That’s all well and good but these people are on a ship where their lodging would have been during the stay and are now having to suddenly arrange transport to shore and to a hotel they have to find for themselves and arrange a hotel stay. They are not familiar with the city and have no idea of how far away a hotel is, where it is located in Singapore.

I get your point, but your post (as understood by more than one of us) implied that the problem was that the people were in Singapore, and not merely a foreign city.

Disney should have taken care of their guests with return flights and accomodations. They can afford it. They could have turned this around with excellent customer service, but no.

Singapore is remarkably easy to travel. It caters to international travelers and everything is accessible by public transportation. My cousin lived there. Pretty much everyone speaks English. The food is boring though and the weather is awful. My Northern European blood doesn’t like the heat. There are worse places to be stranded.
