C'Mon Let's Cruise!



Have you ever been on a cruise? After seeing this, does a cruise vacation still sound good? Do you think the efforts the crew members made for the vacationers was sufficient?

I have not been on a cruise. After seeing this,I think I will still go on a cruise vacation. I think this was just once in a life time thing and I do not think it will happen again. I think the effort the crew members made was sufficient. They did everything they could and I think it was suffcient.

I’ve never been on a cruise myself. However, I think that the crew and the owners of the ship did a decent job in helping the passengers. They also gave the passengers plenty in compensation. The free alcohol and free cruise is reasonable to make up for the mishap on this cruise. I just think that if someone doesn’t want to go on another cruise they should compensate by letting them have the money instead of the free cruise ticket.

Unfortunately I have never had the pleasure of being on a cruise. I would love to go despite what happened. As the math teacher said “what are the chances of this happening again?” There really wasn’t anything the crew could do but try to keep them as comfortable as possible.

No, but I would like to be on a cruise. Of course it still sounds good. Yes, I think that the crew tried to do their best to help the passengers on the ship have a good time, and it was all they could do.

I have never been on a cruise. This is the first I have ever heard of something like this happening on a cruise ship, and the odds of it happening again are kind of slim so a cruise vacation still sounds good. I do think the efforts the crew members made for the vacationers were sufficient. The crew members did everything they could.

I have been on a cruise and it was a blast! So much fun and the food was amazing. I would definitely go on another cruise regardless on the outcome of this cruise. It is great that the crew members put in the effort to make the cruise as much as it was worth under the circumstances. I do believe they did a great job in handling the situation.

No, I have never been on a cruise ship or a cruise. Yes, I would still go on a cruise. I don’t believe that this could happen twice to the same people so it would be worth it to take another cruise. I do believe that the cruise line workers and the U.S. Navy’s effort to make the people comfortable were sufficient.

I have never ever been on a cruise before. After seeing this, I still would go on a cruise vacation. This is because anything can happen even if its getting in a car or an airplane. I think that the crew members made great efforts to make the vacationers more at ease. If I was on the boat at the time it was on fire I would do whatever I could to make myself more at ease like most of the people on board.

I have never been on a cruise before but, I would still like to go on one. Even though this unplanned mishap ruined people’s vacation, people still want to go on another one. I’m with the math teacher, what are the odds it could happen again. There’s always a possibility something bad could go wrong with every thing in life, but you can’t let that slow you down.

No i have ever been on a cruise. After seeing this vidoe a cruise does still sound good just because one cruise had a problem doesn't mean im not going to go on a cruise. No I don not think the efforts the crew members made for the vacationers was sufficient.

I've been on a cruise. No! A vacation that puts my life in danger never sounds good. I think the crew members made efforts were sufficient. It sounds like the crew did put for an effort to make the situation better. And the fact that they get another cruise for free just makes the situation so much better.

I have never been on a cruise but I would really like to go. A cruise still does sound really fun. This incident was an isolated event. It is not going to happen every time you go on a cruise. They made really good efforts to make everyone happy and at least have food.

I’ve been on a cruise not a normal cruise, a tiger cruise. That is a cruise for military family members, no spouses are allowed, to spend time on the ship with the crew after a deployment. I’ve been on two of those they are okay, but I would love to go on a traditional cruise. Even after the incident with this cruise ship I still want to go one. I think it would be fun and what happens with one cruise ship will not happen to another.

I have been on a cruise, its was 2 Christmas's ago. Even after seeing this a cruise, it doesn't make me not want to go on a cruise. But I know I won't ever cruise with that particular line. I don't know how the crew handled it.

zac said...

No I have not been on a cruise. Yes it does. I've wanted to go on a cruise for a long time. Yes becuase they could have died. I think it was nice they gave out free beer.

I have never been on a cruise before. I think I would still go on a cruise. I think that the crew did all they could to make everyone calm. I think that I would of gotten really sick though because I get sea sick really badly.

I have never been on a cruise and at this rate, I have no desire to go on one. I have seen too many videos of things going wrong. I think the efforts that the crew members made were sufficient enough to keep them alive. I'm glad I haven't been somewhere were I can't get food. This is just another video clip that makes me never want to go on a cruise ship in the middle of the ocean with no food.

Unknown said...

I think the best idea they had was giving away alcohol. The people probably would have been a lot more stressed out if they didn’t get free beer. I want to go on a cruse. I think the fact that the people got spam was funny. I just wonder where the people pooped at.

I've never been on a cruise but I've always wanted to. I kind of knew that Carnival wouldn't be that great. A lot of people have told me that it's not worth going on it. I still would like to go on a cruise but not on Carnival. The crew members I thought did an alright job. I don't know about the people on the ship, but I would be ready to get off that ship.

I have never been on a cruise.Yes it does still sound good.Because I know no matter what not just our navy but other countries would dispatch a ship to recuse me.I do think the crew member tried their best.

I went on a cruise last summer, and it definitely wasn’t like this. What are the chances of something like this happening again? I do not believe someone should base their vacation off something like this. Yes, you are taking a risk when going on a cruise, but you take a risk on everything else you do. I think the crew members definitely stepped up and made the time on the ship as best as they could.

Unknown said...

I haven't ever been on a cruise. I still want to go on one. I have the same fear of cruises as I do flights; there is always a possibility that something like this can go wrong. They made a good effort in trying to keep the people happy.

I have never been on a cruise before. This video definitely changes my idea of a fun cruise vacation. The crew did everything they could to help the passengers. The chef's made due with what they had, creating dishes like salad hot-dog buns. I might still go on a cruise, but I will make the decision very carefully.

I haven't been on a cruise before. And after seeing this video a cruise vacation still sounds good. Nothing absolutely went terribly wrong with the ship in the water, but they were still stranded. But I still think the efforts the crew members made for the vacationers wasn't sufficient. From seeing the video the food did look nasty and not efficient enough for the passengers. I definitely think that they should get refunds from all of this.

Unknown said...

No I haven't been on a cruise. Yes I would still like to be on a cruise even after this. I thought it was crazy the way the fire started and then the food was spoiled after a little while. I really don't see how giving beer helps. Other than that I will be happy to be on a cruise any day.

No I have never been on a cruise. Yes a cruise still sounds like fun. Yes the crew did what they could. However I would never want to have eat spam. This is just a bad freak accident.

No I have never been on a cruise. After what I saw about this cruise ship I d not think I ever will either. No after seeing what happened to all those passengers a cruise does not sound all that great. No a cruise does not sound too good after what happened to all those passengers but seeing a guy in uniform does. Just kidding ,though a guy in uniform is quit attractive. Yes I find that the efforts were sufficient. Though it would have been made better if the beer the guy had at his birthday gathering was on ice rather than hot. Not that beer is good anyway.

I have never been on a cruise but dad has always mentioned it. I think a cruise vacation still sounds great! I think the crew made the best efforts they could because they were suffering themselves. I don't think I could eat spam as my main food, but I guess if worse comes to worse you got to do what you can. Plus they are offering to pay for their next trip which is really nice of them. The odds of that happening ever again are very rare.

I have never been on a cruise. A cruise still sounds better than being in Mrs. Bryant's class. I don't think if I got stranded at sea anyone could make it better or if anyone would even try.
