Kind of a morbid topic but with this news story it made me think about this subject. Many people on here have been cruising many more years than me and on various other cruise lines so they may have even been on a cruise when someone has passed? Do they keep the body on board till the cruise is over or do they helo it out right away? Also, if they do keep the body onboard, do they put it in the same freezer they keep our food? Do they have to turn around and go back to port? I can't imagine there's just a ton of empty freezers with the limited space on cruise ships. I apologize in advance if this is an unsettling question to ask the hive but with millions of people cruising, I would not be surprised if this kind of scenario did not happen again, so just wondering what happens when there are passengers on board and not just crew.
