Cruise Ship Returns to Seattle Following Fire

Summary
The Westerdam which is the name of the cruise ship, were headed to Alaska when the blaze occurred. 2,086 passengers and 798 crew members were onboard. The blaze occurred twice and it took place in the boiler room. The first one and the second one were extinguished by the crew. Nobody was heart, but the cruise ship had to go back to Seattle.

Reaction
These kind of news are dramatized because recently there had been an accident at Korea. The sunken ship Sewol was all over the paper. But think of it this way, by reporting these news people will hold back from going on a cruise trip. This will brutally attack the big business of cruising. People will refrain from using a ship to travel even if it is really safe. The company could say that it is safe, but the Sewol accident represents the lacking of safety so people won’t believe it. Second wave by this Westerdam’s accident could make people not to believe in the safe safe slogans without a doubt. This is only my opinion so it could be a false but you can’t say that no one’s thinking this way.
