Does it make a difference to my compensation claim that the incident happened on a cruise ship?
1
Yes and no.
Yes, you can still claim compensation if you were ill or injured on board and it was the fault of either the cruise company or another passenger.
No case is straightforward – for example, the rules that apply can depend on whether you start and finish the cruise from the same port and whether there are any ‘ports of call’ in a different country.
The time limit for bringing your claim is usually two years - but the rules can vary. Talk to one of our experts to make certain you know what rules apply to your situation.
