Cruise ship runs aground in Caribbean

(CMR) A 164,000-ton cruise ship ran aground in the Dominican Republic on Monday. The Norwegian Escape, a 2015-built mega-ship that can accommodate over 4,000 passengers, hit the seabed as it pulled away from Puerto Plata, damaging the ship's hull, CNN Travel reported.

The rest of the cruise was canceled, with passengers evacuated at Puerto Plata, from where they were expected to be repatriated. Travelers will receive a full refund on the aborted cruise and credit for the same amount to put towards a future voyage.

Puerto Plata was the first stop in the seven-day cruise, which had set out from Orlando on March 12. The incident was reportedly caused by strong winds and left passengers stranded overnight. The ship was refloated and returned to port at high tide on Tuesday morning, where they spent two days waiting to hear what would happen next as the ship was inspected.

Norwegian, in a statement, explained: “During the afternoon of March 14, 2022, Norwegian Escape made contact with the channel bed as it was departing Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. In the early morning on March 15, the ship was refloated and returned to the dock at Puerto Plata, where she is currently located.”

“While there is minor damage to the ship's hull, all guests and crew are safe. The current cruise will be shortened, and the cruise scheduled to embark on March 19 will be canceled so that the necessary repairs can be made,” the cruise line said.
