re: Carnival Cruise line updates policies, some are not happy

I suffer from Black Fatigue, too. Then again, I live in Louisiana. I wonder what it’s like in other states that are closer to the 13% national average instead of the 33% we have here.

It's part of their culture to go on cruises and act like absolute assholes? frick these people.

Yep. I have enjoyed the Haven before. I disembark from a NCL cruise (not in Haven this time) in Seattle today and won't be going on NCL anymore. This ship was 50% jeets. Truly a smelly and rude people. And I'm not talking about the workers, that's whatever. 50% of the customers.

We cruised NCL twice in the last few years. Both times The Haven. Amazing experience the first time. Second time was a similar experience to yours. They were high in numbers and with means but annoying behavior such as letting all of their toddlers splash and jump in the adult Haven pool.

I probably won’t go on a cruise again save for maybe a small exclusive line.

Assuming he doesn’t mean crypto traders who are prone to sell, I think the “it’s short for pajeet” should convey his meaning

cruising carnival out of NOLA

back when carnival first started cruising out of New Orleans a friend of mine started a company to staff the embark/debark process at the terminal. We hired and trained and then staffed the terminal to get people and luggage on and off. This was right before Katrina 2004ish. Even back then it was a majority black crowd and they couldn’t even behave in the terminal; I can’t imagine what it must be like on the ship and fortunately I will never find out in person

As so many others have pointed out, simple rules to ensure safety and comfort for all passengers are immediately described as racist because the behavior they are trying to curb is predominantly black behavior. And it’s hilarious to me that the black community self identifies with these policy changes because they know they behave badly and they don’t care. They don’t see a problem with it and that’s…the problem

NCL is 1 billion percent better than Carnival

We've been on two cruises. The first was on Carnival several years ago. It was OK, but I had no real desire to go back. A lot of my reasoning was some of what these rules seem to be about. This year, we went on an NCL cruise to Alaska, and I must say it was a very different experience. We are thinking about trying NCL again for another destination, we liked it that much. I compare it to the difference between shopping for clothes at Walmart versus Dillard's.

Nailed it. Its goes in line with how some people say waking up on time, not being late and choosing healthy foods are classified as white privilege. They don’t take the time to learn and abide to these basic human concepts

Seems like good business sense to me.

It’s weird to think that if a certain group of people weren’t here, there would be a need for certain rules.

People call it racism but it’s actually in truth just using reason.

Once a certain group comes into a area it’s not long before that area looks and smells and sounds like shite.
- Rap music blaring in the neighborhoods, Gas stations, or social events.
- Trash starts to appear everywhere and it’s nothing to clean their car out at a red light .
- Crime goes up, places thst for years had zero murders or rapes, etc. becomes the norm to have them every year.

The only thing that changed was the demographic of the people who live there.
