My husband and I cruise at least 3 x a year --- for the last three years--we have only cruised Carnival and go out of Canaveral because of the closeness to The Villages. I can't imagine what the passengers went through but it was an accident and under the circumstances they handled it as best they could. I know the passengers will be compensated with full refund, another cruise for free and 500.00 but I would like to hear that Carnival is doing something for the crew as well. Can you imagine what they went through?---they already work from early morning to late at night when the cruise is going smoothly. Their cabins are either deck 0 or 1---I am sure they did not have the option to sleep on the deck--which I am sure wasn't very comfortable. I know the passengers had a horrible experience but for some reason, I think of the crew. We have thoroughly enjoyed each and every cruise --just got off the Carnival Dream 2/9---our 12th with Carnival and a good part of our enjoyment is the friendliness and service we receive from the crew.
