[Picture LINK] Paul Rossington and Kristen Schroder, from New South Wales state, were discovered missing Thursday morning after the Carnival Spirit docked at Sydney's Circular Quay, at the end of a 10-day journey, said New South Wales Police Superintendent Mark Hutchings.
Rescuers search for Australian couple who fell overboard - CBS News: "Carnival Corp. has been plagued by a series of high-profile problems in recent years. Last year, the Costa Concordia ran aground off the coast of Italy, killing 32 people. Also last year, the Costa Allegra caught fire and lost power in the Indian Ocean, leaving passengers without working toilets, running water or air conditioning for three days. Costa is a division of Carnival Corp.
In February, passengers aboard the Carnival Triumph spent five days without power in the Gulf of Mexico after an engine-room fire disabled the vessel. Those on board complained of squalid conditions, including overflowing toilets and food shortages."

Yea OZ,
I concur with you. A work mate once replied to a female in the office who was bragging about a wonderful 12 day cruise around the Caribbean.
His reply: Why would I spend a lot of money to spend 12 days with 2,000 people I neither know or most likely wouldn't like on a boat I could not escape from?"
She frowned and walked away.
