Are cruises safe onboard?
In general, cruises are quite safe onboard. Each ship has a staff of security personnel that is always on duty. However, guests should treat a cruise ship like any public place, and be on their guard against theft or personal harm. Leave valuables at home or store them in a stateroom safe or at the purser’s office. Passengers should always be aware of their surroundings and in control of their faculties. If you plan on drinking a lot, it’s wise to designate one person to remain sober to ensure the safety of inebriated friends.
