49 British citizens repatriated from Mexico
Mexico allowed 49 British citizens to disembark from the 'Marella Explorer 2' and fly home, and in exchange the cruise line paid for 141 Mexicans stuck in England by coronavirus travel restrictions to fly home. On March 31 the Mexican navy had removed a passenger in critical condition from the vessel for emergency treatment ashore. The ship was anchored off the Yucatan state port of Puerto Progreso. The passengers taken off the ship on April 1 were transported to the Yucatan capital of Merida and put on a chartered flight to London. Health precautions were taken. The Mexican and British governments coordinated both operations with the cruise ship operator, Marella Cruises, part of British company TUI Travel. It was unclear how many were still aboard.
