A federal lawsuit filed in Miami alleges that a passenger aboard the Carnival Vista was sexually assaulted by a massage therapist in the ship's spa. The incident reportedly occurred on July 5, 2025, during a Caribbean sailing. According to the complaint, the victim was allegedly locked in a massage room by the attendant after the assault took place. The cruise line has stated the spa is managed by a third-party vendor, OneSpaWorld. How should cruise lines ensure better oversight of third-party spa staff to protect passenger safety?
