Those Slippery Floors

[jules815]

Do you think MSC ever regrets having all of those shiny tile floors in most of the common areas of their ships, particularly near the elevators? On Seascape you couldn't help but notice the many "caution, wet floor" signs there were, in addition to dryers going 24/7. It's really bad around the forward elevators nearest the YC entrance, definitely due to the Jungle Pool being there. Made us wonder how many times people have fallen. There's no way people aren't falling sometimes.

When we were on Meraviglia in 2019, a passenger had a bad fall and broke her wrist at one of the elevators due to floor being wet. She had to go to a hospital on one of the islands to have it set.  It was heartbreaking to see how much pain she was in and how much it handicapped her for the rest of the cruise.  Despite this, the floor continued to get wet and nothing seemed to be done about it.
