Costa Crociere SpA Chairman Pier Luigi Foschi said Francesco Schettino, captain of the Costa Concordia vessel that ran aground off the coast of Italy last week, didn’t tell the Carnival Corp. unit the truth.
“Normally, we evaluate the situation and if necessary we can give advice,” Foschi said in an interview with Italian state television channel Rai late yesterday. “This time we didn’t get to give advice because what the captain said in his 22:05 conversation didn’t correspond to the truth.”
