Passengers who went through the 2017 ‘cruise from hell’ aboard P&O’s Pacific Aria – the ship infamously sailed into the path of a category 5 cyclone from Brisbane – have filed a class action against P&O’s parent company.
Brisbane firm Carter Capner Law filed a suit against Carnival PLC on behalf of the passengers of Pacific Aria in May 2017 for damages and a refund of fares. The action cited the passengers’ disappointment, frustration, discomfort, and distress as basis for claiming damages from P&O, in addition to a refund of the cruise fare paid by each passenger.

“Before departure, a cyclone warning had been issued for Vanuatu as had a forecast that the category 3 cyclone was heading in the direction of Noumea,” said Carter Capner Law director Peter Carter.
