A Florida woman say she was injured when she slipped on hand sanitizer during her cruise.
Cynthia Stieber filed her complaint in federal court against Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
According to the complaint, Stieber was a passenger on Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Seas on August 14, 2023.
She says she slipped on hand sanitizer during a cruise and sustained injuries when a crew member was dispensing hand sanitizer to passengers entering the dining room. There was no mat or tray to catch excess sanitizer, which spilled onto the floor causing it to become slippery.
Stieber alleges there were no warning signs or non-slip mats in place that could have prevented her fall. She further claims that she followed the directions of the defendant's employee and slipped on the clear and very slippery liquid.
She seeks compensatory damages.
