Carnival Cruise: Titanic Waiting to Happen

Posted on 11:47 by amla
The news that the Carnival Cruise ship Carnival Triumph achieved sentience, broke free of her moorings, and tried to escape is only slightly surprising. The ship has realized that it is only a matter of time before the company's greedy executives and incompetent captains kill again.
When Carnival's Costa Concordia sank in 2012 it killed 32 people.
The ship was just trying to save human lives. It is a pity she was recaptured and will be forced back into service.

It is a wonder, however, that anyone who is not suicidal would book a trip aboard a Carnival ship since the cruise line and the word "death" are synonymous.
