The Allure of the Seas

A man has been arrested for drug dealing on what has been billed as the “world’s largest gay cruise”.

Fifty one year old Steven Barry Krumholtz from California was arrested after customs officials found drugs, which they believe were being sold to passengers, in his cabin.

Another passenger who was earlier caught with drugs fingered Krumholtz as his on-board dealer which led to the search of the cabin.

While customs agents waited for Krumholtz to return to the cabin to arrest him, two other passengers knocked on the door requesting drugs.

Ecstasy, ketamine and methamphetamine were found in the room, along with $51,000 in cash.

Set aboard Royal Caribbean International’s recently built Allure of the Seas, one of the two largest cruise liners in the world, the cruise set sail on February 6 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

According to the organisers, Atlantis Events, the ship had nearly 5,400 gay and lesbian guests aboard.
