Mauritius Halts Norwegian Cruise Ship Over Health Concerns

Mauritius has denied a Norwegian cruise ship permission to dock at the capital Port Louis over fears of a potential cholera outbreak on board, with at least 15 people on the Norwegian Dawn in isolation over suspected illness. The decision was made to avoid health risks, and samples were taken for testing. Passengers developed mild symptoms of a stomach illness during a trip to South Africa, and there have been cholera outbreaks in southern Africa. The ship arrived in Mauritius with 2,184 passengers and 1,026 crew members, and those disembarking or joining the cruise will now do so on 27 February.

Norwegian Cruise Ship Battles Storm and Rogue Wave, Loses Navigation Ability

A Norwegian cruise ship, MS Maud, carrying 400 passengers and crew is being towed back to Germany after being hit by a 'rogue wave' during a storm in the North Sea. The wave shattered windows on the bridge and caused a power outage, but the ship's main engine is still functioning. The ship's 266 passengers and 131 crew members are safe, and there have been no serious injuries reported. The vessel is being towed to Bremerhafen, Germany for disembarkation. This incident comes six weeks after another cruise ship, the Spirit of Discovery, was battered by a storm in the Bay of Biscay.
