On our recent cruise, we spent the last day with a non-functioning, overflowing toilet. Apparently about 200 cabins on the Caribbean Princess were affected. This was my 11th cruise, but the first time I had experienced such problems. It was blamed on people flushing inappropriate items, namely masks. I'm wondering is this a common occurrence? Have I just been lucky up til now? My husband is somewhat reluctant to book another cruise after this, so I thought I would try to find out just how common plumbing problems are. Also are some ships more prone to plumbing issues?
