      “There was blood everywhere”. Violent late night brawl in the buffet onboard @pocruises Britannia left staff who intervened injured, as passengers used furniture and plates as weapons. Witnesses told me they were so frightened they had to hide, as family groups fought.

      The violence occurred on the final leg of a week long cruise to Norway’s fjords. I became aware of trouble when officers made an emergency tannoy at 2AM for security staff to rush to the 16th floor restaurant. I went too and found passengers shocked by what they’d seen.

      One witness, part of a group involved in the trouble, explained to staff that things kicked off when another passenger appeared dressed as a clown. This upset one of their party because they’d specifically booked a cruise with no fancy dress. It led to a violent confrontation.

          Britannia left Bergen at 1430 on Thursday, the violence occurred 12 hours later after a black-tie evening. It followed an afternoon of ‘patriotic’ partying on deck, with large amounts of alcohol being consumed by many guests.pic.twitter.com/zQcEXGDJeg

          The buffet area was immediately sealed off as medical teams went to help the injured. Staff told me they’d never experienced anything like it and those behind the violence were confined to a cabin for the last day of the cruise, waiting for police here in Southampton.

          The ship arrived back in its home Port this morning. It will depart on a Mediterranean cruise later today.

          I should clarify this thread relates to guests traveling on @pandocruises based in the UK, not it’s Australian cousin @POCruises. Apologies for any misunderstanding.

          Seems like some of my tweet gets lost in translation as it crosses the Atlantic. In the UK “Fancy Dress” is when you dress up as a character or crazy costume. “Black tie” is when you wear a tuxedo and bow tie, with ladies normally wearing an evening dress. Hope that helps!

          I'll translate from British to American for you: Fancy dress party = costume party.
