Where does Princess put the dead people?

[quote name='bostonlass']I was talking with DF about cruising in general. The last cruise he was on was on Carnival and during the cruise, a man had a heart attack in the dining room and died. Apparently they stored the body in one of the fridges on board.:(

I guess I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a "special" fridge for just this purpose or if most cruise lines just use the one in the gally?:eek:[/QUOTE]


Don't worry .. all modern cruise vessels have a mortuary fridge onboard

I read this on another thread

The ship did not have a mortuary fridge aboard so they emptied the Ice Cream locker and used that. Free ice cream for the rest of the cruise.

Actually I find that story fishy at best. There would be some health regulations preventing that I suspect.

This post deserved to be brought back to life! It's so funny, I was shaking my head while I was reading it. You guys are nuts, and I thank you for that!

Observation: those refrigerators haven't had to be used for a while, it seems everyone is just slipping overboard on their own!

In the hope of laying this thread to rest.

I was told that there are two berths in the morgue of the Island/Coral Princess which get filled up pretty regularly. The 'guests' normally stay there until return to the home port.

[quote name='tom-n-jules']Do days spent in the mogue until disembarking (talk about "final disembarkation") count toward your Captain's Circle points? :confused:[/quote]

And, do they discontinue the automatic tipping when you die, or when your body leaves the ship?? ;)

That one.....it seems the emplyees get short changed on that one on extra tips......Guess that why some give a tip to their room steward on the first nite of cruise....very considerate of them:D

[derf5585]

If someone dies on a cruise do the rest of the passengers get extra rations?

[Chat Noir]

Wow... this thread is like a car wreck. Don't really want to look, don't really want to know... but a morbid facination compels viewing.:eek:


Death happens... I prefer not to dwell on it while cruising! No morgue tours for me.:rolleyes: I've worked plenty of 'codes' in my job... I go on vactation to get [I]away[/I] from thoughts of the injured, sick, and dying.

I missed this thread first go-round and certainly wish I'd've missed it upon it's resurrection.:)
