What they say about transatlantics is TRUE

Oh Alphas are not restricted to TAs, we had 2 on a recent 4 night cruise. It happens on a ship in exactly the same way it happens on land, in fact you get faster medical attention on a ship :D

I did a world cruise last year (including a TA and a TP), and obviously on a cruise of around 4 months the age demographic is quite high. We had some Alpha Alpha Alpha's but very few deaths. The first one was a corpulent guy who was on a snorkelling expedition and died as soon as he got out of the water. Most people seemed fit and able and there was a guy in his late 80's who complained that one night there wasn't any dancing! I think it's just unfortunate that there've been two so far on this cruise.

Are there morgues on the ships?

Yes, and a jail, too.

Sounds like my HAL cruise. There was an ambulance waiting at every port.

According to "Devils on the Deep Blue Sea", HAL ships have larger capacity morgues than the other cruise lines. :)

In my limited cruising experience I've had two returns to port; neither were a TA. Allure Western and Oasis Eastern. I figure it is a side effect of the increased passenger capacity on those ships. There's bound to be a higher chance of a medical emergency, regardless of the age demographic.

Joff Eaton was asked about fridges in which they keep the bodies he told us on the Indie there are 2 but if you are asked to eat lots of icecream then they might just need another one :D
