Criminality rates on board cruises that leave the US. UU. They have reached a maximum of two years, and an expert says that this creates a “dark cloud” for travelers.
According to the data of the Department of Transportation, the accusations of 48 crimes were informed aboard cruise ships from January 1, 2025 until March 30, 2025. Twenty -three incidents violations were reported, 10 were sexual aggressions and seven were assaults, which according to the reports occurred in cruises.
Robert McDonald, former special agent of the Secret Service and Professor of Criminal Justice at New Haven University, said Fox News Digital Crime negatively affects the cruise industry. McDonald has coordinated security for several dignitaries around the world.

“Sometimes, cruise lines do not want to inform this information about the front, depending on, again, what kind of crime is, which gives them unfortunate attention, as it would be that we have plane situations or delays now in Airald.
“All that negative environment and negative information put a dark cloud on the industry, an industry that for men come to it and assault them to feel comfortable spending their money.”

McDonald said that cruises are more prone to crime due to the number of people full in a tight area.
“I think that every time we gathered a large number of people, either in a Super Bowl game or in a game of the World Series or finals or graduations of the NBA or other things, every time we gather people, every time people are the people who bare people who bare their normal personality, I think that exacerbates the ability of numbers to increase that respect,” he said.
“Every time we gather, those numbers will increase, either in a resort, whether on a cruise.”
