[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1097261, member: 211504"] I would agree and in terms of a court case, there's little chance of it getting anywhere. I did find a few similar past rulings here in the U.S. where non-US citizens had challenged to be covered under the ADA. Even in those cases (which were more cut and dry) the results were unfavorable. I should have been more specific in calling it a "Gray area" as I was specifically referring to some of the wording within the ADA which discusses situations where the act would not apply in situations where the situation could become dangerous (one could argue a cruise ship being one of them) or the situation would cause a substantial "undue hardship." It would be difficult to explain to 2000 passengers that the cruise ship needed to be turned around because a crew member had a severe hypo and needed medical treatment. [/QUOTE]
