The Unwelcoming Cruise
Most crews aboard a cruise ship typically would try and hold their tongue when handling rowdy and uncooperative passengers, especially if said passengers are affecting the safety of others. Keep in mind, you’re not in a theme park or a hotel where you can easily be kicked out and have to drive back home. You’re stuck in the middle of the freezing dangerous waters of the ocean, with the only thing holding you in are the handlebars looped around the top deck of the vessel. If anything were to happen with your tickets when riding aboard the cruise, most of the time, you'd be asked to either pay right up or leave, typically before the cruise had left the arms of the dock.
So… how on god’s green earth did Tom and Betty get themselves stuck in a situation like this? Who really knows. Bad luck probably. The only kind of cruises where passengers would be forced to walk the plank are those Barbados-based pirate-themed cruise lines that have a surprisingly large number of good scores on Tripadvisor. But you gotta admit, the crew’s pirate outfits are a perfect 10/10… even if they’re most likely REAL cutthroat buccaneers. Betty’s kind of fancy, but not really what she wanted on a relaxing vacation with her boyfriend.
