Carnival Cruise Lines has another crisis! The year started with the sinking of the Costa Concordia and was followed by her sister ship having an engine fire which stranded thousands of passengers and crew for days without power, air conditioning, working kitchens etc.
Now it is revealed that another Carnival cruise ship sailed pass a stranded fishing boat with 3 fishermen, without offering aid or calling for assistance. Days later the fishing ship was found with two dead and a struggling third fisherman.
Maritime law, in addition to the moral responsibility, requires ships to offer assistance to others in distress.
More lives affected by the decisions of the Carnival Cruise Line.
