Alert – Carnival Ship Returns to Port

Yesterday, the Carnival Sensation was forced to return to port due to a passenger’s illness.

The Miami Herald reports:

A Carnival Cruise ship headed to Jamaica will be skipping its stop in Grand Cayman after a passenger suffered a medical emergency, causing the ship to return to PortMiami early Sunday. The Carnival Sensation was on its way to Ocho Rios when an unidentified passenger suffered “a severe medical condition,” officials said.

According to NBC Miami:

However, sea conditions were too rough for the ship to make it back to Port Miami, so it arrived at Government Cut and met rescue crews there. The passenger, who is from Chile, was taken by boat with two family members to Port Miami where they were eventually taken by ambulance to an area hospital.

No word on the passenger’s condition at this time and the ship returned on its scheduled trip to Jamaica.
