Norwegian Sun Update Panama Canal Construction Cruise A Holiday Ruined for 2000 Passengers  Norwegian cruise lines has not apologized to the 2000 passengers that were exposed to Hazardous chemicals on their 15 day Panama Canal cruise taken in March 2018.  A full gang of construction workers started tearing apart the cruise ship's decks with jack hammers and chemical solvents on the second day of the cruise once the ship had left US waters.  Paint thinners, glues, adhesives all of which were labelled as dangerous to health especially to expectant mothers were used for 15 days and the odours, construction dust and other toxic elements entered the ship's ventilation systems.  Passengers had trouble breathing while onboard and have had bleeding noses and coughs to deal with since the cruise ended.  A number of passengers have had to visit their doctors for tests.  Norwegian has offered a 25% discount on a future cruise as their compensation offer and it has been rejected as inadequate by the passengers.  Legal action is now being considered by a number of former passengers as laws of the seas may have been broken.  All construction materials and waste were dumped in Encinitis Mexico a few hours before the ship was to re-enter US territorial waters and the port in Los Angeles.  More updates will follow.
