A Florida mom who uprooted her entire life for a luxurious, three-year cruise around the world was allegedly banned by the ship’s owner after her private messages with gripes about the voyage were leaked and were “impacting community morale.” NY Post reporter Taylor Knight shares this story.
Jenny Phenix, 68, reportedly took umbrage with multiple alleged issues on the ship — like an apparent four-month delay to even set sail — in WhatsApp messages that eventually made their way to the vessel’s owner.
“During the past year and a half I have liquidated businesses and possessions, eagerly awaiting my new life cruising the world,” Phenix told the Telegraph last week.
The divorced mother of two had been “living out of a suitcase” since December as she waited to board the Villa Vie Odyssey’s maiden voyage.
However, more problems were discovered on the Villa Vie Odyssey while dry docked, which further delayed its voyage.
The ship’s certifications expired as it sat idle for four years during the COVID-19 pandemic, forcing the owners of the ship to start all over again, according to the Telegraph.
The ongoing delays left Phenix and other passengers waiting to set sail for nearly four months.
