Keep your ticket

Most cruise ship tickets contain important provisions regarding the handling of potential disputes and claims. These provisions are enforceable and will affect any personal injury claim made against a cruise ship operator. It is extremely important that you keep your ticket.

If you have suffered injuries on a cruise ship, call an attorney with experience in cruise ship injury lawsuits, find your ticket, and bring it to the attorney.

Most cruise tickets contain provisions mandating that any disputes or litigation must be heard in Florida. By purchasing the ticket and going on the cruise, the passenger tacitly accepts this condition.

Another important provision stipulates deadlines for an injured passenger to provide a notice of injury to the cruise line. Many tickets require that notice be given within 6 months of the injury and the formal lawsuit be filed within one year of the incident.
