Sick Cruisers Delay Cruise, Carnival Increases Water Prices Again, Fishermen Saved By Cruise Ship

Editorial Summary

The creator provides several updates regarding the cruise industry, beginning with a milestone for Royal Caribbean as the Star of the Seas has officially laid its keel. This vessel is part of the Icon class and is expected to become the world's largest cruise ship. In a positive report, the Costa Serena diverted its route in the Arabian Sea to rescue five stranded fishermen after passengers spotted life jackets in the water. Conversely, the creator highlights a difficult situation for a couple in Turkey who are awaiting refunds for a cancelled three year Life at Sea cruise after selling their possessions to join the journey. Regarding pricing, Carnival Cruise Line has implemented a second increase in bottled water prices within twelve months, with the creator noting that the cost of a twelve pack has risen significantly compared to the previous year. Finally, the P Ventura sailing out of Southampton is facing embarkation delays. The delay is intended to allow for extra cleaning following reports of gastrointestinal illness among passengers on the previous sailing.
