Megnolia Posted July 9, 2009 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2009 If that happened, I would just call your room steward, and I'm sure the appropriate departments would look into it. The water is safe to drink, and I have filled my water bottle in the bathroom sink before - of course I prefer to do it on Lido, but I was assured that it's the same water. Any non-potable water will be labeled as such. Of course I wouldn't drink it if it was running brown... but my home water has run brown before, too. It certainly would be an unpleasant surprise, but nothing that would really upset me too much. If it was like that all week... yeah, I would be a little more upset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocF Posted July 9, 2009 #5 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Do you hear the air in the line? Some work was done on it and it stirred up sediment. My solution is to simply run the water for a while. It will clear up. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will clear up. Doc He is right. It can happen on any cruiseline. I have been on a Royal cruise that it happened. We recieved a letter in our cabin that some work was done on the water lines in our area and the water may run brown for when you first turn it on. The letter said it was perfectly safe to drink and to just let it run for a little bit until it clears up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted July 9, 2009 #7 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I've never had anything like this happen..........I see all kinds of threads about this, but you would think in 16 cruises it would have happened to me at least once............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamt Posted July 9, 2009 #9 Share Posted July 9, 2009 you can tell at the end of the video that it is starting to clear out. no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like someone drank the water in mexico and it drained down from the upstairs cabin into their sink. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted July 9, 2009 #11 Share Posted July 9, 2009 He is right. It can happen on any cruiseline. In any house. My house...your house. - even the hotel across the street! :eek: Geez you guys scare easy, huh? :cool: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueJacketsFan1 Posted July 9, 2009 #12 Share Posted July 9, 2009 We have never had a problem, plus how do you know that that was even of a Carnival ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmdiver Posted July 9, 2009 #13 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Never had that happen on any of my cruises. I heard the air in the line, too. It reminds me of when they changed our water lines here at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack2 Posted July 9, 2009 #14 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I've had that happen to me. It was on the Disney Magic. Most of the time, it would happen when the ship was at port... Although, I don't remember any smell like they describe in the YouTube video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo Eleven Posted July 9, 2009 Author #15 Share Posted July 9, 2009 We have never had a problem, plus how do you know that that was even of a Carnival ship. The author of the video states in the description that it was on the Carnival Legend. Do you think he just made up the cruiseline and picked the Legend out of a hat to fool everyone on youtube? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can download the video and re-upload it to YouTube saying that it was taken on the QE2... or Atlantis Resort and Casino. But like I said previously... I've experienced this on another line many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo Eleven Posted July 9, 2009 Author #18 Share Posted July 9, 2009 It looks like my gut feeling was 100% correct. Is this proof adequate to convince you that the video is authentic? http://www.karcartravel.com/My_Homepage_Files/Page6.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime service is done to water systems....in houses, hotels or ships, there is sediment and air in the system. Simply run the water, in any of the said places, and the line will return with clear, clean water. Jeesh, enough.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The letter said it was perfectly safe to drink and to just let it run for a little bit until it clears up. Take a hint from a plumber , If water runs brown you have a PROBLEM!! I wouldn't be drinking it unless you like the flavor of **** or rust! Bring your own bottled water and buy it on ship and be prepared to get sick, and BTW they will just there you it's the flu virus lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happens in your house you can have it. NO good normal water runs brown color . It is either sewage problems or bad pipes , neither is good for you.
