Luxury Cruise Passengers Stage Hunger Strike Over Engine Failure
TL;DR Summary
Passengers aboard the luxury cruise ship SH Diana are staging a hunger strike after an engine failure forced the cancellation of their Antarctic voyage. Despite paying up to $12,689 for the trip, passengers are upset with Swan Hellenic's offer of a partial refund or future cruise credit, demanding a full refund instead. The ship is currently en route to Ushuaia, Argentina for repairs, while Swan Hellenic CEO Andrea Zito has called the hunger strike "counterproductive" and emphasized the compensation offered exceeds legal requirements.
