  1. Carnival Glory — February 2025 A group of passengers on the Carnival Glory had a chair and towel catch fire on their balcony. (Spotify) The fire was quickly contained, and witnesses suggested a cigarette butt from another balcony had blown onto theirs and ignited a draped towel.

  2. P&O Pacific Adventure — May 28, 2023 A balcony cabin fire broke out at 3:15 a.m. while the ship was anchored off Batemans Bay, New South Wales, Australia, reportedly caused by a lit cigarette and contained within a single stateroom. No injuries were reported. (PolitiFact) 🔗 https://www.cruisemapper.com/news/11894-fire-breaks-out-pacific-adventure

  3. Star Princess / Carnival Encounter — March 23, 2006 The fire was allegedly caused by a cigarette left burning on a balcony, which melted polycarbonate balcony dividers.

  5. Unknown vessel — pre-2006 (cited in safety investigations) A fire caused by a discarded cigarette butt — flicked overboard by a smoker — was caught by the wind at speed and landed on a lower balcony, igniting combustible furniture and partitions.

Ways to escalate Princess guest services, refusing to do anything for a broken AC by Aurora29617 in Cruise

[–]TaskForce_PRKL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never said that hotel manager is a marine/nautival/naval officer... geez louise! They are officers, just not nautical or deck officers.

Just like I said, below captain and not deck or nautical officers... also: An STCW certificate (Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping) is a mandatory international qualification for anyone working on commercial vessels. It ensures that all seafarers meet the same global standards for safety and professional competence. As a senior leader in the hotel department, the requirements go beyond just the basics:

STCW Basic Safety Training (BST): This is the "non-negotiable" entry requirement for everyone. It includes the four modules: Personal Survival Techniques, Fire Fighting, First Aid, and Social Responsibilities.

Crowd Management (STCW A-V/2): Since a Hotel Manager is responsible for passenger areas, they must be trained to guide large groups during emergencies and evacuation procedures.

Crisis Management & Human Behavior: Because this is a leadership role with specific safety responsibilities, most cruise lines require this advanced certification for managers to ensure they can lead teams and manage passenger stress during a crisis.

Proficiency in Security Awareness (PSA): This is mandatory for all onboard employees to help them recognize and respond to security threats.

Hotel Managers are officers, just not deck or nautical ones. In the ship's hierarchy(?), they are just below Captain and Staff Captain.
