Cruise ship assisted Cuban refugees
On Sep 12, 2022, at 8 a.m. the 'Carnival Horizon' has assisted five Cuban refugees on its Western Caribbean itinerary. The ship rendered aid to a small boat adrift north of Cuba, providing supplies to the occupants and permitting the craft to continue on its way, as was the occupants’ choice. The cruise ship was slowly cruising east along the north coast of Cuba when the small craft was sighted, which appeared to be drifting. The cruise ship could have brought the individuals aboard, and they would have been transferred to the proper authorities, likely the US Coast Guard. They instead opted to remain with their craft and continue on their planned journey. The small boat was deemed safe for the refugees to continue, and the cruise ship continued on its route.
