Costa Cruises, part of Carnival Corporation, is advising passengers against taking buffet food to their cabins, threatening fines if they do. The cruise line aims to enforce hygienic practices, citing safety and well-being as their priority.
On specific sailings, the company has shared onboard communication as a preventive measure, encouraging guests to adhere to existing policies. Only room service staff trained in sanitation are allowed to deliver food to guest cabins.
The policy insists that all food must be consumed in designated dining areas. Reactions have varied on social media, with some passengers supporting the move as a means to maintain cleanliness, while others oppose it, preferring the flexibility to enjoy meals in their rooms.
Based in Genoa, Italy, Costa Cruises offers trips through the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and South America. Some passengers argue that cruise lines should not implement additional fees, pointing out that they enjoy consuming coffee and meals on their balconies.
