There are over 20 seaports in Romania, which makes the European nation one of the busiest in terms of maritime traffic. The country is also a popular destination for cruise travel, with several major cruise lines and river cruise companies calling on ports like Constanta and exploring its waterways yearly. While Romania has attracted visitors from around the world, frequent cruise travel has also contributed to a high volume of maritime accidents throughout the years.
In fact, the biggest maritime tragedy reported on the Danube River took place near Galati, Romania in 1989, when the MS OLTENITA passenger vessel was struck by a Bulgarian convoy and capsized. The collision resulted in the deaths of at least 220 passengers and nine crew members. Sadly, this is just one of several incidents that have occurred in Romanian waters – many of which are the result of cruise operator negligence.
It is important that those who have been injured while aboard a cruise ship or passenger vessel in Romania understand that they have legal options, and can turn to a cruise accident attorney for assistance in filing a case. A lawyer who is well-versed in Romanian maritime law and cruise ship laws can defend a victim’s rights and will fight for the compensation they are rightfully due.
