Donh44 Posted January 18, 2015 #26 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Right, I was looking for a video that's current. The video posted here is old... That video is several years old. I had friends who were on the RCCL when it happened. Both ships were damaged but not to the point that they were incapacitated. They went in for repairs after the end of their cruise. I had a first hand account of the accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisexlife Posted January 18, 2015 #27 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Just checked the Port of Miami archives. No damage that I could see anywhere onboard... Edited January 18, 2015 by cruisexlife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemanbobswife Posted January 18, 2015 #28 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I was watching it today and didn't see any damage. Even when they zoomed in after turning. I always like to watch because I'm so anxious to get back on her. Are you sure it wasn't rust or something? What did the "damage" look like?

kelkel2 Posted January 18, 2015 #29 Share Posted January 18, 2015 That video is several years old. I had friends who were on the RCCL when it happened.

Plus if something happened to the Glory and there was visible damage to the ship today you know people from CC who were getting on or off the ship would be all over CC reporting it. No reports makes me think there's nothing there. I was watching as well and I saw nothing. I mean I wasn't paying attention the entire time, but I didn't see anything.

thephillykid Posted January 18, 2015 #30 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Are you sure that some of you guys are not "playing right field with a hockey stick". I can't follow the posts on this thread. Did the Glory get damaged? I'll say it again....Glory, not Legend. ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splintz Posted January 18, 2015 #34 Share Posted January 18, 2015 i don't understand all the confusion in this thread:confused: -someone states that they believe the glory looked damaged in port cam -someone states it must not be damage on the glory because if it was damaged it would not sail -someone states that the legend previously struck an RCI ship in cozumel and both had extreme damage and both sailed after incident -someone states they saw pictures of that incident on cruise critic previously but can't find them now. also say the damage was not extreme -someone states that there is you tube video and if you had to pay for the damages you might think it was extreme -couple people talk about the video of the legend hitting the RCI ship -someone asked what words you used to find the video because they couldn't find it -someone replies google is your friend type in CARNIVAL LEGEND crashes into ship in cozumel(so it is obvious everyone is still talking about the previous crash on the LEGEND and how it still sailed even after damage) -same person who stated there was video of the LEGEND post the actual video's so people on the thread could watch it without looking for it. especially since someone asked how to find the video. -people complain that the video is 5 yrs old and not current. but it is the video about the legend and same damage that people were talking about. -same person who asked how to find the video of the legend and RCI crash that people were talking about then complains about the video being old and having nothing to do with the Glory. even though the thread talked about possible damage to the glory and if there was damage it would not sail. people stating that the legend sailed with damage after hitting the RCI boat. and that is how the conversation started talking about the legend.

hartsnvt Posted January 18, 2015 #35 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I understood the posts perfectly. I think people need to slow down and read carefully. I certainly would not have liked to be that port pilot on the Legend he must have been canned, what an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callolin Posted January 18, 2015 #36 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I was watching the web cam yesterday because I am going on the carnival Glory on October 24. I didn't see any damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottohiocpa Posted January 18, 2015 #37 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have a good friend who was on the January 10th sailing. She just got off on Saturday, so she hasn't returned to Ohio to give me more details. What I do know is that she has been on 7 cruises, 4 with Carnival, and she wrote me and said she would never go on Carnival again. She also posted that they didn't arrive in San Juan until later in the day, and skipped Grand Turk entirely. We were on the Glory on June and had a good time, although it was unusual that we never saw our room steward the entire trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misguidedangel Posted January 18, 2015 #39 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Back in 2010 the Liberty had a notable dent in the starboard bow. It was not an issue for the ship and was fixed when it went into dry dock for FUnship 2.0..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seashinesunshine Posted January 18, 2015 #40 Share Posted January 18, 2015 im looking at the port of Miami webcam and I swear I see damage at the front of the ship starboard I tried to follow this, but got lost. If this helps, we just got off the Glory yesterday Jan 17th, 2014 and there were no incidents that would cause damage, we didn't collide with anyone, and the 2 weeks we were on her were really fun. They were doing some work to the floor however, it seemed like they were redoing some of the floor tiles, not sure what that is all about. :D Right after we docked in Miami about 715 am or so, there was a code bright star, I believe at the aft, when we went up to the lido to eat, the aft was closed off and there were Miami Dade Police on board. Not sure what that was about but Code Bright Star is a death or medical emergency, so I pray everyone is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZ4 Posted January 18, 2015 #41 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Grandeur of the Seas sailed for at least six months with a HUGE dent in the side. Actually, it was a gash big enough to be able to see into the ship. They covered the gash with duct tape, painted it white and sailed until they were able to make repairs during a dry dock. They would lower a lifeboat at each port to cover the dent from view. True story. Except the part about the duct tape.

seashinesunshine Posted January 18, 2015 #43 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Was there a reason why the ship was late into San Juan and missed Grand Turk? Oops, I mean itinerary We were not late to San Juan and didn't miss Grand Turk. But I heard people talking about the Sunshine missing a port, maybe that was them? On our first sea day back we diverted again to San Juan to drop off someone with a medical emergency, I heard it was a 2 year old with a broken arm, it didn't affect us in anyway. A coast guard cutter came out to meet the ship to make the transfer. Our first week starting the 3rd, we had to divert for about an hour in the middle of the night for a search a rescue after some flares were spotted. The said the coast guard released us from the search after 45 minutes. We were late getting to Grand Cayman that day, but we stayed in port an extra hour to make up for it.

Scottohiocpa Posted January 18, 2015 #44 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks for the update. I thought my friend was on the Glory, but maybe it was the sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCruisinCardsCouple Posted January 19, 2015 #45 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks for the update. I thought my friend was on the Glory, but maybe it was the sunshine. Just off Glory yesterday, no damage that we could tell or at least heard about. We did not miss a port on Glory but we did meet a couple in Puerto Rico who were on Carnival Sunshine and said they missed Grand Turk because of a medical emergency on ship and the ship having to turn around. I would be disappointed about missing an island but I wouldn't let it ruin my trip or never sail with Carnival again because of it. There's no control over something such as the medical emergency, have to have some understanding or compassion in a situation like that. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCFTJCH2V Posted January 19, 2015 #48 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Pretty funny thread. But I remember the Victory hitting the pier and having a large dent in her bow, and she sailed for weeks afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
