Let's revisit this poll: Will Carnival's recent ongoing issues affect DCL?

OK

and again Carnival is in the news...and no...it's not good.

You couldn't pay me to do a cruise with that company!


EDIT: btw I realize that this incident doesn't have a lot to do with Carnival since it's not likely their fault in this case but every time I see them in the news I cringe

Most know I am not a fan of Carnival line!

However in this case......its NOT Carnivals fault! When ever a vessel is in the shipyard the safety of the vessel is the responsibility of the shipyard.....e.i.....keeping the vessel along side the pier.

A prayer for the missing man overboard.

Same here, but it really has nothing to do with the current problems. Carnival has always been somewhat of a bargain cruise line. I would rather cruise less and pay more for better quality.

Also, Carnival has a media bulls-eye on them right now. Minor incidents that might be common and would never make the headlines will get reported simply because it is Carnival.

Perhaps Carnival should consider renaming the Triumph. Christine comes to mind.
