Expected sunny trip turn into a detour to Halifax, where the temperature stalled at 12 degrees
The 'Oasis of the Seas' departed from Cape Liberty, New Jersey, on Oct 18 for a seven-night cruise to Florida and the Bahamas with more than 5000 passengers on board. Severe stormy weather off the US East Coast turned that itinerary upside down just before departure. After consulting with its own meteorologists, the shipping company diverted the course to Halifax, in the province of Nova Scotia. Some passengers only heard about the route change a few hours before boarding. As a result, those who had already traveled to the port were left at a cold destination wearing only light summer clothing. The ship remained docked in Halifax for 24 hours. After a trip along the Canadian coast, another three full days at sea followed. The ship docked in New Jersey again on Oct 25 as planned. Royal Caribbean handed out pocket money for on board. That amount ranged from 200 to 600 dollars per cabin. Unused credit was being paid out, and affected passengers received a 50 % discount voucher for a future trip. All canceled excursions in the Bahamas were refunded immediately.
Cruise ship delayed after two medevacs
Two passengers, including a 7-year-old child, were medevaced from the 'Oasis of the Seas' in the Bahamas on Sep 18, 2026, for emergency medical treatment. The ship, which was sailing toward New Jersey, altered its course and returned towards Nassau, after a passenger required hospital treatment. According to an announcement from the ship’s Captain, Nassau was the nearest location where the passenger could receive the required medical care. While the ship was returning to Nassau, a second passenger was reported to be critically ill. Both passengers were subsequently taken ashore in Nassau for further treatment. The medical evacuations affected the ship’s schedule, delaying its subsequent departure and resulting in the cancellation of a scheduled port call in Florida. The ship reached Cape Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey, on Sep 20 at ~2:00 p.m., eight hours later than its originally scheduled 6:00 a.m. arrival.
Passenger medevaced in Bermuda
A 74-year-old female passenger from Belgium caused the 'Oasis of the Seas' to return to Bermuda on April 24, 2024, at 5 a.m. The ship, which en route from Miami, Florida to Cadiz, arrived in local waters at 1 a.m. to drop off a 69-year-old passenger from the USA, who needed medical attention. The passenger was taken to Ordnance Island and escorted safely to KEMH.
