roundabout Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 If I broke an arm or a leg because of an employee error ( did they say from lack of proper training) whos responsible to drive I'd sure expect my $ back or another cruise. It's not like I got to drive and made the error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketwatch Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Hi Rose. I think so too. Actually the ins. co. made a final offer which would have paid all her bills AND given her 5k free and clear but she refused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazelson Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Sounds about right - they get paid win or lose - kind of like doctors lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketwatch Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Yes. Actually he had nothing to lose and everything to gain by pushing for a trial. She OTOH had was vulnerable. It would be interesting to have been a fly on the wall so to speak when they were discussing the strategy that led to this ill fated decision.

TVLady2 Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 My brother & his wife were on that cruise. He was thrown out of the pool and into a railing which caused many injurie's. His wife was sunbathing on deck and her lounge chair slid into others but thankfully she was not injured. Princess is still covering all his medical bills and he still continues to sail with them. He has not sued them yet, but might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailingrose Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 TVLady2 I'm sorry your brother got hurt. It was a terrible thing and I'm glad to hear Princess is doing the right thing. Only the lawyers are going to get rich with this suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
