A ten-night sailing of Royal Caribbean s Grandeur of the Seas cruise ship was cut short by one day after nearly 10% of passengers were struck by norovirus. An unrelated medical sport car rentals missouri emergency expedited the need for the ship to dock early as bad weather made an at-sea sport car rentals missouri transfer impossible.
According to Royal Caribbean spokeswoman Cynthia Martinez, over the course of the sailing, 193 passengers (9.91%) and nine crewmembers (1.15%) experienced gastrointestinal illness, confirmed on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's website as norovirus.
After passengers were offloaded, the line began an extensive sanitizing of the ship and within the cruise terminal. This was the second such cleansing in two weeks. The line conducted a similar sanitization the day the shortened sailing departed as a number of passengers on the previous sailing also were hit by a gastrointestinal bug. On that sailing, 123 passengers (6.3%) and seven crewmembers (0.9%) got sick.
Passengers on the shortened sailing received an onboard credit (varying in amount by stateroom category) for missing Labadee, the line's private sport car rentals missouri port of call in Haiti, as well as a future cruise certificate equal to one day of the cruise fare they paid.
Norovirus is a gastrointestinal illness that causes flulike symptoms, including vomiting, low-grade fever and diarrhea. It spreads quickly when many people are confined to a small area, such as a cruise ship -- but also hotels, sport car rentals missouri schools and hospitals. The best way to avoid catching the illness is to wash your hands thoroughly before and after eating and when you use the bathroom.
