Cruise News: Woman FALLS Off Cruise Ship Taking SELFIE, Cruise Port Mad at Ship | CruiseRadio.net

Editorial Summary

Doug Parker reports on several developments within the cruise industry for late June. The first report details an incident involving a passenger on Royal Caribbean's Mariner of the Seas who fell overboard while attempting to take a selfie. Crew members successfully deployed a survival craft and located the woman, who is reported to be in good condition. The report also covers a dispute between American Cruise Lines and Bar Harbor port officials. Following an unauthorized visit by the ship Constitution, local residents expressed significant opposition to cruise visits, citing concerns over their quality of life. This tension led to a successful initiative to limit cruise passengers to one thousand per day, a move that has sparked debate regarding tourism limits. Additionally, Carnival has relaunched its Internship at Sea program. The program currently hosts twenty-four students from various universities, offering roles such as youth staff and sports staff. Finally, the report notes a decline in cruise line stocks on Monday, with Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian all seeing percentage decreases in their market value.
