    One wonders why a modern ship like this one supposedly is didn’t have any back up systems to restore power. Apparently, it wasn’t engineered very well. My guess is that Carnival may have some issues booking future cruises.

      What got knocked out was the back up systems in addition to the main problems caused by the fire.

        It seems like it took a long time for Carnival to respond and get help to this ship and then a very long time to tow it in. I would guess the Risk Manager from Carnival is looking hard at the procedures used to respond to this emergency. They were almost as bad as the Federal Government responding to Sandy. Remember when the President said that red tape would be cut? Not!

      Nah, they just discount cruises more. This helps speed up cruise from hell amnesia.
