Cruise ship changes
Royal Caribbean International's former 'Majesty of the Seas' arrived in Piraeus on Feb 1, 2021, with the vessel having been sold from Royal Caribbean International to an undisclosed owner in December 2020. The ship was spotted at a pier next to the former 'Costa Neoromantica', now belonging to Celestyal Cruises as the 'Expercience', and nearby the former 'Pacific Aria', which was sold to Seajets. Since leaving the Royal Caribbean fleet, the vessel has seen its name shortened to 'Majesty', and is officially owned by Saturn Oceanway Inc. with Campbell Cruise & Yacht Management Ltd. listed as the vessel manager. Meanwhile, the 'Empress of the Seas' was sold from Royal Caribbean International to a new Indian cruise start up, and data lists Campbell Cruise & Yacht Management Ltd. as the ship's manager.
Protest agains repatriation policy
On May 15 crew members of the 'Majesty of the Seas' were protesting protested Royal Caribbean’s latest failure to follow through with its repatriation of its crew members. Several hundred crew members congregated on the pool deck making signs protesting Royal Caribbean’s refusal to follow through with plans to send the crew members home. The repatriation plans have been changed at the last minute on five occasions, including three times dating back to last month. The crew members chanted “send us home” and erected signs saying “Do You Sleep Well Mr. Bayley” referring to the CEO of Royal Caribbean International Michael Bayley who was quoted earlier by the Miami Herald stating that flying crew members home via private charters was “too expensive.” Mr. Bayley collected around $25,000,000 in compensation in the last four years. A second sign stated “How Many More Suicides Do You Need?” This sign was created in reference to the Death of a Polish engineer who apparently jumped overboard from the Jewel of the Seas and the recent death of a Chinese assistant waiter who died on the 'Mariner of the Seas' earlier this week.

The "Majesty of the Seas" took an unexpected detour to rescue seven Cuban migrants after their small boat broke down 66 miles southwest of Key West, near Cuba, on Sep 15, 2019. The captain said they had seen some small boat and they were going to investigate and rescue those people. Hundreds of people were watching the rescue. His wife watched from their room. A small boat from the cruise ship raced out to tow the migrants' craft to safety. The rescue took about an hour. The seven migrants were repatriated back to Cuba on Sep 18.
