Is there a morgue onboard?

Ahh, a Viking funeral. And cremation is all the rage nowadays!

On the Dream with had the light show and fireworks! My hat is over my heart!

Drum roll please!!!!!!!! Salty needs to yell the estate is paying for the drinks at the bar to celebrate a life!!!!

One of the things you get to see on the "Behind The Fun" tour is the morgue ! At least we saw it on Conquest.....

Now you all have me thinking. What are the odds I won't make it for the whole cruise? If I'm feeling lucky (depends on your view) I could run up a huge gambling and drinking bill just in case I don't make it. That would be fun!

Ah, my luck it will be a few months after I get bill the paid off, that is if I don't die from shock when I open the statement and see how much fun I had.

my partners grandfather died on a princess cruise ship quite suddenly of a heart attack in the mdr about 8 years ago. she could not remember the name of the of the ship. when we sailed princess last april we did not even mention that it was princess that we sailed on much less the ship it was we did NOT want to know if it was the same one.

Oh, I would definitely yell that. Even though I did not know the deceased, it sounds like a great idea!

"A PARTY" for the dearly departed!

Ah Bobby Mac, put in your will that you want to do one last cruise after you are gone in the beer cooler of casino bar. Hey we will have beer on you and through casino chips on the top of the cooler in your memory! Better than flowers!. Just don't freak us all out as we are celebrating in your memory and reach for the chips much less hand us a beer!

Heck she paid for the cruise they better just take her on the cruise! The cost would be astrinomical to get her home from a port. After all the passengers got off they should have a car pick her up and deal with it from there. :( that would suck.

I hope she had trip insurance! :rolleyes:

Wow!! Carnival really does have the Fun Ships. A tour including the morgue is always guaranteed to get everyone into the vacation mood.

We just got home from our Carnival Inspiration cruise. It was wonderful except a woman down the hall from us died. It was early in the cruise but I wouldn't think they would fly her body home would they?

I was on the same deck a good way from her room down the hall. I didn't know she had passed. Last I'd heard she was in a coma. That is so sad. I feel so badly for her family. The crew was very quiet about it and said it just wasn't as serious as we all thought. I guess they were trying to protect her privacy and also not ruin our cruise.

They have special accomodations for the dearly departed. You can view it here.

 

Hey - if you die before the first non-US port of call, can your estate invoke the Vacation Guarantee? It would be a shame to lose those cruise days just because you die!

Thanks for my morning Chuckle :D Much needed today!

took the behind the scenes tour on the Dream. There is a morgue on the Dream. There is room for 3 bodies.

Oh...we are thinking of doing the behind the scenes tour when we are on the Dream in January! What days are it on?

I once read an article by a person who was employed as a piano player on a cruise ship, and his cabin was next to the morgue. Good place if you ask me... neighbors are usually quiet.

The neighbours don't complain about the piano practice either...:rolleyes:

a freezer- not the freezer. There is no way that they would be allowed to use the food freezer.

he was joking...even I got it!:D

My wife is an RN. On one cruise I suggested that she might get a job in the infirmary on a ship to pay for our cruise. She gave me one of those looks and said "you know this ship has a morgue!"

I hope I pass away doing something I love!

My husband's uncle did. Let's just say it involved the back seat of a car;);)

I want to be locked in the beer cooler. They say you can't take it with you, but I would try :D!

You must be related to my husband!

They usually just throw the body off in the ocean in a bag.

Haha im jk, yeah they have a morge. It on deck 0 someone, most likely near the infirmary.

They put her next to the lobster tails:eek:

He died while being transported by the police?

There is definitely a morgue on all ships. I knew of it, but it was confirmed when I'd taken the BTF tour on the conquest. There was also a jail across from the morgue.

Heck, if I die on a cruise ship, just stick some flowers in my butt and throw me overboard. That would be a very inexpensive funeral.

And then, please find my husband a very sweet but pretty blonde. I wouldn't want him to be lonely. My only requirement is that she's nice to the kids.

Prop me up by the Lido if I die

People die at sea every week.

Yes, there are morgues on board.

On the Legend, they use the urns.

LOL....that made my day!!! Thanks for the laugh.
