NASSAU, Bahamas, Wednesday reservations travel agents January 15, 2014 – Florida-based maritime lawyer Jim Walker believes that Nassau may be “one gunshot away” from seeing cruise lines drop it from their cruising itineraries.
Walker, reservations travel agents partner at Walker O’Neil, a Miami law firm that represents passengers and crew members injured or assaulted on cruise ships around the world, said he saw The Bahamas progressing along a path which led, in the case of countries like Colombia, to cruise lines pulling out of the destination.
“We’ve seen a pattern of conduct with the cruise lines where they had extensive conversations with the authorities in the United States Virgin Islands, they complained about crime and when they didn’t get answers, they left,” he said.
Walker, an attorney for 30 years who has appeared frequently on US media outlets speaking on the topic of cruise safety, noted that his line of work saw him receive calls from aggrieved cruise passengers who were seeking redress over crimes they fell victim reservations travel agents to.
“We don’t receive calls from any passengers sailing into Alaska, Canada or Europe, except some from passengers pickpocketed in Naples or Rome, Italy, but as far as dividing the planet up into zones, almost 100 percent of calls relative to crime off the ship are coming reservations travel agents from passengers who were in the Caribbean and that would include the most dangerous ports we’re aware of based on calls and volume of ports, such as Nassau, St Thomas, and Roatan, Honduras; but Nassau calls are the majority of the calls.
reservations travel agents I hope the Dominican authority take time to read this please lets start having more road blocks with checks for guns and masks, at one point in ST Thomas we used to have seven ships in port in one day now if it have two on one day we are lucky.
