Crystal Cruise Ship Accident Lawyers

Know Your Rights As a Cruise Ship Passenger

For 24 years, Crystal Cruises has won the distinction of being voted the Best Midsize Cruise Line by readers of Conde Nast Traveler. While Crystal Cruise line has received positive ratings, not every traveler or crew member has had a good experience. Illness, injuries and even fatalities may occur aboard Crystal ships. When this occurs, victims must understand their rights and legal options for pursuing damage claims.

Cruise passengers are entitled to certain rights and protections under maritime law, which can include the right to safe passage, timely medical care, and adequate accommodations. Additionally, passengers may have recourse through specific international regulations and the terms outlined in their cruise contracts. It is important for travelers to be aware of these rights and seek legal counsel if they believe their rights have been violated or if they have suffered harm during their voyage.

Cases Against Crystal Cruises

Crystal Cruises is among the numerous cruise line companies. Cases against Crystal Cruises handled by our attorney include Greenway Paulraj v. Crystal Cruises, Inc., among others.

It is important to note that every cruise ship injury or accident case is different. Many are complicated because the incident occurs at sea and it can be difficult to report the problem or obtain evidence to make a case for damages. Still, our attorneys understand how to provide representation against cruise lines no matter where the cruise line is based or where the incident causing injury occurred. If you are an injured crew member or passenger and you believe you have a case against Crystal Cruises, give us a call today so we can begin investigating and help you make your claim.

A Closer Look at Crystal Cruises’ Fleet

Crystal Cruises operates several ships including:

  • Crystal Serenity
  • Crystal Symphony
  • Crystal Espirit

Crystal ships are all-inclusive and visit destinations including Africa, Alaska, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean, Hawaii, the South Pacific and Europe, among other locations. Crystal is also planning on introducing four new ships into its fleet, including the Crystal Endeavor in 2018, as well as three new polar ice class ships in 2019 and in future dates to be determined. The Crystal Endeavor is a polar class ship with an estimated gross tonnage expected at 25,000 GT. The other three ships to be introduced will be 100,000 GT, which is larger than Crystal’s current ships that range from 3,370 GT to 68,870 GT.

While Crystal Cruises is supposed to make sure all of its fleet at every size is safe, sometimes the cruise line fails to exercise reasonable care in protecting passengers and crew. When this happens and injuries occur, victims may make damage claims.
