Medical emergency delays Royal Caribbean cruise
Royal Caribbean International’s
Explorer of the Seas will arrive a day late to Cape Liberty, its homeport in
Bayonne, N.J., on Jan. 28 due to a medical emergency onboard the 1,185-passenger
ship.
According to the cruise line, an ill passenger required urgent medical treatment in a hospital, so the ship altered course to its closest port of call, San Juan.
The U.S. Coast Guard evacuated the sick passenger Jan. 25, and the ship is now headed back to New Jersey.
The delayed arrival will impact the itinerary of the cruise departing Jan. 28. The ship will spend Jan. 29 and 30 at sea, and a planned call at Labadee, Royal Caribbean's private destination on Haiti, has been canceled.
