Three passengers suffered potentially life-long injuries after the Carnival Cruise Ship tips during their vacation. The passengers reported “Titanic-like mayhem” during the trip are now suing the world’s largest cruise line in relation to the incident.
About Cruise Ship Injuries
Just recently in the news, there have been Norovirus outbreaks, drownings at sea, passengers being thrown overboard, and even assaults on cruise ships. Other dangerous circumstances on ships have led passengers to suffer spinal and back injuries, amputations, concussions, brain injuries, broken bones, lacerations, and death. However, for every one case reported, the cruise industry silences others.
In fact, it has only been since 2014 the law commands cruise lines to publicize the crimes committed on their ships.
Cruise lines have a strong desire to protect their brand in the cruise industry and sweep negative experiences under the rug. This is why it is vital to work with a knowledgeable and experienced cruise accident attorney.

Carnival Cruise Ship Tips
Onboard the Carnival Sunshine, passengers in a restaurant were suddenly flung when the ship titled. One passenger now has a painful spinal injury since she flew from a chair during the incident. Then, her husband suffered a wrist injury when he tried to save his wife. Both feel Carnival should adjust their procedures to avoid another accident in the future. Passengers described a scene of chaos as dishes and glasses began breaking as furniture tumbled around the room
Investigators pinpointed a problem with the fin stabilizer on the ship, which caused the dramatic tilt. Each side of the ship has fin stabilizers. Their function is to provide resistance to prevent excess rolling of the ship. The ship returned upright and the cruise continued. However, the incident left many frightened and injured.
