  1. I think the captain was too busy to go on the deck shake their hands.

  2. Gee….harden up people.

  3. What do you expect when you book a Trip of The "Spirit Airlines" of the sea?????

  4. Abandon ship LMAO yes girl because jumping off of a perfectly good ship during a storm is wayyyy safer than just staying on it until the storm is over 😂 you’re on the ocean bro. I don’t know why this is so shocking to you anyone

  5. Was it smart to enter a known storm … no. Crew did a good job of keeping the ship afloat. The communication breakdown is a big failure, keeping everyone up to date vs suddenly calling abandon ship has drastically different outcomes.

  6. Cruise ships have always been a joke, big deal 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 no one to blame but themselves 😢😢😢😢😮

  7. so nobody talks about the rest of the cruise, just the bad part lol! storms at sea happen. that storm was no joke. it looked like a hurricane and was huge. there was no avoiding it.

  8. Fools going on cruises during Hurricane season, and surprised weather is bad, CLASSIC!

  9. These are cruise ship people. They wanted a soothing voice and more soft ice cream.
    Anything less in 2023 is unacceptable.

  10. Y'all were lucky. You got to experience what the sea has to offer. Why go on a cruise if you want it to be boring?

  11. Carnival has all their employees in the YT comment sections trying to cover their a&&. It wasn't a freak storm. It was well forecasted. Corporate made the decision to sail into it to keep on schedule.

  12. That massive ships is NOTgoing down in that little storm ☔️ CALM DOWN!!

  13. Poop cruise can’t catch a break no matter the name change lol

  14. Attention FlatLanders: it's called a cruise ship because your hotel actually goes out on the ocean. Oceans, if you haven't heard, actually contain water, and water reacts to wind. If these things scare you, then perhaps you should go to Las Vegas. The cruise ships in Vegas never leave the dock, never go out on the ocean, any ocean, so you'll actually not have to worry about being on the water or becoming frightened by the wind. And shame on ABC for such pathetic reportage.

  15. Kind of hard to believe this was a “horror” when there were no injuries.

  16. the Skipper must have had a good nights sleep and the Watchkeepers were too afraid to ask for permission to make the pipes 🤣

  17. Just got off one,,,wow!!!thank God everyone is ok,,,I hope,,,

  18. This is the same ship that lost power due to a fire some years ago and people were forced to poop in bags since nothing was working. It was the carnival Triumph now renamed Carnival Sunshine.

  19. It cracks me up when people take vacations and NOT look deeply into the forecast. The worst storms in the Carolinas occur March thru May. Need to plan better 🙂

  20. the ships know exactly what the weather is like yet they sail right into it

  21. I only cruise royal Caribbean. If they see bad weather, they turn they have the best Doppler radar’s. This is an excusable, and the captain not keeping passengers in the loop should be fired. Carnival’s is a piece of crap cruise line.

  22. Haven't been on a cruise and never plan on going on a cruise…

  23. 10/10 stupid story.

  24. 0:47: "I was fully prepared we were going to hear abandon ship over the loud speaker" 🤣 like… you're going into an ocean that's volatile with hurricane force winds in a tiny life boat?

  25. Why is it always Carnival??? 😂

  26. Say no to cruises!

    U🐝🐂💩N

  27. Love Carnival. I won’t be skipping my next trip with them over one trip that didn’t go well because of weather!

  28. In the Navy, we called this “Tuesday.” Lol.

  29. Sad to see this. This was my first Carnival ship a year ago. It is so pretty with the colorful LED waterfall

  30. lol calls abandon ship, what a moron.

  31. No excuse for risking the cruisers’ lives for profit.

  32. I mean, it’s a storm. What do you expect to happen in the middle of the ocean? There’s nothing they could do.

  33. Yes we will abandon ship……….into the same storm in a much smaller lifeboat. Great idea!!!!!

  34. Do they blame climate change… 😂
