$30 taxi? but uber only costs $7-8 each way to and from the port of Miami to bayside ... same with Lyft ... also you signed a cruise contract therefore are not entitled to any money back or compensation because of an accident ... and you didnt even lose a whole day off the cruise but would like to be compensated for it ... cool beans!

Do you realize the young man that went overboard was with a group called wishes4me? He was autistic and his family thinks he may have thought he was going swimming. So, your cruise got interrupted and you are upset about a $15 credit?? Shame on you.

On top of everything else, how can a shower be confusing?

You didn’t get compensation for something that Carnival didn’t cause? Someone lost their life. Sounds like you need a little perspective.

While there's too much wrong with this entitled rant to cover, I think the comment about food being small portions was the funniest. You do know you can order as much as you want and they happily bring it to you right 5 entrees, 6 appetizers 7 desserts.. take it from someone who knows. I did notice however I don't have anyone on this app saying they should have charged us more for the extra day we got to be on the ship when they went back to try to respond to the tragedy.

FYI, I happen to like that they give small portions. It prevents food waste, and you can always order 2 entrees.

I don't understand what the connection is between the death of your fellow passenger, your $30 taxi, and how you feel you should be given money.
