YouTube Video Description

Today's cruise news: P&O Cruises tightens its alcohol policy, allowing adults to bring one litre of wine or Champagne onboard but confiscating anything over the limit without compensation, while expanding conduct rules around intoxication, harassment, and aggressive behaviour. Royal Caribbean's Ovation of the Seas arrives in Seward, Alaska on June 19th with a 61-foot fin whale draped across its bow, with investigators from the Alaska SeaLife Centre and NOAA now examining whether the whale was struck by the ship or already dead. And a federal court in Alaska sentences 38-year-old Enrico Ronquillo to over four years in prison after boarding a cruise ship in Seattle using a stolen identity, with Customs officers finding a fake California driver's license, counterfeit birth certificate, and fraudulent tax documents in Juneau.
