Holiday Giant Thomson Facing Legal Action From Almost 100 ‘Sick’ Cruise Ship Passengers
By Chris Hewett of mirror.co.uk
Holiday giant Thomson could be sued by almost 100 holidaymakers who claim they suffered severe sickness and diarrhoea on a luxury Mediterranean cruise ship.
Legal action has been lodged by dozens of passengers travelling on different Island Escape trips over a nine-month period.
They include a honeymoon couple, a man celebrating his 60th birthday and a couple marking their tenth anniversary who all claim their breaks were ruined.
Passengers complained of suffering “severe gastric illness symptoms” after being served “reheated and undercooked food”.
Amandeep Dhillon, a partner at Irwin Mitchell representing the group, said: “The large number of people who have instructed us to investigate their complaints about this cruise ship is very worrying.
