A Minnesota couple's free cruise with Norwegian Cruise Line turned costly after one member sought flu treatment on board. Mike Cameron received a $47,000 medical bill after three days in the ship's medical center. Norwegian charged the couple's credit cards, maxing them out. They now owe $21,000 and face potential bankruptcy. The couple claims they received inadequate care and were charged for services not rendered. Norwegian defended the bill, stating it is comparable to other cruise lines. The couple's travel insurance is unwilling to cover the costs until they consult their health insurance, which also refuses to pay due to the treatment being abroad.
