History

Historical Context

On 13 January 2012 the Costa Concordia capsized off Isola del Giglio, killing 32 people and prompting Italy and Lloyd’s Register to tighten cruise-ship inspections and safety protocols. Those reforms shaped industry standards that now guide Disney Cruise Line’s decision in May 2026 to suspend the Disney Adventure’s Singapore itinerary and offer refunds and alternative accommodations.
