A British family were forced to take refuge in their cabin after their £8,000 'family-friendly' cruise was ruined by drunken louts who turned the ship into 'Wetherspoons on Sea'.
Iain and Sally Wright, from Sunderland, stumped up thousands for the voyage which 'looked great for kids' and embarked on a two-week trip across Spain on the MSC Cruises Virtuosa on July 12 alongside their two children, Jack, 11, Molly, 8, and their mother-in-law.
But they endured a holiday from hell after they were surrounded by 'an insane level of drunkeness' from rowdy youths, while Molly suffered an allergic reaction after swimming in a pool covered in black soot.
Mr Wright, 41, an author, said they tried to leave the cruise halfway through when in Majorca after they were sheltering in their rooms to avoid the 'horrible' atmosphere of 'constant swearing' and drunkness which was 'worse than a Wetherspoons'.
One inebriated guest even threw up next to the family's table while they were playing Scrabble.
