MSC Poesia Detained: Full Refund, But Who Pays Flights?
Watch next: https://youtu.be/DY-yIzLC5-g · More: Cruise News and Rules playlist Who pays the flights? MSC refunds the fare, adds a 100% future cruise credit and will review claims for changed flights home and some hotel nights, but the flights guests took to Miami are not in the offer. The US Coast Guard detained MSC Poesia in Miami on Sunday, Nov 1, over deficiencies with systems on board. The 11 night Caribbean cruise was cancelled, and guests had to leave the ship by noon on Thursday, Nov 5. MSC calls it a regulatory matter. Neither MSC nor the Coast Guard has said which systems failed, and no clearance date has been announced. Is that a fair deal, or should MSC pay for everything? Tell me in the comments.
