All that money spent on a cruise and they get this:
U.S. Navy Seahawk helicopters were ferrying supplies including Spam, crab meat, croissants and Pop Tarts to the ship from the USS Ronald Reagan

Actually it is not all that bad.

1. The passengers are being fully reimbursed for this trip
2. The passengers are getting a free cruise for the future.

I hope the US. Navy and coast guard are getting reimbursed for the food it sent too. I know these people are stranded, but it's the lines fault, even though it was an accident.

Oh I bet the cruise line will be paying out their ears for this. They flag their ships in some little banana republic to avoid paying taxes and guess what happens... a rescue by the Coast Guard, what would have been paid for partly by your tax dollars now has to be paid for in full out of your wallet. :haha:
