Compensation After the 2013 Carnival Triumph Incident
After an engine-room fire on February 10, 2013, the disabled Carnival Triumph reached Mobile, Alabama, under tow on February 14. The 3,141 guests disembarked there, and Carnival arranged onward transportation.
For the interrupted cruise that had departed on February 7, Carnival promised to refund the cruise fare and travel expenses, as well as provide a credit equal to the value of the interrupted cruise. For other departures canceled because of repairs, the company published separate refund and discount policies.
