The daughter of an elderly woman who died on a remote Australian island after being left behind by her cruise ship has accused the operator of “failure of care and common sense”.
Eighty-year-old Suzanne Rees was taking part in a 60-day cruise around Australia and was on the second day of the trip when she disembarked along with some other passengers at Lizard Island on the Great Barrier Reef to hike up the island’s highest peak.
