In recent news a carnival cruise ship in the Gulf of Mexico has been stranded dew to a fire in one of the engine rooms. The fire caused a malfunction in propulsion system so two tug boats are need to pull it to shore. The boat was about 150 miles off of the coast and had 3,143 passengers on board. At first the bath rooms on board did no work but now some are. The passengers are going to receive a full refund.
I think that this would be a horrible experience and that I would be really mad.
What are your views?

This is why i would never go on a cruise i think to many bad things could happen and i dont wanna be stranded out on the ocean for a long time.
This wasn't even the first one from this company, I think it's time for a redesign or a completely new fleet of cruise ships.
I never want to go on a cruise. This is why. I would hate for this to happen to me. I would never want to be stranded in the ocean.
That cruise liner company is going to lose a lot of money and take a lot flack for this. There has to be a lot of angry people on that ship.
This is so scary because it could happen to every of us. When you go to the vacation you can never expect something like that to happen.
I think that that would be a terrible experience. I would be so mad! I heard that the smell on the boat is unbearable.
That would be a horrible experience if the bathrooms didn't start working. I have always wanted to go on a cruise though.
I would be kinda of worried if i was on the ship because that engine could of blow up and alot of people could of been injured.
This is awful! it's good that the passengers are getting refunds at least! This does kind of scare me to go on a cruise because of something like this happening, it would be such a horrible experiance
That would be so scary! i have no interest for going on a cruise and never really have, and this is why.
