Accidents in Asia’s Ports & Locations

For many cruisers, going to Asia is the trip of a lifetime. Several major cruise lines operate in Asia, including Oceania, Viking, Crystal Cruises, Celebrity Cruises, Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean, and Holland America. Whether you cruise across the Pacific Ocean or fly to Asia, Europe, or even South Africa to start your cruise, it is important to be aware of the risks involved. It is also important to know what to do in the event of an accident. Cruising presents risks for passengers and crewmembers alike, and when you are thousands of miles from home, it is critical that you are able to get the help you need when you need it.

What Rights to Compensation Do Cruise Ship Crew Have When Working Abroad?

The Merchant Mariner Act (Jones Act) covers workers’ compensation laws that apply to crewman and other maritime workers while they are traveling to Asia or in Asian waters. This area of the law can be complicated, however, and you should speak to an attorney with us about your case.

Will I Need to Return to Asia in Order to Get Compensation?

The vast majority of injury cases that occur on a vessel while in Asia are covered by U.S. maritime laws which wouldn’t require that you return. A maritime lawyer with us may be able to help you get the compensation you need for all damages. We offer a free case evaluation and work on a contingency basis so there is no risk to you if we take on your case.
