Tour boats and cruise boat operators owe their passengers a duty of reasonable care under the circumstances to protect the passengers from injury. The reality is that this is a heightened duty of care; most cruise passengers are unfamiliar with shipboard life and equipment. Accidents can easily and quickly happen aboard a ship or small tour boat. A slippery, wet or icy deck, loose carpet, unsafe gangways, defective or broken equipment can quickly lead to a life long injury. The vessel operators must be particularly careful to protect their elderly passengers form injury.

If you have been injured on a cruise to Alaska, you should immediately contact a qualified maritime injury lawyer to learn about your rights. Cruise ship and tour boat tickets frequently contain a contractual statute of limitation clause, setting the date by which a claim must be formally served and filed in Court. The ticket may also dictate the location where the lawsuit must be filed.
