One obvious is that Carnival Corp. has been skimping on maintenance for

No, go crawl back under the rock you came from.

I thought you were the one to object to personal attacks?

The only REAL obvious here is that you have another sagenda in your posts.
Perhaps you work for another cruise line, or perhaps your mother didn't
change your wet nappies often enough. Maybe you just like to show how
intelligent you think you are by putting down a corporation that couldn't
be bothered defending themselves from whiney wimps like yourself. In any
case, you are posting pure speculation based on vaporous evidence.

I notice that you did not address the issue. You resorted to personal
attacks, which violate the rules of information exchange. I responded
with a comment that applies to anyone resorting to unprovoked personal
attacks.

No, I have never worked for nor have investments in any cruise line
companies.

I am just a concerned passenger who has cruised on Carnival (twice),
Holland America (twice), Cunard and Princess. I have seen maintenance
issues within the last two years on Carnival and Holland America, which
implies a problem with their corporate ethic.

Now, the question that you have evaded: Do you, "Nooffa Subject", work
for or have significant (to you) investments in CCL?
