YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

P&O Cruises has reversed course after guest backlash, now offering a 25% Future Cruise Credit to Britannia passengers whose December 26th sailing was disrupted by skipped ports and weather issues. Disney Cruise Line quietly raised onboard internet prices, with daily Wiโ€‘Fi now costing up to $49 per deviceโ€”sparking debate among loyal fans. And in Papua New Guinea, Holland Americaโ€™s Noordam faced a sudden squall at Kiriwina Island, leaving around 700 guests temporarily stranded during tender operations, though all passengers returned safely once conditions improved.
