Elderly passengers sue Princess Cruise Lines for more than $1 million after being stuck on coronavirus-stricken ship near San Francisco

The lawsuit from the Kurivials is — word for word, aside from names and residences — the same as the one filed on March 9, who were also on the Grand Princess as it floated in limbo off the coast of San Francisco. Both were filed by Chalik and fellow attorney Michael Simmrin.

Because 62 passengers on the Grand Princess for the Kurivials' trip were aboard the prior sailing, the ship turned around instead of sailing toward Mexico as planned with its 2,422 passengers and 1,111 crew members. But the ship, with the US Coast Guard flying tests out to the boat via helicopter last Thursday. Passengers were allowed to roam on the ship until the tests came back Friday with 21 positive results, leading the cruise line to ask passengers to stay in their rooms.

"Not one passenger was questioned, let alone examined in any capacity," the lawsuit read. "Incredibly, not one of those sixty two passengers or crew members who were mixing and mingling with the infected prior passengers were ever examined during the instant voyage until being tested for the virus on Thursday March 5, 2020, two weeks after the ship sailed."
