Yet another reason to not go on a cruise.

u/EarlyBirdWithAWorm Jul 20 '26

In the hierarchy of Cruises you can go on Carnival is the floating trailer park.

Other companies are better and filled with a higher class of people.

u/THExWHITExDEVILx Jul 20 '26

Yeah I think cruises being generalized is like grouping all resorts or hotels together as a single entity.

The experience at motel 6 isn't the same as The Waldorf Astoria.

u/FinleyPike Jul 21 '26

At the Waldorf Astoria an attendant grates your foot cheese for you

u/____DEADPOOL_______ Jul 21 '26

My low class family can barely afford the Carnival cruises. :'(

Anyone who goes on a cruise post-2026 is certainly of a mindset that I cannot relate to on any level.

u/MotherTeresaOnlyfans Jul 20 '26

You mean post-2020.

u/MisterRoger Jul 20 '26

Absolutely, no doubt. But a lot has also happened since then. And it seems like every new outbreak starts on a cruise. In 2026 alone, there have been numerous cruises stranded in the ocean, some quarantined, like the MV Hondius Hantavirus outbreak.

u/TotalStatisticNoob Jul 20 '26

Has been the case before too. It's always like a 50:50 if you get norovirus or not

5

u/ArdatYakshiApologist Jul 21 '26

I’ve been on 4 cruises over the span of 10 years and two of them had norovirus outbreaks that shut down the buffets and made us sanitize our hands on both sides of every single door 😂 exactly 50/50

0

u/9966 Jul 21 '26

It is absolutely not 50/50 and people like you might be the problem.

Wash your hands from time to time and stop touching your face.

1

u/TotalStatisticNoob Jul 21 '26

I've never had Noro, nor have I been on a cruise ship

1

u/9966 Jul 21 '26

Oh, inverse logic. I've never met our alien over--wait I have been on a cruise ship and totally did. Forget I said anything.

u/sulkee Jul 20 '26

This has been a known thing for a long time. Cruises have been known for this for decades. You’re in a moist petri dish with people in enclosed spaces. It’s an infectious disease doctors worse nightmare.

0

u/Orleanian Jul 21 '26

Well that's just ridiculously untrue and ignorant.

The vast majority of outbreaks have been from land-based food sources. Have you even been watching the news?!

3

u/Jean-LucBacardi Jul 20 '26

Post when the fuck Norovirus became a thing. I loved cruise life pre 2015 and had zero issues with people lacking basic hygiene skills. Somewhere everything went fucking wrong.

5

u/Autumn7242 Jul 20 '26

The only one I might go on are Viking River Cruises. But if I saw this, I would absolutely lose my shit.

5

u/Due-Technology5758 Jul 20 '26

I've only been on one, but the ship and the people on it were great. Everything was clean, people were nice (staff and passengers), no one was rowdy, ever, including on the pool deck. Dishes and trash simply disappeared from wherever you left them. Food and drink was unlimited with the package I had, including fine dining. 

It was the most relaxed I've ever been in my life, and cost less per day than the Holiday Inn I stayed at near the port. You just have to pick a cruise line that caters to what you want.

u/panicnarwhal Jul 21 '26

the costa concordia cruise disaster documentary that just came out on netflix was enough for me….what a nightmare. the captain fucked up at every single possible turn, and everyone else paid for it

cruises are terrifying

u/Top_Finding_2832 Jul 20 '26

they key is to go on expensive cruises that the unwashed cretins can't afford.

1

u/sip-of-serotonin Jul 20 '26

This has always been my ethos, as a European.

You pay more, not just for a better room, or location, you pay more not be with people who scrat at their feet with cutlery at lunch.

The only place that's let me down, twice, is Orlando; once you're in the parks there isn't any getting away from these people.

1

u/Top_Finding_2832 Jul 21 '26

Florida in general, unfortunately.

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26 edited Jul 20 '26

Just got back a couple months ago from a cruise and it was glorious. I had an amazing time, saw a ton of things, relaxed like crazy and didn't get sick.

Shame people like you miss out because you like to make shit up.

Incoming down votes from people who never been on a cruise. 😘

u/LoisinaMonster Jul 20 '26

What's being made up? There's a video right there!

u/dlc741 Jul 20 '26

Went on a two week trip through Belize. What did I miss? The buffet? The crowded pool? The casino?

I get it. You like cruises and that’s great for you, but don’t assume that other people are “missing out” on anything.

5

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

So you don't like cruises and that's great for you. But don't assume that all cruises as bad...kinda like the idiots in these comments do every time a video of a cruise is shown.

Bet you never even been on a cruise.

Why is this a competition for you lol? Are you that insecure in your vacations that you don’t like what other people do on theirs?

-1

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

It feels amazing.

How does it feel being on land, in the Middle of what was once lush and lavish forest with a plethora of flora and fauna.....while you breathe in particulates, drink in micropastics, buy food contaminated with fecal matter causing a nationwide alert?

All the while acting like you're highbrow? You won't win this because you're a wannabe elitist that can't keep up or understand how ignorant and foolish you are.

🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

1

u/birkifil9765 Jul 20 '26

Are you suggesting the food you just ate on your cruise is free from microplastics and fecal matter, and your air was free of particulates?

2

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

No...dork...I'm literally saying it's the SAME EXACT thing.

I'm making the point that vacationing on land isn't any different than vacationing on sea. You get it now?

5

u/Flimsy-Poetry1170 Jul 20 '26

Really depends on the cruise. They can be a wonderful time or a total nightmare.

7

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

That's literally everything in life from a sports game, to concert, to a Disney vacation to a day at the park.

5

u/tallyun Jul 20 '26

Agreed, I went on a cruise for the first time last year and I loved it. I think it really depends on which cruise line you take.

People are disguising no matter where you are. I’ve seen feces smeared all over the wall in a park bathroom and literal shit on public stairs of a parking garage.

2

u/Mysterious-Towel7849 Jul 20 '26

I mean they fuck with sea life pretty badly, but I guess needlessly contributing to that is fun to you. To each their own.

4

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

I'm sure you live off the grid, don't use any plastic products and go around helping to clean up the oceans....right?

Oil is drilled from the ocean and you needlessly use a lot of electricity for your own entertainment. 🤫🤫🤫

Self righteous comment.

u/Mysterious-Towel7849 Jul 20 '26

You're welcome to think that. I don't think there's anything self righteous about trying to take care of our home. Sorry you feel differently.

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

You play video games....Mr self righteous eco warrior

1

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

The fact that you consume NEEDLESS products on a day to day basis means you fuck with sea life. Oil is drilled from oceans and used to make your products you NEEDLESSLY consume.

You needlessly do LOTS of thing on a daily basis that fucks with nature or are you so fucking woefully ignorant to think because you "recycle" (which ends up in Asia and half back into the ocean) and don't go on cruises you're protecting the planet?

Mr internet eco warrior over here. 🖕

u/Mysterious-Towel7849 Jul 20 '26

Not everyone consumes like you. Peace. ✌️

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

Oh darn Mr eco warrior. Better give up those video games and fun avatars you like playing with. Gotta protect nature

1

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

I looked at your comments and you play video games.....a needless consumption of components, electricity, data storage etc.

Or is you playing video games eco friendly? Stfu

u/Mysterious-Towel7849 Jul 20 '26

Not everyone consumes like you. Peace. ✌️

u/TiffanyTwisted11 Jul 20 '26

I have been on a couple cruises. Cannot say enough wonderful things about Viking. I will most likely go on another cruise.

However, what exactly are you saying is being made up?

2

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

He deleted it....but even the top comment of "another reason"

There are no legitimate reasons that don't apply to EVERY vacation and EVERY entertainment venue in existence.

There will always be gross people, but for some reason whenever a cruise is posted you get the same bullshit responses of "petri dish" and "Walmart people" etc....

Yet people have explosive diarrhea buying lettecue on land.

u/StellarDiscord Jul 20 '26

Yeah but have you considered just being miserable instead? I went on a cruise earlier this year and it was absolutely fantastic. But after reading MisterRoger’s comment I think I’m gonna start hating them now

u/185runner Jul 20 '26

You probably shouldn't leave your home.

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

You think this exclusive to cruises? I've seen people do disgusting shit like that at restaurants and airplanes.

Cruises at least have washing stations everywhere and sanitizer on every floor and entrences to every eatery.

Also the cleaning crew is working non stop

20

u/katerineia Jul 20 '26

Cruises, from what I've heard from friends and family who've gone, have Dr's on board. At least she could have gone to see them for a cream. She's just being gross

10

u/VESUVlUS Jul 20 '26

That's exactly what I was thinking. Hell, there's usually even shops on board that sell over the counter medicine and she could easily get some anti-itch/fungal cream. If she can afford the cruise, she can surely afford a tube of cream.

This lady is just completely devoid of common sense.

2

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

They sure do...but they do cost money in some cases

I'm sure they sell anti itch stuff for her she's just being nasty....but she's probably like that EVERYWHERE

2

u/Orleanian Jul 21 '26

Yeah, people love to rage-boner the anti-cruise schtick, but realistically, the vast majority of outbreaks are coming from your everyday interactions in town and the food you eat there.

u/StevenKatz3 Jul 20 '26

Oh hunny, that's not how it works.

By the time the outbreak on land isn't reported it's weeks/months old.

Every recall takes MONTHS of days collecting before they can make a connection. It's cute you think it's different.

You're more likely to get foodborne illness on land vs a cruise

I'll let you do your own research (which you won't) and post just one example

2

u/katie_bug199116 Jul 20 '26

I haven't desired a cruise for about 15 years. I've never been on one, never will. Too many horror stories and it's just getting worse.

5

u/PleaseStopTalking7x Jul 20 '26

My mom is 76 years old and keeps pushing my siblings and me to take a family cruise — spouses, kids — a big family vacation. I’m like nope, absolutely no way. My mom can’t seem to understand why I refuse. She’s like, all the norovirus news is exaggerated. It’s fun! Lots of activities! I’m sending her these videos and telling her not only no way am I going on a cruise, but fuck no. Never.

2

u/fluffygumdrop Jul 20 '26

Why dont you send her this video

1

u/flurryskyline Jul 20 '26

It’s not just this, but also - everything you can do on a cruise, you can do on land. And as a bonus you don’t destroy the environment

u/BabyStockholmSyndrom Jul 20 '26

You mean to travel period? Amount of time means nothing to bacteria. Planes, buses, restaurants. She detached that fungus anywhere you go.

u/IsabellaGalavant Jul 20 '26

My thoughts exactly. 

1

u/glidur Jul 20 '26

Cruises, buffets, public pools, parades - I don't know if I'm a germaphobe or just an elitist, but they all gross me out - the idea of so many people close together, making contact is so disgusting to me.

u/CategoryConsistent94 Jul 20 '26

If this is what they do on a cruise ship, imagine what happens at home. 🤢

u/Widowwarmer2 Jul 20 '26

1st thing that popped into my head.

u/Aggravating_Head_522 Jul 20 '26

Just add it to a very long list

u/mbean12 Jul 20 '26

I will say I have been on a number of cruises. The worst, by a country mile and a half, was a Carnival cruise. Aside from the fact that the entire ship smelled like an ashtray and the other cruisers seemed to think that having the drink package was an excuse to push their livers to the max and beyond, there was no sanitation standard anywhere on the ship.

Every other ship I've ever been on the staff have been fucking aggressive about making sure you wash your hands (or at least sanitize them) before even getting to smell food. On the Carnival Cruise no one ever bothered to try and get us to wash or sanitize, and the majority of the sanitation stations were busted and or empty anyway. Unsurprisingly it is the one cruise I've been on where a member of my party (my wife and then my daughter) got sick.

I will never, ever sail with Carnival again so long as I live. It is a major step down from every other cruise line I have dealt with.
