As far as the RC cruisers in contrast to passengers on "the other cruise line," keep in mind two things: (1) the fire on the RC ship did NOT knock out the ship's power, and (2) when it happened it was much closer to port than the ship on "the other cruise line." Major differences....
But, Royal Caribbean was way more generous to the passengers than the other cruise line !!!
