Island Dog Posted November 10, 2022 #101 Share Posted November 10, 2022 (edited) One thing I've noticed when watching these "Brawl Videos" is how woefully unprepared security seems to be when dealing with this. (I'm not picking on Carnival here, all lines have brawls to some degree and the security response is similar). There needs to be "Zero Tolerance" with this. Nobody has the right to put their hands on anybody else. Put them off at the next port. Edited November 10, 2022 by Island Dog 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a safety issue for everyone around them and the crew trying to separate the fight as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that- and wonder if it's because security isn't empowered to actually touch passengers or something? Or if they're directed to try to de-escalate in other ways before engaging? With everyone recording these days, the actions of the crew could get the cruise line in deeper water than the fight itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF that's true then our cruise contracted needs to be tweaked to provide Security with proper police authority onboard. Reasonable physical force and shipboard arrest power, as necessary.

Rare Cruise till you drop Posted November 11, 2022 Author #106 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, Djptcp said: Passengers who exhibit violent behavior likes fights that have happened on Carnival should be put off at the next port, a $500 fine just isn't enough. DH and I experienced a drunk passenger one evening in the smoking section outside who started yelling at us because we wouldn't talk to him. He had gone from people to people and everyone ignored him. I guess his anger issues had increased exponentially when he reached us. He was not only horribly foul in his language but he started toward us and threatened to throw DH over the railing! We were on our way to get security when he disappeared and we never saw him again. Terroristic threats are intolerable and, if found, he should have been put off the ship at the next port. There is so much violence and hate these days and we don't need more of it when on vacation. Thats awful and agree this idiot took it to another extreme of rowdy and violent behavior that should have gotten him booted off the ship Thanks for sharing your story Edited November 11, 2022 by Cruise till you drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were more walkers, canes and scooters on that cruise than in a nursing home. No violent behavior on that cruise!! LOL C'mon. There had to be a disagreement during bingo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bollycats Posted November 15, 2022 #108 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I was skeptical when I first read this because I assumed nothing would be enforced. I was wrong. I just got off Radiance last Friday. One day while out by the pool DJ Scratchy (love the name!) was DJ'ing and everyone was dancing. Right in the middle of the song he turns off the music and looks to his right and says "someone over there is smoking. I can smell it. Security will be called. There is a $500 fine". Then he turned the music back up. I was shocked. Didn't hear or see anything else so I guess the person stopped. Or left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, since he's doubling on Security now, they taught him how to break up a fight in the dance club at 2 am when he's laying down the jams!
