Cruising

[Tashyboy]

I see it has kicked off on the Brittania cruise ship. Been on a couple of cruises and enjoyed them both. Not to sure i would like hen or stag does on one though. Or am i, others and cruise companys being snobs by not allowing said party's and fancy dress on these cruises.

Thought this was about i different type of cruising. Sorry nothing to add.

I’d say live and let live, but if the behaviour of a party starts interfering with the enjoyment of other passengers, then it’s time to stop.

Chuck em in a lifeboat and tow them a couple of hundred yards behind the ship,

Sorted👍

Saw that in the news as well Tashy. Can't say as I'd fancy seeing a stag do on a cruise ship knowing how rowdy they can get especially if I'm there trying to relax in my best smoking jacket, with my pipe and gin on the go 😂

Really though just comes down to people knowing how to behave themselves and in these instances eject them and their bags at the next port and let them make their own way home.

As long as no one is wearing black socks I suppose anything goes.

Used to 'do' cruising but about 10 years the accountants took over and the food seemed to go downhill and its a bit like a packed,small holiday resort with the 'entertainment' team trying to wind people up with games that usually involve drinking etc

These big ships walk a fine line; there are IMO too many people in a confined space so if anything kicks-off there are pretty limited options and staff numbers for controlling and confining.

Add to the increasing sense of entitlement it seems very few care how their behaviour impact others as long as they're doing what they like - my opinion

Floating blocks of flats.

The nice couple on table 648 were friendly.

Passengers sign up for an all inclusive drinks cruise package and then bitterly complain when other passengers get drunk, violent and abusive.
What did they expect.

I was thinking Tashy was asking about the 80's film with Al Pacino..... the Mustache always make me suspicious

I'm going on the same ship in 2 weeks time, should I take a baseball bat just to be on the safe side?

all inclusive drinks packages are often sold in the original price of the cruise, it still doesn't excuse fighting on board, something ive never see on about a dozen cruises

Decent behaviour perhaps.🙄

Ask them for your money back.

If they are not worldly wise perhaps.
Me, I seriously avoid anything that is 'drinks inclusive' as I know what I would expect.
