ABC reports that one passenger said the company asked passengers for help paying for fuel on multiple occasions, with some paying hundreds of thousands of dollars, before they were ordered to disembark. CBS News reports that the company behind a "forever cruise" that stranded more than 200 passengers in Cambodia this week blames rising fuel costs for halting the trip, but documents it obtained show a longer history of financial trouble.
