Guess how much Carnival is getting paid for 3 cruise ships? $240 Million for 6 months and the ships are just docked the whole time.

Each ship holds 2,000 passengers. So Carnival is making $40 Million a month getting about $15,000 a month to rent each cabin.

Its all about the almight dollar. Always and forever.
Utter absurdity! When ya think there are good folks in the southern states with experience related to body collection (usually from the gulf) - I know two and they'd throw up if they realized others were getting paid $21K! They do it for police salaries!

It's always nice to see some real compassion showing from cruise lines and great they get deals for just $15K/cabin - my heart bleeds for em.

It's clear there is still nada organization there yet - or a deliberate attempt to skim the last buck out of this.
