Awareness for travelers on how to avoid ferry accidents visiting Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, and Capri. The emergency response in Sorrento (Police, Italian Coast Guard, Ambulance, Fire Department) was inefficient and unprofessional. On April 30, 2024, around 18:40 local time in Positano, Italy, we boarded the Position Jet Ferry from Position to Sorrento. About 100 passengers were on board, including families with children. The people onboard were from the USA, Canada, the UK, and Italy. Since we started the trip from Position, the driver has been speeding and playing with the ferry, going left to right. Around 19:00 local time, the driver of the ferry lost control of the boat, and the boat went sideways and started to sink for about 40 seconds. The lifejackets were not available. Water came into the ship, and a lot of people got hurt, traumatized, and panicked because the ship was not going to reach a floating point until a miracle happened that put us in a position to be normal. People around the world have to be aware of the tragedy and trauma that we experienced that day on the Mediterranean Sea-Gulf of Naples. Since the accident on April 30, 2024, we have never been contacted by any authorities from Sorrento, Italy, to provide us with an incident report number. The only way to create awareness is via YouTube and social media.
