I care about sharing!
Recent events at major cruise lines have sparked heated discussions about airborne safety and safeguards. Pool fights from Royal Caribbean Private Island COCOCAY Arrival on the infamous “Chicken Tender Battle” carnival At sunrise, these disputes have made many cruisers wonder what steps can be taken to prevent such holiday interruptions.
Although these events have attracted headlines and social media attention, they are still relatively rare when you consider the millions of passengers who are peacefully cruising each year. Nevertheless, when the battle does break out, they affect innocent bystanders and create an uncomfortable atmosphere for everyone on the ship.
We and ours Life tour community on Facebook To get them thinking about what action should the cruise liners take in battle. The answers are passionate, creative and sometimes surprising. This is what the cruiser thinks needs to happen.
Direct consequence: Get them off the ship
The most common advice in our community is to quickly evacuate from the vessels. “The first time they were started from the ship Call Port“A group member said, responding to the views of dozens of others. This approach clearly conveys a clear message that fighting cannot be tolerated when the problem is eliminated immediately.


Another community member suggested drawing inspiration from airlines: “Airplanes tow people away and charge why cruises cannot.” This comparison highlights how other travel industries deal with disruptive passengers, and many believe cruises should follow suit.
The best advice for community action now include:
- The next port is demolished quickly No exceptions or appeals
- Restricted cabin or the detention area of the ship until evacuation
- No refund policy The remaining cruise days
- Police participation At the disembark port when applicable
Some members are creative with their advice. Someone joked about bringing back the old sea punishment: “Go on the boards! Or drag them to their port or the next stop and they can find their way home.” Although obviously mocking, the basic message is serious: the consequences need to make sense immediately.
Lifetime ban cases
Perhaps the most popular advice is to impose a lifetime ban for anyone involved in a physical dispute. One member representing the majority said: “Ban life and leave them at the next port to find their way home.”
What makes this idea even more compelling is the suggestion of sharing these bans on all cruises. One community member suggested: “All cruise companies share a list and if you are banned, you will be banned.” Another added: “There should be a cruise company listing banned cruisers to keep them away from other cruise companies’ vessels.”
This approach will create a whole industry-wide “sailless list” similar to Aviation's flashless list. As one member said, “They should be arrested for misconduct and put on the Sailless List like no flight list.”
Financial consequences of injury
In addition to the ban, many cruise community members also recommend hitting the real-wrenching troublemaker: their wallets. One member suggested: “Add a fine for a lifetime ban”, while another suggested “$500 per person to participate in the battle.”


The idea of confiscating cruise costs has also emerged repeatedly. One member suggested: “Dropping them off at the closest telephone port. Confiscated the remaining days, no refunds.” This ensured that troublemakers lost not only their vacation, but also their money.
Some members even suggested adding safe deposits. One cruiser advises: “Rise the credit to $700, and $500 per person.” Such precautions may make people think twice before escalating the differences.
Enhanced security: the first line of defense
While the punishment after fact is important, many community members focus on prevention through better safety. One member stressed: “More security”, while another member noted that “more security is needed, especially after midnight in public areas.”
A particularly insightful comment came from a member who emphasized the training issues: “I think there are major issues with the safety of the big cruise companies. I don't think they have enough training and I don't think they have proper training. One or two 5'5” men can't handle a fight of 10 people. Another thing is something else. Another thing is that they sit there and then let the verbal argument prolong and then start the body.
Key security improvements our community wants to see:
- More obvious security On the entire ship, especially late at night
- Better training programs For security personnel who are downgraded by conflict
- A larger security team Ability to handle multiplayer events
- Active intervention Before a verbal dispute becomes a body
- Casino style safety approach That's valid but not invasive
Several members suggested drawing inspiration from land-based institutions. “I think they should take notes from the Las Vegas casino. casino The safety is very impressive. A experienced cruiser pointed out.

Solve the root cause: Alcohol management
Many community members pointed out that excessive drinking is a major factor in cruise disputes. “Most people either drink too much or are affected by some type of drug,” observed a member with over 15 years of experience in cruising.


The community has proposed several ways to better manage alcohol consumption:
- Implement daily beverage restrictions Instead of unlimited packages
- Revoke alcohol privileges The rest of the cruises after the incident
- Monitor passenger behavior Peak drinking time is closer
- Increase safe deposits Dissuading excessive consumption
- Consider eliminating unlimited drink packs On a shorter “Party Parade”
Some suggested measures: “Stop the drink package” and “Stop drinking to idiots” are common discounts. Others have proposed a more modest approach to balance passenger enjoyment with safety issues.
One member noted that prevention should start early: “The problem needs to be addressed before it starts. I think drinking restrictions and safety personnel are the first steps.”
Party cruise issues
Several community members identified patterns of when and where these events occurred. One member said: “It seems to happen at a shorter, lower cost parade. Another agreed: “Selling 3 and 4-day alcohol parades.” Fights always seem to happen in these short cruises. ”
This observation suggests that certain types of cruising attract passengers more likely to engage in disruptive behavior. Understanding this model can help cruise routes implement targeted prevention strategies to achieve high-risk sailing.

Zero tolerance policy
Many community members have called for a clear, zero-tolerance policy for communications. One member suggested: “Maybe keep every guest out of battle.
The key is to make sure passengers understand the consequences before boarding. Another member suggested: “The troublemaker can be removed from unified unified security from the beginning.”
Reality Check: How common are these events?
Although these suggestions are passionate and kind, it is worth noting that there are several occasions in our community where experienced cruisers have never seen such an event. One member said: “I've never seen anything like this on a cruise ship. Literally, my idea is how people not only get along with each other.”
Another added: “I have been parading for more than 15 years and have not seen any parade battles.” The third member noted: “I've been to 12 years old.” [cruises] Carnival, I have never seen anything like this before! ”
This reality check reminds us that despite these events making headlines and viral videos, they are still relatively uncommon in the wider context of cruising travel.

What does this mean for future cruises
The enthusiastic response from our community shows that the cruiser is very concerned about maintaining a peaceful, relaxed atmosphere that makes the cruise special. While combat and disruptions may never be completely eliminated, the advice of experienced cruisers provides a roadmap for improvement.
Enhanced safety training, direct consequences, ban sharing across the industry, and better alcohol management can all bring safer and more enjoyable cruising for everyone. The key is to implement these measures in a way that doesn’t make the cruise feel like a police state while still preventing bad behavior.
As one community member wisely pointed out: “There are thousands of cruise ships that need private and public [security]. Make sure people know it won't tolerate it. “Clear communication, visible security and rapid consequences seem to be the winning combination most cruisers want to see.
Whether the cruise line will implement all these suggestions remains to be seen, but it is clear: the cruise community has spoken and they want to take action to protect the vacation experience for everyone they like.
