Rare PTC DAWG Posted January 30, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) I'm sure this goes on more than you know. Can't have anyone trying to take money away from the Cartels. That's the main reason to keep it illegal....keep the profits up. In the US and Mexico. Edited January 30, 2019 by PTC DAWG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We leave on NCL on Friday. There's a chance that we will be wandering the cabin hallways with dogs all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RealNorwegianCruiser Posted January 30, 2019 #7 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Not the first time.. ... nope.. not the first time.. So this is how MSC keeps the prices so low:) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expat Cruise Posted January 31, 2019 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2019 This makes three drug issues on the line in the last several months. Do they even understand the meaning of security on MSC? Crew or Guests if you can get drugs on the ship you can get other things that are not allowed. Not sure if Guests will feel safe on MSC with so many security problems? I think they need to take a very hard look at security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for pointing this out but you can “copy & paste” your statement into any other cruise line forum on CC as well as any other airline forum and you are always right. Unfortunately there is no thing like 100% safety, not on a cruise ship and not on an airplane. I trust MSC , feel very safe on their ships and will keep cruising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well not totally true no other cruise line has had three trafficking cases within the last year. In 2017 5 trafficking cases for all cruise lines now MSC has three major trafficking case in less than a year. Therefore you could not cut and paste to other cruise lines because only MSC has such a poor record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted January 31, 2019 #11 Share Posted January 31, 2019 MSC search their crew going off and on the ship, we have seen them doing it, there is no mention of how long the drugs were onboard and a possible scenario is that it could have been taken on while bunkering.

I can not find any statistic covering international trafficking cases but just read about the 34 people smuggling illegal drugs on Costa cruise ships on TA cruises from Morocco to Brazil and from South America to Europe on 13 cruises in 2012 and 2013. That is 6 cruises per year just on Costa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really maybe they need to look at the overall security and the company who is providing it because the record says they have major security problems. Two trafficking drug busts on the same ship within a few months is not security it is a absolute joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
