They’re still restless aboard the Queen Mary 2. BBC News has solicited feedback (scroll to bottom) from cruisers aboard the ship and others affected by the QM2’s problems, and at least one respondent has quite the inflated sense of the enormity of their plight.

Julian Abbiati, who was supposed to meet his friends from the ship during the scheduled stop in St. Kitts, writes, “The people on the vessel including my good friends should look to history and the likes of the late Rosa Parks and stand their ground for a full refund and nothing less!” Ah, yes. Demanding a full refund on a luxury cruise is just like sparking the civil rights movement.
