I suppose they could try. But my guess is the Attorney General, or any lawyer, would take one look at the cruise contract and say, "not gonna happen".

NCL is a foreign corporation operating foreign-flagged vessels. It’s difficult to sue them in the US as they full well meant it to be when they set up it up.

Its corporate headquarters is located in Miami. It owns ships which are registered in a country other than the USA. It also is the only major cruise line which owns and operates a ship which is US flagged and registered. I'm not an attorney, nor do I play one on TV, but I imagine a clever enough lawyer could find a way to bring NCL to court in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The place of NCLH's incorporation is Bermuda, but it's shares are listed on the NYSE. That brings about a level of oversight and places the company under a measure of being subject to many US laws. I'll leave it to the lawyers on this forum to discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
