An Endless Vacation In Venice

Now we will share one interesting news from Venice. There is an information that Italian authorities kept a German cruise ship and its crew of 221 members for over a month, because of 850 000 pounds depth of unpaid wages. Delphin Group – this is the name of the company that owns the ship. The reason for 221 unpaid salaries of the crew members is that the company field for bankruptcy month ago this situation happened.
The Delphin cruise ship docked in Venice on 16th of October. The 500 passengers quit the vessel, but the crew remained on board. Members of the crew are mostly Germans, Ukrainians and Filipinos. Hence, some of them are not citizens of Europe Union and do not have visas they need to step on Italian land. On the other hand even they had the opportunity doing that, they could lose their chance to be paid out if they left the ship.
The solution of this problem is not cleared. But we hope that Venetian authorities will know soon how to solve it.
