by Ready2bmom
Like a previous comment, your review had me on the edge of my seat. Thank goodness you came out of it okay to write this wonderful review. I don't think I could go on another cruise for a long time.

I booked this cruise for January. Let's hope everything does not end up on the kitchen floor this time :).

Just remember the most dangerous part of your trip is travelling to the airport or seaport.

Your review had me on the edge of my seat! First of all, thank goodness, the two of you were safe. Second of all, you have written a thorough and enjoyable review. I wish that I had the Most Helpful button! And finally, I never have desired a cruise, and your honest review, sealed the deal.
My best,
Deborah~

They asked me on the news afterwards if I thought I was going to die - and I said that if the roll had gone one another 5-10 seconds then yes - as we would have tipped over.

and there was apparently a similar, although not so drastic incident on another of their cruise liners earlier this year.

Princess Cruises, which is ownd by Miami-based Carnival, admitted yesterday that the incident of the ship's alarming list was a result of human error.
Having survived a terrifying shipboard fire in 1984 aboard the Scandinavian Sun, I have mixed feelings about going on another cruise. I'd probably go, but only if I had the right person with me as an incentive.

Yikes!! (Reply to this comment)

I am going on a cruise in August and I hope the industry has learned from the incident on your ship. I am glad to hear you weren't injured. I am surprised that you still recommended the cruise line. You are more forgiving that I would have been.

Epinionators do get around (Reply to this comment)
by Howard_Creech
so I am not at all surprised to read a review of the tipped over cruise ship. From what I heard on the news if the roll had been just a few degrees further the ship would have capsized. You're a better man than I - I'd never get on another cruise ship.

Title (Reply to this comment)
by signeann
I loved your catchy title. It certainly makes one want to read your article, out of curiosity, if nothing else. What an experience that must have been, but being the adventurer you seem to be, it probably won't keep you from taking another cruise sometime. I'm glad you're ok to keep writing more reviews.

Great Review! (Reply to this comment)
by jsmorris
So did they ever take a head count? How scary this adventure must have been! And I hope you're writing a review on the car rental company! ;o)

You ROCK! (Reply to this comment)
by chelledun, in Hotels & Travel
Props to you for writing such a balanced review, I can't believe you were on the ship I heard so much about. I know many less experienced reviewers would (and still may) come on here and say "1 star! Boat almost capsized!) I'm so glad you are safe, and that you can keep everything in perspective.
Also, the quote from your waiter cracked me up!
Wonderful review.
