Carnival and Norwegian cruise ships are scrambling to get stranded ship workers home by sailing them to different countries as the CDC refuses to let crew disembark in the US
as en route to the Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas. The ships are all slated to arrive tomorrow afternoon.
On Tuesday April 21, the captain of the Norwegian Epic made a ship-wide announcement discussing the CDC's new rules regarding the movement of crew on and off ships during the coronavirus pandemic. "I'm quite okay, but a lot of my colleagues are bummed," the Norwegian crew member told Business Insider. "Understandably so."
The Carnival spokesperson told Business Insider that the company has so far singled out "a number of ships" at ports in North America "to travel to ports in Asia, Europe, and Latin America." Carnival will only allow crew members who "have been cleared by our medical team and by immigration authorities in their home countries" to transfer vessels, and all such crew members will receive daily temperature checks.
We have currently identified a number of ships from our North American home ports to travel to ports in Asia, Europe, and Latin America.
