Are you at risk for a cruise ship injury?

The simple fact is, an accident or injury or illness will occur on a cruise ship on every cruise line.

With over 17 million people traveling on cruise ships each year, the chance of a serious injury exists – and injury from physical assault, sexual assault, trips, falls and alcohol related accidents is more common than people think. 

Am I at risk?

Potentially.

And these chances are increased when negligence on the part of the cruise lines or their crew occurs.

How to stay safe?

  • be aware of your surrounding
  • follow posted signs and instructions
  • obey the rules of the ship
  • heed warnings when posted
  • reduce alcohol intake if possible
  • keep a watchful eye on your children and teens
