their cabins.0:13On October twenty-eight, we reported that the company had suspended the Odyssey's0:16operations in Cambodia and ordered residents ashore.0:19Some residents sold their homes to buy cabins and expected to live aboard for years.0:23Now they face temporary housing and travel costs.0:25Can the company find enough money to restore their homes at sea and protect what0:29they paid?0:29The Odyssey carried two hundred and three passengers from fifteen nationalities,0:33mostly Americans, and one hundred and fifty six crew members.0:36It remained at Sihanockville Autonomous Port on Wednesday, when its itinerary had0:40called for sailing onward to Vietnam.0:42Some passengers have already flown out of Cambodia.0:44The earlier itinerary stretched through November20207 .0:48That future now depends on rescuing the business.0:50Chief Executive Mikhail Peterson described his Chapter11 intention in a telephone0:54interview on Wednesday, October twenty-eight.0:57Chapter11 is the US.0:58Bankruptcy process companies used to reorganize their debts.1:01Peterson says the business ran out of money while searching for a financial partner.1:05A bankruptcy petition hasn't been confirmed.1:07The company had already announced a sixty-day search for fresh financing and warned1:11that success wasn't assured.1:13Villa V said on October twenty-seven that it hadn't finalized financing or a1:17transaction.1:17Petterson's description of the cash shortage now reaches beyond fuel bills.1:21He says the company borrowed money and pushed its payroll commitments as far as it1:25could while trying to keep operating.1:26Petterson said, We've borrowed money, we've stretched our payrolls as far as we can,1:31and we're at a point where it's just at a breaking point where we need1:33capitalization.1:35He put monthly expenses at four hundred dollars zero before the increase and two1:39dollars million afterward.1:40He asked where the company could find the one point six dollars million difference.1:43He didn't explain which expenses those totals cover.1:46They're management's figures, and they don't give residents a complete picture of1:49the company's finances.1:51Peterson says fuel averaged about seven hundred dollars per ton before the Iran War1:56began in late February.1:57Afterward, he says it cost two dollars, zero to three dollars, zero per ton.2:02He put the ship's monthly consumption at seven hundred to eight hundred tons.2:05Villa V also estimates its equivalent monthly fuel expense per cabin rose from about2:10one dollar eight hundred to six dollars zero to eight dollars zero in parts of Asia.2:14Those figures describe the company's allocation of operating costs.2:17The company says passing the full increase to residents wasn't realistic.2:21Management slowed the itinerary and kept the ship in each port for five or six days2:25to save fuel.2:26Peterson says they hoped conditions in the Middle East would improve.2:30Those savings, he says, couldn't keep pace with the higher costs.2:33Resident Randy Cassingham sees a broader failure.2:36He describes a cascade involving the business model, management mistakes, and fuel2:40cost and availability.2:41That's his assessment of why the venture struggled.2:43He also challenges management's account of the help residents are receiving ashore.2:47Peterson says, Villa V is covering lodging and local transportation, but isn't2:51funding passengers' departure from Cambodia.2:53Cassingham disputes that residents are being helped.2:56It isn't clear whether support differs between passengers or whether promised help3:00simply hasn't reached them.3:01Residents who want to leave must arrange their own international travel under the3:04policy Petterson describes.3:06Retired passenger Benjamin Schatz says he was given only hours on Wednesday to pack3:10and leave.3:10He says some residents are homeless, have very little money, and don't know what3:14they'll do.3:15Schatz's account describes his own departure.3:17Cassingham had described an earlier notice shortly after seven on Monday morning,3:21requiring disembarkation by two that afternoon.3:24That instruction preceded Tuesday's public suspension announcement.3:27Residents describe different notice and departure times.3:30The money at risk also differs from cabin to cabin.3:33At launch, purchases could cost several hundred thousand dollars.3:37With a minimum fifteen-year residency guarantee described, Carol Larson describes3:41her arrangement as an option to live aboard for up to fifteen years.3:44Individual agreements determine what each resident bought.3:47Larson, who's sixty-nine, says she paid one hundred and twenty dollars, zero in3:51installments, plus monthly maintenance fees.3:53She lived aboard for eighteen months with her sister, Crystal Lavering, who's3:56seventy-two.3:57Larson says living at sea improved her health, and she still doesn't regret4:01participating.4:02She knew a startup carried risk.4:04Other residents now need answers about refunds.4:06Continuing charges and access to their cabins.4:08Villa V hasn't explained a policy covering everyone's contracts.4:12Earlier, resident Pamela Recamp recalled a request to help raise one dollar million4:15to leave Halong Bay.4:16How much residents raise remains unclear.4:19Cambodian officials expect refuelling and a possible departure on Saturday,4:22October31 .4:24That sailing is tentative.4:25Crew are described as remaining aboard to maintain essential systems.4:28A ship movement would still leave the residential voyage dependent on financing and4:32arrangements for passengers.4:33Villa V has named its intended legal route, but hasn't announced a completed4:37financial rescue.4:38Residents still have no confirmed return date.4:41Management describes temporary local support while leaving passengers to pay for4:45travel out of Cambodia.阅读文章事件时间线HeyDex谁报道了什么多家媒体报道的要点≠Suspension of the Odyssey’s operations说法相互矛盾 · 13 家媒体✓Fuel costs and operating losses behind suspension已独立证实 · 14 家媒体Passengers left in Cambodia12
