Creator's Key Takeaways

We have another ship that suffered a complete power outage and ended up being stuck in a port in the Mediterranean.

They were driving home from getting on, you know, various cruise ships, etc. on a tour bus and heading back towards Daytona Beach and bam, all of a sudden it started smoking underneath.

It was a complete blackout. Now, the crew quickly worked and did start getting everything back up and running right now, but it was still stuck in port overnight.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Monitor ship updates for engine or power issues before and during your sailing.
Be prepared for potential itinerary changes due to operational problems.
