I agree, more earlier would have probably prevented the need for the offer to be this generous - but all's well that ends well. The passengers are happy(or happier) and the PR is going to be better. I wonder how this affects the passengers boarding in Rio though - they arrived a day late to Rio, correct? How is Cunard handling them? And will the ship be able to maintain its itineraries with one pod inoperative? The plot thickens!
