The MS Braemar was stranded in the Bahamas

The MS Braemar was briefly stranded 25 miles South West of Freeport, an area in the Bahamas, after being denied entry at several ports in the Caribbean.

Although the cruise ship was stranded in the Bahamas,  a cargo ship delivered a supply of food, medication and ship supplies overnight.

According to Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, the British company that owns the MS Braemar, four passengers and one crew member have tested positive for COVID-19 onboard the MS Braemar, including a doctor. In addition to those who have become confirmed coronavirus cases, 22 guests and 21 crew members have been put in isolation after displaying influenza-like symptoms.

Fred. Olsen announced this morning that the cruise was setting sail for Cuba, where guests will be "repatriated back to the UK by air," astatement from the company read. Once all of its cruise ships return home, all of its ocean cruise operations will be suspended until May 23.
