Cruise Ship Sauna Incident Leads to TWO Arrests in Miami
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
Doug Parker reports on several developments within the cruise industry for March 26. The report begins with the arrest of two men, Jose Diaz and Ricardo Leal, following an alleged assault on a minor in the sauna of a Royal Caribbean ship. Both suspects were denied bond and remain in custody due to immigration holds. The news also covers a weather-related disruption for Holland America Line. The ship Rotterdam was forced to skip a scheduled stop in Port Limon, Costa Rica, because strong winds and swells snapped mooring lines. While no injuries were reported, the port visit was canceled and shore excursions were refunded. Additionally, the report addresses changes to Royal Caribbean's The Key Perks package. The cruise line has replaced private FlowRider surf time with a discount on select sports activities, a move that some passengers have criticized as a downgrade. Finally, the segment notes a decline in cruise stocks, with Carnival Corporation and Norwegian seeing decreases while Royal Caribbean and Viking remained flat.
