Poor charter behavior on Vision

How much additional revenue can this be worth? I think the Organizers of these events must be held to stricter standards of providing security, medical, etc.

Ladies and gentlemen........... your leaders of tomorrow............

Guests were making out in public? And smoking weed openly? the horror!

Oh wait I live in Colorado, we make out in public and smoke weed openly all the time. Or I should say, I see it happen all the time.

But in sensible fleece instead of ostentatious glitter

Maybe Royal offered a Drug package that's like Alcohol package. A Pot package, "Coke package'... But nice, have a 3 week TA on Vision coming up, now I'll have these images in my head when I board...

It's a "reality" show. The drugs were probably supplied by the producers. Probably not your typical charter.

I could see if this was a half chartered boat and “regular” guests were cruising not knowing what was to come. But didn’t the passengers know what they were getting themselves into when booking a room for this charter? Granted no drugs tolerance but a party cruise is a party cruise and things like this are kind of expected.

You should see the behavior on the chartered swingers cruises.

LOL - This was a PRIVATE charter booked for the SOLE purpose of partying so why would there be any surprise that was what was occurring? There was no "orgy" going on in public. Rather, ONE cruiser DESCRIBED it as IF that was the case. Basically, it was their way of saying that they felt it was a bit wilder than they expected. Nothing but hyperbole. I don't know for certain but I would expect that the rules on drugs are significantly different for ships in international waters so... perhaps the drugs are actually not regulated so... just another nothing-burger.

It's a nothing burger because you don't know if you are wrong or not? :confused: (Which you are)

The article clearly says Royal has a zero tolerance policy on drugs though and its very true. They likely kick people off their ships every week for it. Several years ago, we all got to read about a guy that got kicked off Freedom the same day he boarded for what was supposedly "hookah tobacco" because he tried to hide it in a secret compartment of a hair spray can or something similar. I was on that cruise. Our whole roll call wondered what happened to this couple. We didnt know until the cruise was over and the lady guest came here to complain about it lol. She didnt get much sympathy.

Good publicity for the reality show!

Probably only 5 % of the people going to the extreme.....the rest just having a good time.

Honestly? I have seen much worse at the Vegas pool parties

I don't see anything wrong with that charter at all. The only thing I see wrong is the article referring to the cruise ship as a boat.

;p

I somehow came across the fact that our next family cruise "follows" a swingers chartered cruise this November on the Indy:eek:

Does everyone in the same cabin have to buy the drug package [emoji41]. Or can one buy the alcohol package instead?

I believe if you call, you can get one drug package and one alcohol package.

Oh, wait! I was in college in the late 60's/early 70's. Nothing new to see here. :cool:

The S*n is an absolutely disgraceful newspaper anyway and I really wouldn't give it a click of your time!

I would actually like to hear from real passengers on this voyage. Was it media hype or not.

If it was a charter there wouldn’t be any real passengers, would there??

Someone here coined it Tobaccogate I think. LOL That was one of the most entertaining threads Ive ever seen on here :D while it lasted!

I assume that they won't be providing a straw with a bag of coke since they stopped offering them with a can of coke.
