A Cruise Ship with italian flag "Costa Allegra" is drifting on the Indian ocean after a fire. They don't describe any other incidents, is located around 260 miles from Seychelles (Kenia Coast with 1049 passengers. There are hurt people on board.
 
Last News about Costa Allegra. There is NO HURT people. And the fire has been extinguished. There is help on the way.
 
Same company as the Costa Concordia that wrecked in Italy. Nearest place for repairs would be Kenya, Pakistan, or India. Seychelles does not have any harbor for large boats. They have to anchor off.
 
That Cruise Line is in a string of bad luck. Must have been a fairly significant fire to wipe out all power.
 
Not really, a switchboard fire could probably do it...

I guess in terms of "Excitement", Costa is the line to choose!

Great line OHB"
That'd make a good Advert for "Sumpin happn' allatim" line.
 
If they managed to keep at least one buffet open nobody on board probably noticed
 
I was just thinking what are they doing for toilets?
There is 1000+ people onboard. Only emergency power.

Now the French fishing vessel won't give way to faster Tugs causing a 10 to 12 hour further delay. What are the financial aspects of responding and towing?
 
He probably looks to make some pretty money for the tow, and doesn't want to give it up. I wouldn't blame him.
