Tsunami Warning & Info for Norwegian Sun & Pride of America Guests

Statement from Norwegian Cruise Line:

Pride of America Guests
Because of a tsunami warning, the Port of Honolulu has been closed. Pride of America, which was scheduled to dock in Honolulu this morning, will spend the day at sea until the port reopens. The safety of the ship's passengers and crew is of the utmost importance. While at sea, this situation does not in any way compromise the safety and security of our passengers and crew.

At this time, we anticipate that the port will re-open at 5 pm local time in Hawaii. Pride of America should be alongside shortly after that and we expect that the next cruise will depart later this evening. Guests traveling to Honolulu or already in Honolulu for the ship's next voyage should call Norwegian Cruise Line at 800-327-7030.

Norwegian Sun Guests
Norwegian Sun is in Montevideo, Uruguay today as scheduled. The ship will arrive in Buenos Aires, Brazil tomorrow as scheduled and embark guests on the Feb 28, 2010 cruise. We are closely monitoring the situation in Chile and will keep guests updated as to any changes to the current scheduled itinerary.

Linda,
Thank you. Any developments on the Santigo-

Buenos ayres cruise scheduled for March 14.

I gather that the majority of passengers are from North America or Europe.
The flights are not landing yet.

Any plans

No, I haven't heard anything yet. When I do, I'll share it here on the blog.
