omah1975 Posted May 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 13, 2017 About time too, although I do think that they should have added the time he managed to avoid jail onto his sentence. Regardless of that, 16 years for what he did is nowhere near long enough in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanmarcosman Posted May 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2017 The coward who jumped on the roof of a lifeboat to " lead the evacuation from the shore" has 16 years to think about his life and the damage he inflicted on so many. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedySal Posted June 4, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 4, 2017 A little bit of justice finally but now, methinks, we will ALL pay the price in higher cruise prices. Have already noticed quite a hike in the basic price and, from April 2018, looks like Costa are rejigging things by changing the cabin categories etc. Anyone else dismayed at the sudden steep increases?

NancyJewel92 Posted January 13, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) On this sixth anniversary, reflecting on such an avoidable calamity, his sentence seems light. He was the captain of my 1/2011 sailing aboard the Costa Atlantica. There was a noticeable difference in ship operations on that trip as compared to sailings with other captains. The other captains ran much "tighter" operations. Edited January 13, 2018 by NancyJewel92 Fix typo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancer Bob Posted January 14, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 14, 2018 At least he got a jail sentence, I wonder what kind of cover-up there would have been if the ship had been registered in Panama or Liberia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
