Florida – Amid concerns of rising cases of COVID-19 due to the omicron variant, Norwegian Cruise Line has canceled voyages for eight of its ships.
The cruise line said on its website it is canceling the following voyages:

“Our first priority is the health and safety of our guests, crew, and the communities we visit,” the cruise line said.

This comes as the Norwegian Pearl returned to PortMiami Wednesday after less than two days at sea. According to passengers, 6 crew members had tested positive for COVID-19.
Officials canceled the Norwegian Getaway’s voyage, the same day the Pearl returned to port.
“Our rigorous health and safety protocols include a mandatory 100% vaccination policy for our guests and crew coupled with universal pre-embarkation testing of guests at the terminal, mask requirements on board, and numerous additional layers of protection against COVID-19,” read the company’s statement on Wednesday.
