Fly invasion on cruise ship
During the call of the 'Mein Schiff 6' ar Leixões, from July 1–2, the ship faced an insect infestation in its outdoor areas. On the embarkation day on July 2, Captain Kira Schikorr addressed the guests via the public address system that afternoon regarding the situation. She noted that the ship had never before encountered such a problem involving a massive swarm of flies in that location. The incident baffled both the crew and port authorities, as an insect infestation of this magnitude on a cruise ship is highly unusual. Although the Captain stated that the insects were harmless, going outside was reportedly unpleasant on that day. The crew attempted to implement measures to prevent the flies from entering the ship's interior in large numbers and to encourage them to leave the outdoor areas. Guests aboard 'Mein Schiff 6' were asked to keep their balcony doors closed and to avoid leaving sliding doors to outdoor areas open longer than necessary. The pool deck was temporarily almost unusable due to the sheer number of flies. The insects were likely attracted to the cruise ship's many light-colored surfaces by the hot, sunny summer weather. After consulting with experts, the crew hoped the insects would leave the ship as temperatures cooled and the sun set. On the evening, the 'Mein Schiff 6' departed for a day at sea en route to Le Verdon-sur-Mer.
