Default All cruise ships are a disaster waiting to happen

Things I've seen on cruise ships:

Broken clothes washers- overflowing on laundry floor. NO WATER DRAINS
in floor-resulting in 5" of water on the floor.

NO MAINTAINANCE !

Lint, paper and other combustables piling up behind clothes dryers.

NO MAINTAINANCE AND CLEANING.

Lint filters in clothers dryers- screens are broken or non-existant.
Dryer vents BLOCKED with lint !

Shower drains filled with grease, hair etc.- resuting in water overflow
in cabins.

Smell of SEWER GAS everywhere on the ship-every so often (sometimes
daily) due to water drains not cleaned.

This is just the beginning. It's just what happens when reponsible
government fails to take control of safety on board of cruise ships!

Heavens... THAT bad? Well, by all means, Y O U should certainly NEVER
cruise again.

Maybe he wants us to all stop cruising so the prices will drop!

So, you've been on more than one ship? I guess those maintenance and
safety violations you 've spotted haven't had too much of an impact on
your decision whether or not to cruise? Curious.


Must have been on the Woolwich Ferry, both of them

I have noticed that maintenance varies by line and ship within line. What
ship(s) are you describing?

That does it! I'm cancelling my cruise.

I'm refuse to tolerate lint behind the dryer!
