Before the Concordia disaster what other Carnival Cruise Line accidents occurred?

 

A:
Our Galveston maritime attorneys found that Carnival Cruise Lines has experienced a series of accidents, both major and minor, including a fairly substantial cluster of accidents in 2009. For instance, in February 2010, the Carnival ship Ecstasy collided with and wrecked a passenger gangway in Galveston when it kept backing after it should have stopped. That very same day, the Carnival ship Miracle ran into a dock in St. Kitts and put a large gash in its hull.
 
A couple of months before that, the Carnival ship Splendor ran into a pier in Puerto Vallarta and caused damage. Several months prior to that accident, the Carnival ship Legend ran into the Enchantment of the Seas in Cozumel, which caused minor damage to both ships.
 
And in April 2010, the Carnival Ecstasy made an abrupt turning maneuver that caused the ship to list at sea near Mexico's Yucatan peninsula. About 60 people were injured in the accident. Accounts of the incident say that ship's personnel gave varying, conflicting reasons for the sudden and disastrous maneuver.
 
Carnival Cruise Lines suffers at least its share of accidents, but sea cruises probably remain the modern world's safest form of transportation. The problem is that when accidents at sea, like when accidents happen in the air on a plane, they can be so much more spectacularly deadly than those involving ordinary ground transportation.
 
And the negligence and reckless behavior that sometimes causes these accidents can also be exceptional. If you've been hurt by such an accident, you probably need help obtaining the just financial compensation you deserve for your needless injuries. But you're up against a big corporate entity.
