American Passengers and Their Absurd Bans on Foreign Languages on Cruises

Cruifan

Some cruise passengers genuinely believe their vacation receipt gives them the right to ban foreign languages. In this video, expect bizarre stories of guests trying to rewrite maritime law just to avoid hearing an accent. From demanding English-only lifeboats to arguing with a bilingual elevator, these incidents show exactly how people panic when they lose their linguistic control on a ship. These stories are based on real events reported by crew members, though all names and identifying details have been changed for privacy.

It truly baffles me; these people who pay thousands of dollars to go on a beautiful cruise, but then never leave their cabins! 🤦‍♀️😂

You can speak any language at casino but not poker table. But poker is more relaxed now.

On my first cruise, the ship offered a tour of the galley (kitchen). There were these two incredibly entitled Argentinian old women, loudly saying - I can speak Spanish - that conducting shipboard activities in English was an unpardonable insult to Spanish-speaking guests. It can also occur in the air. There was this case in the news, not so long ago, about an ignorant woman who reported the man seating next to her, who was solving a differential equation, for having a text she thought was arabic. In my last cruise, I was faced with people who spoke Italian, Slovene, Serbocroatian, Greek, and Turkish. I wonder what the people mentioned in the video would do in this case.

The trivia lady should've realized she had the same amount of time to figure out the answer.

When I go on a cruise, I focus on enjoying the cruise while not interfearing with the enjoyment of the other passengers! I, actually, enjoy the change of scene and am glad I don't have any real decisions to make! Of course, I have very little control over my life at home. On a cruise and at home, I do have a large amount of control over my mood, outlook and level of enjoyment.

No, Arthur, is not of the MAGA mindset he is a typical American, who believes that they are always right and the rest of the world need to catch up and keep pace with America. They were around in the 60' telling us how to be soldiers etc, long before the MEGA movement and a great many were Democrats and Republicans.
