US cruise ship -crime at two years high

According to new data from the Ministry of Transport, the reported crimes on the US cruise ships are two years of two years.

In the first quarter of 2025, 48 crimes were reported on board cruise ships.

Almost half were allegations of rape, 10 were sexual assault and seven physical attacks.

The point creates data only for sexual and physical attacks, deaths and missing people and high -quality thefts.

Other crimes such as opportunistic thefts of small objects on board cruise ships are not recorded.

It happens that the capacity and demand for cruise tourism continues to increase.

Last year, the FBI examined 168 cruise ship crimes with rape, sexually and physically most frequently.

Don Gay, FBI officer in the Galveston Cruise Port in Texas, says that alcohol plays a role in about 80% of the alleged crime that was reported to the government.

Galveston, the fourth most cruise port in the USA, recently the headlines after a mass brawl in the terminal building.

Carnival Cruise Line reacted by traveling 24 customers again.

“We will not tolerate such behavior,” said the cruise line.
