Cruise ship injury has become a significant concern for cruise ship passengers in recent years. Passengers have suffered numerous types of trauma while on board a vessel that they believed to be safe. Cruise ship injuries can take many forms, and there are many potential ways for a passenger to suffer an injury or accident while onboard a cruise ship. Because a cruise liner passenger is in completely unfamiliar surroundings, whereas the cruise liner company is intimately aware of every hazard on board, the cruise liner company has the responsibility to guard every passenger against any dangers, keep dangerous situations from occurring, and warn passengers of potential dangers if needed. The passengers on board also have an expectation of safety while on board, and the cruise liner company is responsible for providing adequate surveillance and security to prevent any passenger or crewmember from assaulting or raping anyone on board. Cruise ship rapes have become more and more common, as passengers or crewmembers consume alcohol or are emboldened by the seeming endlessness and desertion of corridors late at night.
The truth is, Cruise liner companies are responsible for the safety and health of every passenger on board.
