J18ktleo Posted December 20, 2017 #201 Share Posted December 20, 2017 SamFritz, My heart goes out to you and your family...words cannot express our sorrow in your loss and the other families affected by this tragedy. Having done both private and ship sponsored tours we rarely consider the possibilities and this is the worst case imaginable. I was reading an article on one of the news sites and the way it was written insinuated that this was NOT a ship sponsored tour but knowing it was and that private tours, especially in that region, are rarely in the big buses. Sounds like there were quite a few buses doing this tour reading the comments by those who were driving by on the way to/from the ruins. Mind numbingly sad....

grapau27 Posted December 20, 2017 #202 Share Posted December 20, 2017 When I first heard about this, I thought there must've been a huge cliff that the bus went down for so many people to die at once. Turns out the terrain was nice and flat with vegetation on both sides. I cannot even imagine how hard the bus would've had to hit on it's side for people to die like that. It's just crazy! I feel so badly for those that have survived because this is one memory that will be very, very hard to get out of their minds for a very long time. Just imagine being on a tour like this with your loved one and having them die in front of you. Poor people! <|3 Just found out 5 minutes ago by reading this post. This is heartbreaking news and our sincerest condolences go to the families of the people who have died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrill Posted December 20, 2017 #211 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Obviously not the case. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Celebrity handled their passengers' contacts, and Royal Carib handled theirs. A Royal Carib ship would not have access to Celebrity passengers' info. When someone posted that all Royal Carib people had been contacted, it was probably true. SamFritz' brother and wife were on Celebrity. As he said, Celebrity gave him the sad news.

Rare island lady Posted December 20, 2017 #218 Share Posted December 20, 2017 So very sad for Sam and his family..and the others that were lost or injured. So very heart wrenching indeed. We were just at Costa Maya a few days ago. It is such a tiny place, and very unusual to have something like this happen....but can happen anywhere. Just such a shame when it does, and brings tears to my eyes. Heart goes out to them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamFritz Posted December 20, 2017 #219 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Royal is working diligently to arrange for my wife and I to bring my brother and his wife’s remains home. They have been very sympathetic and accessible. Thank you all for your kind words of comfort and prayers of support.
