aggieastrosfan Posted February 15, 2013 #5402 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I wanted to comment on that! Something tells me that Carnival will not be seeking monetary reimbursements for those who are leaving with the robes! Free souvenir.:rolleyes: They would've had to trash them anyway. I may have worn it off, but I would never hang on to it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwjoe Posted February 15, 2013 #5403 Share Posted February 15, 2013 CNN had the interview with the ex Carnival employee. He said the crew makes about 17cents and hour and all there money comes from tips from the pax. Since Carnival picked up everyone's SS card....I hope the crew doesn't get hosed. That would be the real story the media needs to chase.If that actually happens, I will be totally pissed. Agreed. All the pax accounts I've heard praise the crew. They are heroes, and I hope CCL takes care of them very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasvar Posted February 15, 2013 #5404 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I figure the people who really want to vent will stop and talk to the press. A lot of folks will just want to get the heck out of there. They will probably get some good soundbites tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted February 15, 2013 #5405 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Neither USCG nor NTSB have jurisdiction. Wrong. USCG has full jurisdiction and is leading the investigation. As I stated, it is already underway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuddrules Posted February 15, 2013 #5406 Share Posted February 15, 2013 according to cnn, carnival has asked people not to talk to press as they are leaving the ship and that a wavier is required for the buses I know you're just stating what was said, but I don't believe it. Heck, people on the ship have been talking with the media for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted February 15, 2013 #5407 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I don't think there is really provision at the piers to hook up power. It would have to be a very significant power hookup so they usually just depend on the keeping the generators on the ship running. Cruise ships don't have the provision, either. They would have to get some big honking jumper cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsmeeker Posted February 15, 2013 #5408 Share Posted February 15, 2013 CNN found some good ones hopefully they get more. Not everyone is getting on a bus to go to New Orleans or Houston. Some people have arranged their own transportation from Mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzin-K Posted February 15, 2013 #5409 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Fox News just said that it takes 2.5 hours to drive from Houston to Galveston :rolleyes: Earlier they said the cruise just left Galveston on Sunday :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHCruiser Posted February 15, 2013 #5410 Share Posted February 15, 2013 CNN found some good ones Yeh, the 2 whiny women who didn't think anyone knew where they were or what was going on???????? Real winners. What rock did they crawl out from under? They never heard of GPS, satellite telephones,....? I like the fella who's talking now--Rob Kenny--has a head on his shoulders and isn't biting at the interviewers trying to get him to whine.

Blurgh Posted February 15, 2013 #5412 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I know you're just stating what was said, but I don't believe it.

BeagleOne Posted February 15, 2013 #5413 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Y I like the fella who's talking now--Rob Kenny--has a head on his shoulders and isn't biting at the interviewers trying to get him to whine.

sweetcurves Posted February 15, 2013 #5415 Share Posted February 15, 2013 This passenger on CNN, Rob Kenny, is great. I love that he basically told Martin Savidge to get some perspective. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DISNEY1975 Posted February 15, 2013 #5416 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Weeks? Surely this is a typo. The ship was due in Galveston on Monday. No, it was due Sunday (or Saturday even, but Im thinking Sunday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted February 15, 2013 #5417 Share Posted February 15, 2013 No, it was due Sunday (or Saturday even, but Im thinking Sunday) No it was due in Monday. The fire happened Sunday on the way back to Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieastrosfan Posted February 15, 2013 #5418 Share Posted February 15, 2013 No, it was due Sunday (or Saturday even, but Im thinking Sunday) They were supposed to be back in Galveston on the 11th, Monday. The Magic is in port on Sundays. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcca2 Posted February 15, 2013 #5420 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I have to say that the two ladies CNN just interviewed who were complaining about everything.................looked pretty good to me for people who had just come off a situation like that........... I have gotten off many International flights looking worse than them. :rolleyes: My friend Nancy who is still onboard is still claiming she was told by crew of a death in the engine room fire..........I guess we will find out. I have no other info.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMM34667 Posted February 15, 2013 #5421 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Way to go to passenger Rob Kenny who told the CNN reporters to put things in perspective when they attempted to compare this to Hurricane Katrina... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzin-K Posted February 15, 2013 #5423 Share Posted February 15, 2013 People seem to be getting off the ship pretty quickly, yet the news still says it will take up to 5 hours :confused: Somehow I doubt that but I guess we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
