A British cruise ship that has been stranded for more than a week in the Caribbean after several cases of the new coronavirus were confirmed onboard is set to dock in Cuba today to allow weary passengers to disembark and fly home.
The mostly British passengers stranded on the COVID 19-stricken ship will then be repatriated by plane.
Britain's Foreign Minister Dominic Raab expressed gratitude on Tuesday in parliament to Communist-run Cuba for offering a safe haven to the Braemar which has more than 1,000 mainly British passengers and crew aboard, after several Caribbean ports refused to let it dock.
The novel coronavirus , SARS-CoV-2, has plunged the cruise industry into chaos as the global tightening of entry requirements has left many ships stranded or quarantined. Cruise lines have suspended future trips in recent days.
