Holland America’s Westerdam cruise ship has received permission to disembark at a port in Thailand after it was denied entry by several Asian ports as fears of the coronavirus continue to escalate.

The Seattle-based cruise operator confirmed that the Westerdam is sailing for Laem Chabang in Bangkok before disembarking on Thursday.
