A cruise ship is reported to have suffered from power loss when it was on a cruise.

What happened?

On Thursday, a cruise passenger ‘Carnival Splendor’ lost power as it was sailing to St. Thomas, United States Virgin Island (USVI).

Carnival responded to the passenger by saying that that the Carnival cruise ship “has not lost engine power.  It’s only a technical issue affecting the ship’s maximum cruising speed.”

A statement issued by Carnival:

Carnival Splendor is currently experiencing a technical issue that is affecting the vessel’s maximum cruising speed. The ship’s technical team is currently working on assessing the repairs.

Due to current speed limitations, the remaining calls at St. Thomas and Amber Cove in the Dominican Republic have been cancelled so that the ship can return to its homeport of Miami on Sunday on schedule.

All guests on the current voyage will receive a $100 per person shipboard credit and a 25 percent credit toward a future Carnival cruise.

Carnival Splendor is on the fourth day of a seven-day cruise that departed Miami on Sunday and returns this Sunday.
