I am not sure how anyone in their right mind thought these outfits were appropriate -- let alone, that they looked like "upside-down snow cones," which is apparently what they were going for.
This was a Christmas-themed event put on last month by P&O Cruises Australia.
The cruise company says the housekeeping crew had no idea what they looked like when they chose to dress up as 'upside down snow cones' for the event during a Pacific Explorer voyage from Melbourne to Hobart in December.
'We regret if a recent incident on a Pacific Explorer cruise offended any guests,' a P&O Cruises Australia spokesperson told news.com.au.
'Several crew members dressed up as snow cones for a Christmas family event, not understanding how their costumes could be misconstrued.'
The reactions:
The company says the crew were only in public view for a short period of time. They also note that the crew come from all across the globe and are not familiar with the KKK.
Though I'm sure they are now!
