[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Side bar but I wonder how often people fall overboard. My husband wants our family to go on a cruise and I have to admit, this is a big fear. (Sorry to derail.)[/quote] This article (about a similar disappearance, but with a happier ending) says 212 people went overboard from 2009-2019 https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/cruises/2023/02/22/cruise-ship-overboard-detection-system/11172790002/ That's really low. If you don't drink to excess and you do watch your kids and have everyone follow the ship's rules (especially in bad weather) the odds of going overboard are really tiny--far less than the odds of other types of injuries on or off a cruise ship. I can think of many other reasons not to go on cruises, and I don't like them myself, but fear of going overboard is not a logical reason to avoid them.[/quote]
