It wasn’t a smooth sailing for passengers on a recent cruise from Galveston, Texas.
The Carnival Cruise Line banned 24 people from future sailing trips after a massive brawl broke out at the ship’s terminal while docking.
A Carnival Cruise spokesperson said the incident occurred in a deck-humiliated area under the authority of the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol.
“Looks strange” deep sea fish are washed away on the beach, and amazing locals: “I don’t think I’ll run.”
“The issue has been handed over to law enforcement,” the spokesman said in a statement.
“On the other hand, we do not tolerate such behavior. 24 people are on our Do Not Sail list.”

Travelmation president and founder Adam Duckworth told Fox News Digital that passengers should respect themselves and fellow travelers throughout the cruise.
“Cruising is a great way to create unforgettable memories with your family and friends,” he said. “Don’t ruin it with disorderly acts.”
Duckworth added, “One of the top mistakes that see people making on cruises is to induce excessively, especially with alcohol.”

“This can often lead to unruly behaviors and actions that you may regret later,” he said.
“Just because you’re on vacation, it doesn’t give you a pass to get you out of control. You either need to be responsible for yourself, or anything in life will have the same effect.”

Stewart Chillon, a Miami-based cruise industry expert known as the “Cruise Guy,” agreed to Fox News Digital that action on board is a major issue to monitor, and shared four other reasons why passengers are banned from the cruise.
Four more top issues
Smuggling of controlled substances and weapons onboard cruises is a remarkable concern.
“Cruise Lines have individual codes of conduct and a list of prohibited items,” Chillon said.
“A passenger (required) to confirm the passenger contract.”
“Cruise lines need to follow the laws of the country they live in, as well as the different countries and ports they visit.”
He added, “It is important for cruise passengers to review their carrier contracts and ensure that what they bring is in violation of rules and laws.”

Another issue is “disregarding the safety measures of the ship, which puts your life and others at risk,” Chillon said.
He also said bad behavior on the coast as well as on board the ship could be a problem.

Finally, he said that chronic complaints could potentially land people on a banned list.
“There are people who go out on the cruise and complain about everything to receive some kind of credit or benefits,” Chillon said.

“These types of people are prohibited,” he said.
