A furious holidaymaker has blasted the cruise line that turned a dream vacation into a holiday from hell after he was airlifted from the ship against his wishes.
Stephen Cassidy was left stranded 800 miles from home after being removed from the luxury cruise which he had booked as a joint birthday celebration with his wife, Carol.
He was flown by the coastguard to a hospital on Shetland, despite telling medics it was unnecessary, after a misdiagnosis by the ship’s doctor.
