Oh Really? Surely they would have a bit of advance warning about a Volcano eruption and not dock there?

Its a live volcano, and they still do trips, same with Mount Etna I believe? just bad luck, though I would say after this all trips to live volcanos should be banned...

Some of those involved are believed to be from Ovation of the Seas, a Royal Caribbean International cruise ship.
Officers are hoping to locate the people who are unaccounted for through the cruise ship's passenger list. So far, there has been no contact with any of those who were missing.

Having been to many volcano, litterally seeing the explode from the mountain where I camped and another looking into it and see the lava it weird to say but in no moment have i ever felt in danger. its just not expected.

Although im in japan later this month and i am a bit scared of the earthquakes
