So my wife is stuck at sea

That sucks I'm going on a cruse for the first time in October. Carnival Magic

Carnival is the Yugo of cruise lines. Stick with Princess or Holland America.

WOW, what a story to be able to tell the grandkids!! I texted GC when I saw that story last night and said "We are NEVER taking a cruise!" to which he replied back "NO ****" LOL

I'm not thinking I'd care too much for onion sammiches ...

We took our daughter and two of her friends on that same ship last October. It was the oldest most worn down ship we've ever been on. This isn't shocking

I'm very sorry that your wife is going through this!

We did the celebrity infinity last summer to Alaska. It was a very nice ship.

My wife asks me nearly annually to take a cruise. No thanks.

I have a friend who was married on Saturday, and they were supposed to leave for a cruise on that ship this week for their honeymoon. Needless to say, their cruise was canceled by Carnival. So they aren’t really sure what to do.

I hope your wife gets home soon!

Passengers describe 'sewage running down the walls' and people acting like 'savages'

One of the few true pleasures of life.

I have friend on that ship! I can't wait till she returns and I can hear the details first hand.

I went on a Carnival Cruise in Sept on the Magic. It was pretty awesome! I'd hate to be stuck on one when something like this happens though.

We had a "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity to take a cruise and land tour in 2005 to Alaska. We were on Royal Caribbean's "Vision of the Seas." While I am not a real fan of cruises where one is out on the open ocean with little to photograph, the Inside Passage from Vancouver to Seward was a beautiful trip. Royal Caribbean was an awesome company where they went out of their way to please the customer.

I would say that I would do it again, but I would rather fly to Alaska and then rent an RV to travel the state.

While I might do a Caribbean cruise someday, it will have to be Royal Caribbean.
