Hundreds end up sick on another cruise from SC

CHARLESTON, S.C. -- (AP) - Hundreds of passengers have again taken ill
with an intestinal bug on a Celebrity Cruise ship's third straight trip
from South Carolina.

Cruise line spokeswoman Cynthia Martinez said Monday 350 of the 1,829
passengers on the Celebrity Mercury got ill during the latest cruise
which left Charleston on March 8.

The line announced it was canceling a Monday port call in the British
Virgin Islands and returning to Charleston on Thursday, a day earlier
than scheduled.

The ship has been undergoing cleaning at sea and will be cleaned again
in Charleston.

Officials say more than 400 passengers and crew got sick during a cruise
that returned to Charleston on Feb. 26. On the next sailing from
Charleston, 182 people took ill.

I wonder if they were served Maryland soft shell crab.

My wife has been wanting to take a cruise. I would prefer to fly to
Cancun, Jamaica, or Costa Rica. There must be some common denominator
to these cruise ship illnesses. By now you would think they would have
it figured out. These people will all get some sort of refund and a
future cruise credit. They can't be too happy handing those out as
often as they do.

I don't believe there's ever been an outbreak on a Disney Cruise. That was one
of their 'claims to fame' the last time we went.

There are too many kids on conventional cruise lines. Thanks but I'll
keep pushing the flying itinerary.

There are far fewer kids on the real ocean liner cruises and on the
National Geo cruises. Better destinations, too.

That was my point. Too many on conventional cruises and an abundance on
Disney Cruises. They have their place, but there not for me.

I don't like the looks or the construction methods used in the wedding
cake cruise barges. They don't even look like ships. They remind me of
Las Vegas hotels.

Too many old people on the other cruises. Some people are cruisers, and
others are not. I and my wife fall in to the latter category.

Why not just fly to your destination? You just want to get there,
remember? You don't want to see any scenery in between.
