Does anybody know what a "Code Alpha" is?

[MSN-Travelers]

I remember years ago (2005ish) that someone posted a link to a website. The website was something that tracked all the happenings of the cruise ships in the industry. So if there was a noro outbreak it would be posted, fire, etc. I know it probably wouldn't post the codes... But does anyone know what I'm talking about and/or have the link again? I can't remember who ran it either.

That would be Cruise Law News - http://www.cruiselawnews.com/

 

If this site was my sole source of information I looked at, I would never get on a cruise ship. This guy would have you believe that sky diving with a military surplus chute packed by a two-year-old and no reserve was safer than getting on a cruise ship. :eek:

If you are a blood donor take along your card to show your blood group.

 

I have been on a ship where blood was urgently needed ... I have O Neg blood type (universal donor) but did not have my blood donor card. In this instance, thankfully, quite a few passengers responded and the situation ceased to be an emergency.
