Let's book you a cruise on an Italian cruise ship

Another Italian cruise ship is adrift without power in the pirate-infested Indian Ocean. This is the Costa Allegra, a sister ship from the same line as the Costa Concordia.

Costa makes a new offer

Uninjured passengers will receive $14,460 in compensation for "lost baggage and psychological trauma after their cruise ship ran aground and capsized..." That's better than 30 percent off on your next cruize which you are not going to take anyway. This offer does not apply to crew members, or passengers who were injured or the families of those who were killed.

STOP THE PRESSES: Get 30 percent off on your next cruises

The owner of the Costa Concordia, the cruise ship that sunk, are offering survivors of the disaster a 30 percent discount off future cruises. Why, sure, let's all sign up. We had such fun on the Costa Concordia. I guess the same captain will be in command?

What an insult! But its also a bribe if they drop their lawsuits.

Oops, I just fell into the lifeboat

The Captain of Costa Concordia just fell into that lifeboat during the chaos.

It's a new age of equality, right?

Mail Online: Nicole Servel, 61, recounts the story that her husband, Francis Servel, 71, gave her his lifejacket before they jumped from the sinking cruise ship, saving her life. She swam to safety, he went under and disappeared. The article has more stories from other survivors of the last minutes of the Costa Concordia. Unlike the Titanic, it was not women and children first. Men pushed to the lifeboats to save themselves.

Nothing like it since the Titanic, almost 100 years ago

More horror stories are emerging from the cruise liner Costa Concordia. The passengers attempted to abandon the ship in an atmosphere of panic and chaos.
