A solicitor who claims she was falsely imprisoned while on board a cruise ship has said the experience felt "like being in Guantanamo Bay".

Caroline Fanning (49) is suing travel agent Trailfinders Ireland Limited in the High Court over events she alleges occurred while she and her 13-year-old daughter were on a package holiday on a ship controlled by Royal Caribbean Cruise Line.
