The men, described to be on a "wild work bender", allegedly overran pool decks, bars and other sections of the cruise ship
NEW DELHI: A dream cruise in Australia fell to pieces for a group of passengers last month after their ship was "taken over" by more than a thousand men from an Indian tobacco company, who proceeded to enjoy wild parties with Playboy bunnies and crate-loads of food.
Some 1,300 workers of the tobacco company joined the cruise on the Voyager of the Seas, operated by Royal Caribbean International, just before the ship left Sydney. And went on to "hijack" the luxury cruise.
It rapidly went downhill for the rest of the passengers, according to Australian website 9News. So bad in fact, that Royal Caribbean International had to hand out apologies and refunds to "distraught passengers", the site said.
The men, described to be on a "wild work bender", allegedly overran pool decks, bars and other sections of the cruise ship. They constituted over a third of the ship's 3,000-odd passengers.
