Only weeks after that terrible disaster with the sunken cruise liner the Costa Concordia, this week another ship in that fleet of Costa cruises caught fire and was stuck in the middle of the Indian Ocean. There were over 600 passengers on board the Costa Allegra who had to cope with no lights, air conditioning and only basic provisions to eat.
Who would now seriously want to take a cruise with this company? I dare say that these two incidents will have a knock on effect on the cruise industry as a whole, as many people will think twice before booking a cruise.
I never really liked the idea of a cruise, never appealed to me being restricted to a ship for hours on end. That idea would be even worse if I was stuck on the ship because there had been a fire on board.
nice
