MexicoMark Posted February 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Good! Anyone who does this, especially to a Children’s Hospital is a real POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slightlysilly Posted February 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Yup! I was on this cruise which came back to port yesterday. We also picked up 12 migrant workers from Cuba. http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/14/americas/disney-cruise-cuban-migrants/index.html It was quite the eventful cruise!

slightlysilly Posted February 19, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2016 [quote=moki'smommy I wonder why it made national news. That article (actually a few articles) were sent to me from friends and family while I was on the ship and popped up when we came back to Miami. Was it the amount of people on the boat?

I certainly can't say why this particular "rescue" generated news reports. When I did a google search, the first 3 items concerned this event. The next were earlier passenger pick ups by the Magic and Wonder followed by some by Royal ships. These were all within the last 2 years. I was on a cruise that picked up 2 people--it did not appear in my cursory search. Perhaps there is a political tie in to the news reports since Obama is scheduled to visit Cuba.
