carnival cruises, we had waited on a couple that (three times in a row, ) were late enough returning that we were on the verge of departing all three times. On this occasion, they announced their names numerous times, and confined them to their rooms for the rest of the cruise.
I've been on two cruises. Cruise number one: People had a fistfight in the laundry room. They were locked in their cabins and booted off the next island. Two women were caught stealing from the jewellery shop on board, about halfway through the cruise, and they were locked in, booted off into the police custody at next docking. Cruise number 2: Woman was locked in her cabin after becoming drunk, abusive, and goading passengers, I was one.
Twice during the last two cruises I've taken in the last couple months I've had to turn around and ask people who were incessantly talking why they would come to a show, why wouldn't they just go to some other part of the ship and carry on their conversation. In both instances, it shut them up immediately thank goodness
You got to speak up in these situations. Ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. Saying something in the moment is the only way.
Exactly, it could had been solved be he just sat there and now is asking them to ban the family... Based on what? You can't ban people for that
I can only hope that the daughter is somewhat special needs. As the father of a special needs child, we do attempt to go to the shows, but I know when it is time to remove ourselves from the event. The last thing that we want is to interfere with the performance or the enjoyment of the performance. For a completely able child to act like that is socially unacceptable.
I applaud you as a parent. Trying to give your child an experience but being realistic when to say when.
I agree. I was thinking turret syndrome but yes the parents should have removed themselves
I think special needs or not, the parents need to know when it's time to remove their child from the situation. I consider it quite bad parenting.
If the child was special needs, the parents probably wouldn’t chose to be up front. They would be in the back or on the side so they could vacate quickly if needed. This was probably just a teen on a power trip.
Same here, my daughter is autistic, and she likes talking during movies and dancing. She is only 10 and we are planning on going on our first cruise next year. I would hope that if this would happen I would remove her from the situation, like send her to the kids club before the show started.
You are a patient man Tony. No one in my family would have sat there and not said something. I’m pretty sure we would have been the ones banned for life over our reactions….
Agree with everything you said. We just had a conversation with our kids yesterday, if they ever acted crazy or stupid on a cruise we would ban them for life. 😂.
Yep. Just like anything else. Parents needed to step up and remove them from the situation. Too much "me" culture going on instead of learning how to behave properly.
But if you child had no control over it and it was a medical problem that’s different
😂😂😂😂
@@robinmcclanahan8979 In this situation, with all that was known, the chance of it being a medical problem was between zero and none. Let's stop with the excuses for these deadbeat parents.
They should be banned from attending any show. I would have called an attendant in the theater and asked that they be removed. I agree with you Tony and Get off my lawn.
In 25 cruises I don't remember ever seeing an attendant at the theatre. 1 or 2 bartenders running crazy trying to serve drinks but no attendants. Maybe that's the problem why we have to put up with rude entitled people.
I'm booked to go on a cruise next year, my first one in 13 years. To try and get caught up with what has changed and what new things to expect, I watch videos like this and also joined a couple of Carnival Facebook groups. The main thing I've noticed, in these groups people will sometimes express a pet peeve, and so many times the overwhelming response is "I/we're/they're on vacation, we've paid our money, we can do whatever we want." Consideration of your fellow man and common courtesy seem to be almost extinct. Can't say I'm not a little concerned, because I don't have the patience this guy had.
I heard the shrieking and assumed someone brought their 3 year old to an evening show (which would also be annoying, but a little forgivable). I was stunned when you said this was a teenage girl. And the parents were there too?!?!?! You know if you’d be said anything they’d be the type to start a “carnival brawl” over it.
That's ridiculous those parents should've stopped their kids from doing that
After hearing many of your stories, I have to self reflect and believe I may have an overly aggressive and confrontational streak. I literally cannot fathom just letting this go. My immediate thought was “I’m give ya something to scream about!”
I am with you! 😊
Yeah - ditto. I would have confronted the parents and then reported them to staff during the show
I agree that confrontation is necessary, but your approach is asking for a fistfight in the theater. IMO it would be to quietly go find the cruise staff and ask them to intervene. This is less disruptive to the rest of the theater and the bad actors will be reluctant to argue with cruise staff. This is the same approach we take with annoying passengers on a plane - we always ask the stewardess to deal with them.
Problem is that reaction could also get YOU banned. Better to quietly go talk to security about them.
@@johnsimion2893 I agree with you on this.
I am with you on this! The only thing I could think of doing to help end it would be to quietly get up and find a staff member, security preferred, and ask the staff to have a conversation with the parents about the behaviour (or misbehaviour in this case) of their children.
Sorry to hear that you all had this going on behind you. :(
My pet peeve is the seat saving. Too many times to count, I’ve tried to take a seat, only to be told that it was…as you say, saved…sometimes an entire row. Well, on my last cruise, I was traveling just after having a fairly severe knee injury. My husband and I were looking for a seat, at the water show, and I managed to hobble down several steps, with great difficulty, to where the open seats were located. This was no small feat for me,…not to mention that I’m almost 70 years old. When I got there and sat down, a man in what appeared to me, to be his early 40’s, turned to me and said…”Those seats are saved”. Well, guess what? I looked him directly in the eyes and told him that I was not moving and that he should know that, before every show, there is always an announcement that saving of seats is strictly prohibited. Needles to say, he was as mad as a wet hen, however all of the people around me actually applauded or gave me a thumbs up. When his party came, he loudly proclaimed that I had stolen their seats, but they didn’t really seem to mind. In the future, I’ll most likely look for another seat, as long as I don’t have any injury, making that difficult, but should the same situation occur, if anyone gives me any grief, I’ll just call over an employee. Hopefully, no one will rip a 70 year old lady out of her seat, before the employee can intervene.
Right there with you!!! I get so annoyed when people, of any age, misbehave intentionally. And to know their parents were just letting it continue....😡😡😡
Just had a cruise early June. Took a 12 yr old that loved the shows and was very verbal afterwards about the rude people that entered late, chatted, giggled about videos they were watching on their phones, and how cruising has changed. ALL from a 12 yr old! Yes, times have changed and we canNOT blame Covid. Parents had more opportunities to teach manners, and instead many lost their own!
Rude, entitled behavior has become the norm, unfortunately. I’m afraid it’s getting worse. Kudos to the 12 year-old for recognizing the problem and verbalizing dissatisfaction. My hope in humanity is restored.
Kudos to your 12 year old. In a few days we are headed on a cruise with my 10 year old grandson. He will evaluate peeps's rudeness and we will have post event discussions.
@@rosshageman951 I will keep an eye out for that follow up. Enjoy your cruise and hope you make some great memories.
@@SandyToes75 headed to Alaska.
Enjoy Alaska….I love it! Am fortunate enough to have family living there & always hate coming home to California.
You were way more patient than I would of been! I would have had a visit with the parents afterward.
My husband and I went early to find a seat at the show on our first day of our cruise. About five minutes later, a huge family of about 20 or so, came and sat around us. When the show started, they started to scream, Holler, yell at the top of their lungs, whistle very loud and rudely. It was horrible. My husband and I were very embarrassed, because we were afraid others would think we were part of this obnoxious group. We observed many people started leaving the show. We did not return to another show that entire cruise. And by the way… We were sitting right next to the audio engineering area. There was actually one person sitting up there not really doing anything that could have gone over and said something to that group, but did not.
We recently encountered horribly rude passengers on the Voyage of the Seas last week. So many showed up late to the main production and tried to find seats in the dark, blocking our view and creating a horrible distraction. I do wish cruise lines would close the door and refuse admission to the main seating area once the show has started. They could shuffle people up to the balcony area, instead. Self centered behaviors, such as this audience behavior and horrible elevator etiquette, are big turn offs for me, but we must endure. I'm like your brother, though, If the show was not enjoyable for me, for whatever reason, I'd find the best possible transition moment to vacate, and I would likely report the nuisance to management.
Hopefully friends of them see this.
I disagree espicially since RCCL started multiple shows on the cruise we were on last week at the same time they opened adventure ocean so we had no choice but to be 10 minutes late since there is a line for drop off and then the walk from one side of the ship to the other. We never disrupted anyone, I know better than that we sat in the very back. The shows are not appropriate for young children so they provide child care, but not letting you drop off your kids until the same time the show starts is stupid. Cruise lines need to plan better.
Why should the balcony people suffer? It is full too.
Exactly. It’s also disrespectful to the performers.
If this was Broadway or the opera,late comers have to wait until intermission, so these idiots needed to have been asked to wait. If they made reservations for the show and missed the time,they should have cancelled the reservations
So many parents these days want to be their kids best friend instead of an actual parent. Security should have removed them from the show.
Maybe I'll start bringing a police whistle on the cruises ...
Someone needed to go get a security. That's what I would have done. No looks, no interaction. Let a security deal with it.
@@Lisa-je5bb "bingo"
I agree 100% and also feel the same way about Production shows. I just did my first Princess cruise (the Ruby) and was disappointed that there was not a Production show each night like on other cruise lines I've been on.
I agree with you , Tony. I would have had a hard time sitting through the show.
Did you use the word excurt? I love it!
My experience is, that cruise staff are very reluctant to intervene against poor behavior. They are afraid of offending the wrong doers and the rest of us suffer.
@berniekirk1397 That is why they have a security team on board. You don't complain about bad behavior to a waiter or an usher. It's not their job to mitigate bad behavior. Now, if the security team does not take care of the problem then you take your complaint to the operations officer who is responsible for all on board activity. Nobody should ever let bad behavior continue because they don't want to make a scene or don't want a confrontation.
@@FlaThunderstorm agreed. People keep getting away with acting like this because others let them.
He didn't even tell staff hence why staff didn't get involved. Not rocket science.
We had a similar experience with teenagers & young kids interrupting shows and running the halls on a Princess cruise 10 years ago on a 10 day sailing in the Mediterranean. About mid-way through the sailing, the Captain came on the speaker and announced to everyone the families (multiple) were banned from ever sailing on Princess again and action was taken against the families.
I bet there was much rejoicing after that announcement. 😊
Wow!!!!!!
After reading your comment, I imagined people cheering & clapping in their rooms and on the decks! 😂🎉🎉🎉
@@celia61597lol yep I bet there was, too!
Wow! Good for Princess cruise lines! I’ve been on 3 different cruise lines ( Princess was the first), and other cruise lines don’t even match up! Love Princess lines!
And then all the passengers clapped. I remember, I was there.
You go Tony! I am with you 100%!
Tony, I aspire to exercise temperance as you do in situations like this. You are a better person than me. More power to you!
I would have gotten up and gone to security and tell them to get those people out of there! That's ridiculous.
I would like to say that I’m surprised that the parents didn’t say anything but I’m not nowadays. The parents are the very reason those teenagers have such poor manners.
That is so true unfortunately! But I definitely would have turned myself around and said something. Lol 😂
It doesn't matter which cruise line your on cruise staffers should be around to ensure this kind of stuff isn't happening.
We were in a Princess theater last week and the 2 comedians had the house lights on for the 1st ten minutes and basically ridiculed each person or persons who came in late. It went on fir 10 minutes and was hilarious!
Loved the video…but I almost didn’t make it through this when the screeching noise started looping😂 Thanks for that😏
Not enough chlorine in the gene pool. I have had a similar problem and, I took it for a while hoping the parents would do something. Finally I turned around and said, "I know you are obviously very important people and what you have to say is obviously way more important than what is going on during the performance" So I turned around and just continued to watch and listen to them. They got so uncomfortable....they left.
That's awesome what you did. I always want to say "I can't hear you, talk louder".
I probably would have started my video recording and played it back to Guest Services and Security, making sure faces of the family were clearly visible. Security could easily use that to identify the family and determine consequences.
Love the intro music! Got a new fan here!
Love your editing Tony 😆
If I had someone like that screaming directly behind me, it would likely startle me to such an extent that the soda in my cup would fly over my shoulder directly at them. I would of course get up and apologize as I go to refill my glass, and return hoping that I do not get startled again
if you were to do that to me YOU WOULDNT BE ABLE to get up
@@po5832 If they threw a soda on you for screaming you would assault them to the point they couldnt stand up? That's what you're saying?
@po5832 then maybe you shouldn't be a self entitled prick by screaming the whole time?
@@sarao8074 Oh it on now. UMMMM HUMMMMM
Very plausible.
You are totally right Tony. You have more patience than me. I would of turned around and said something. If that did not work, I would of gotten a staff member to intervene. That behavior is unacceptable and made even worse by the parents allowing it to happen. Nothing surprises me anymore.
My last cruise we got to listen to "It hurts! You're hurting me!" Followed by giggling from 3:00 - 4:30AM....
What a horrific experience. I’m really surprised that an employee handling the audience logistics, etc., didn’t step in and tactfully give a warning and follow up if needed, which is exactly what happened when my family and friends were watching “Six” on a recent Norwegian cruise!
What I want to know is, why didn't someone usher them out of the theater?? I would have gotten up and complained immediately. Ugh. Maybe I'm old too but just NO.
We are in a new reality. No one wants to confront other people. You end up on video, or beat up, or worse. We all just start ignoring it. Look at recent incidents on subways or buses if the disruptive person gets violent, it’s just worse for everyone. Better to just let it go unfortunately. If anyone made a scene you run the risk of also getting banned.
Tony, it’s hard to understand why someone from the ship such as a theater staff member or usher couldn’t intervene.
There was a TV show a long time ago, I love Lucy, where Lucille Ball was in a restaurant and a celebrity (I think it was Jack Benny playing himself) came in and sat at the next table. She kept staring at him, making all of these excuses to walk by the table and just in general making a nuisance of herself. When she finally sat down, Jack turned around and kneeled in his seat and just stared at her without talking for about 5 minutes…Lucy got so flustered that she and her companion left the restaurant. Wonder if that works on a cruise ship….everyone with you just turns around, kneels in the seat and stares at the offending passengers without saying a word.😂
I'm with you !!!
Whoa, a teenager?! I would have thought a toddler was shrieking like that! People just don’t get how to behave during live performances anymore. I think I might have overcome my usual quietness and said something to the family. One shriek is enough- from a toddler.
You are 110% right. Feel bad for the kids to have been raised by parents who don't know any better and did not instill any kind of respect for others into them.
AMEN
I love this video your my new fav
I love your "air quotes" and when you "used them" I thought about "Chris Farley" living in a "van" down by the "river". 😅😂😅😂😅😅😂
Still think carnival should have at least 3 adult only ships I bet they would have fully booked cruises all year long
I've cruised 51 times on several cruise lines and many ships. I can assure you that bad behavior is not unique to Carnival. Selfish people are everywhere, even at your local McDonald's. More experience with other cruise lines will show you this. P.S. see other posts.
If this happened I would actually consider carnival.
Tony really tried to make us feel a similar level of frustration & annoyance with that screaming 😂
And succeeded 😒
Right!
I agree 100% with you! That girl was utterly obnoxious and the fact that the parents sat there with her and allowed it shows just how entitled and spoiled they all are.
Love your sense of humor! Your list of do nots is 💯
I was on a MSC cruise in Europe this spring. It held 6400 people and customer service said over 6200 people were onboard and over 2500 were children. It was a nightmare cruise…doors slamming, hard, constantly…kids jumping off the third step to the landing, parents and kids running and screaming down the halls at all hours, the ship was waaaaaay over max. This ship had enough beds for everyone but did not have enough infrastructure for the number of people on board. There was not enough room anywhere. It was absolute bedlam!!!! I spent my time in my room, the casino and one adult only bar. It was MSC virtuosa which is a Gorgeous ship with great food..just waaaaay over capacity with a lot of very rude families.
What’s wrong with jumping from the third step to the landing? I’ve done that as an adult.
You picked the WRONG SHIP msc is a LOW LIFE CRUISE LINE < CHEAP BUT NO CIGAR< you paid for what you a get a CATTLE CAR ON THE OCEAN< and Another NO NO is Carnival, POS shit cruise line, Just for new Drug or beer drinking idiots who can afford 3-4 day on the Beer Cruise to Nowhere. So if you want to ENJOY your cruise pay a little more, leverage the specials and enjoy you time NOT WASTE IT>
My friends, who are notorious homebodies, have just got back from an Iceland/ Norway trip on the MSC Virtuosa. They had a fabulous time. They did make the effort to chat with the crew and were looked after beautifully. Not everybody treated the crew well. Looks like you had an unfortunate time, which is a shame.
That's an unusual number of kids for a cruise. I"ve never seen that and the kids I see are never a problem. Was it some special cruise that kids would like or during a school break? A group cruise?
@@brendahamblin4559 that's awesome, we met an older English couple on our last MSC cruise and they were going to do that one. It sounds beautiful. I've never seen kids being a problem on a cruise and I don’t think it is a reflection on MSC. They're Italian, maybe more family oriented - although I hear that they don’t treat their crew very well. Another cruise vlogger (Jay of Shiplife) calls them medieval shipping co! Pretty funny 😁
I am soooo here for this rant! Love the passion, Tony, and you're totally right! I would have lost it!
We just got back from an Alaska cruise and we have a similar experience. We had some very noisy cabin neighbors. Kid were running up and down the hallway, yelling at each other, beating on the doors, slamming the doors, and just being all around loud and rude. Wouldn't be so bad if it was during the day when everyone was awake but this was at night when everone was sleeping. Their parents were just as bad. Our next cruise will be when kids are at school. I understand kids want to have fun too but they also need some common sense and some manners.
Happy 4th my friend...🎉
Hey Tony 👋. You know what, I really hate when parents don't keep their children in check. I mean you really think this kind of behavior is ok and you're not going to say anything? Unfortunately this isn't just on cruise ships, I have had to actually turn around in a movie theater to have a word with the parents of a kid who constantly kicks my chair. So please people, keep your children from ruining cruises for other people. This is why I'm trying Virgin Voyages next year. 😅
You are 1000% correct. Parents need to step up and correct their kids when they behave in a manner that is disrespectful to others.
You are totally right. Some people are too lazy to discipline thier kids. Depending on my mood I probably would've told them something or just moved.
you are RIGHT !!! I hate when people arrive late in the theater
Things like this happen around me all the time…talking and noise at the movie theatres, bad behaviour at a concert, line cutting everywhere and anywhere etc. My husband hopes I won’t notice or say anything because I have no patience for bad manners, thoughtlessness or entitlement. I believe we just took our last cruise because of the behaviours of some people and the lack of follow up to the rules from the cruise lines. We have to fly from NB Canada, stay at least 1 overnight in the port city in order to cruise and we are fed up with the cost to do so measured against the rudeness & entitlement of sooooo many people. I feel this family that sat behind you should have AT LEAST been kicked out of the theatre. I guess poorly behaved children are acceptable now.
@bethelaine5821
Also so many poorly behaved so called adults these days. We are really no longer a civilized society when there are so many uncivilized among us.
Now you know why firearms are not allowed on board ships 😂
🤣🤣🤣.
Hi Tony, it's sad that these things happen not only during the live entertainment on a cruise but during a movie at the theater. My family and I have left shows and movies because of this happening. While at the movies I get a refund, it will not help during a cruise unless there is another showing.
I will get up and let cruise staff know about the situation and wait for them to handle the situation prior to returning to my seat. The family or group will know that I was the one that complained but it's the price of getting to watch the entertainment without the disruptions.
I would also thank the staff afterwards and sometimes speak with the cruise director to let him or her know of the situation and how well the staff handled it.
We’ve had this happen and it’s sooo annoying! I turned around and hushed them and made eye contact with the parents. They left the show early.
Bad parenting skills...even more surprising that the parents where present and had the audacity to let their children behave this way. Their actions speak a thousand words, they should be ashamed of theirselves.
Oh heeeellllllllll no!! That family would get the reaction they were looking for from me. And you’re right, Tony. That’s probably the worst but I do NOT tolerate shrieking. And you really should put their faces out there. Public shaming is effective. Ask all the Karens
I agree with you, Tony!!
You are so right!
We had almost the same exact thing happen during a show on our cruise. Minus the parents and plus a couple more teen friends that had just been met on the ship. Fortunately for us, carnival crew escorted them out after only about three of those shrieks! 🤦🏽♀️ my head cannot wrap around the planet that they came from to think it was at all funny in the first place. I’m all for a good prank, but couldn’t find the humor even when I tried… hard!
They are trying to get a Tik Tok video when someone confronts them
@@marciar8909ahhhh good point! These younger generations are truly lost
@@marciar8909and parents could be trying to get someone to tell them to go and if the child is special needs attempting to get a payday for discrimination
As a fellow Long Islander , I am shocked the Jenny B look didn’t work ! Where are the cruise officers ???
lol 😂@ just the title and picture alone
Not on a cruise ship, but there was a similar incident that happened in a show at Six Flags a couple of years back. My mom and I were enjoying the night out at their halloween event and decided to watch one of the shows and a couple of kids from all the way to the other side of the stadium decided to scream at the entertainers and make suggestive remarks. They can be heard in the entire place and this stadium was not small either. My mom was trying to record the show but they kept interrupting. Everyone was fed up with them and multiple of people reported to the security.
At least we had good seats away from everyone!
Idk what it is about Six Flags and halloween weekends (At least at Great Adventure), but a lot of the teens during those times are extremely obnoxious- especially on the sky ride when a good chunk of them yell at strangers to get a reaction out of them.
Love your channel. I agree with everything you said. It’s just another example of what’s going wrong with everything nowadays; not just on cruise ships.
I would have had security talk to them!
I agree with you Tony 😮
The “Jenny look” made me laugh…..I am from New York and I recently did the same on our MSC Cruise😂
I’m going on a cruise in a couple of weeks with my teenage kids. They get the weekly Come to Jesus talk in the weeks leading up to the cruise in that if they do ANYTHING that requires cruise staff intervention or annoying to other cruisers that they will not only go on future trips, they will be confined to their cabins for the remainder of the cruise and will only get “grab & go” food for all meals..which will be ate in their cabin. I don’t believe in internet packages for cruises, so that could be a very long week for them!
ARGH! I would have said something first, then found staff to have them removed. I've been in movie theaters where teenagers are behind us talking loudly and living on their phones while my family is trying to enjoy a movie. Or the family with such loud snacks that it sounds like Santa's elves are behind us wrapping 50 Christmas presents - I'm shocked I'm not in jail yet!
And I can't believe the teenagers did that in front of the parents! Or that the parents allowed it to happen! When my two kids were younger, I was always overdoing the "I don't want to be that family" feeling. As soon as one of my kids got loud, they were instantly spoken to, and if that didn't work, I carried them immediately out of the area for an additional talking to.
You should be applauded for your restraint.
Idk how I came across this video but the screeching story is too funny!
I would have been furious as well, this is why I chose a mostly adult cruise!! Good video!😊😊
You are correct. Why didn't a staff member speak to them? This behavior should not be tolerated. Kids today have no home training.
Had something similar happen recently and realized that the girl was special needs, which at least explained the behavior but didn't lessen the distraction. I get that the parents wanted to enjoy the activity and that they wanted to include their daughter, but they had little concern for everyone else's enjoyment or lack thereof. If she wasn't special needs, then there is no excuse for her behavior or her parents not putting a stop to it.
We were on the Harmony with our granddaughter and went to see Grease. We sat behind two older women thinking that was a good spot. WELL, these ladies had their cell phones up recording the ENTIRE time………right in front of our faces!!!! Up high in the air!!! No staff members stopped them at all. Our granddaughter was too embarrassed for me to say anything. Needless to say we had no other option because this was a summer cruise and the shows were completely booked up!
Can’t be more agree!
Respect should be taught at a very young age and continued throughout life. Just simply be respectful of others around you in all you do. Teaching our children how to act in public is our responsibility as parents. I can’t understand why it is so hard. If you can’t control the child, leave and take your family so everyone else can enjoy. Can’t imagine if I had to live near that family😫. Thanks Tony!
Attending shows is also the highlight of my cruise days and the source of my biggest pet peeves. I could fill a book with "theater attendees behaving badly" stories. At the top of the list is exactly the first thing you said - arriving late (sometimes halfway through the show) AND going straight to the front row with little kids and screaming babies, with those kids having to go to the bathroom every 10 minutes. At the last show I attended I found a perfect seat in the middle on the right in a totally empty row, confident that I'd be able to watch the show in comfort. A woman entered the theater with a newborn in her arms (for a 90 minute show) AND SAT NEXT TO ME. The entire row was empty. All I could do was smh and laugh.
I have neighbours who have a built in pool in their backyard , as do I. One of their visitors I think is a grandchild and he’s there every weekend. I refer to him as “the screamer “. I usually have to leave my pool dry off and head into the house. I can’t take it.
I would have turned around and stared directly at her and said "you have my undivided attention now, I assume by those screams that you are held against your will and need some help. Do we need to get security to free you of your captors?"
