YouTube Video Description

Please watch: "Alaska Solo Cruise" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-unjGmFyVc --~-- --~-- Carnival Freedom Returns After Fire Repairs. Saturday Travel and Cruise Industry News June 11, 2022 . The Carnival Freedom repairs are finished, and the ship is returning to service from Port Canaveral today. This follows some time in the Bahamas to make repairs due to a fire that broke out at the end of May 2022. A fire broke out onboard the Conquest-class vessel on May 26 while docked in Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos Islands. The fire was mainly within the ship’s iconic red, white and blue funnel and, at the time, was a significant threat to the vessel. Thanks to the vessel’s fire crews and local authorities, the funnel fire was eventually extinguished with no injuries reported among the crew or guests. However, the fire forced the cruise line to cancel multiple sailings and take another sister ship out of service to help get all the guests back to Port Canaveral. The good news is that the repair work to the Carnival Freedom has now been completed at the Grand Bahama shipyard in Freeport, Bahamas, she has relocated to Port Canaveral and is currently taking on passengers for today's cruise. The vessel will depart at approximately 3:30 PM on a five-day cruise to Nassau, Princess Cays and Grand Turk. The iconic funnel is not the same as before, and the two fins that come out of the side have both been removed. The vessel now has a more traditional funnel look. The work started while the ship was still in Grand Turk after a technical team assessed the damage. It’s likely once the ship undergoes a more scheduled official dry dock, the funnel will be fully back to how it was before the fire. Thanks for visiting my channel.
