Carnival Cruise Lines’ Carnival Freedom said it has been forced to alter its stops in the south Caribbean after several individuals onboard tested positive for COVID-19, the firm said.

“This is a vaccinated cruise, and all guests were also tested before embarkation,” Carnival Cruise Lines said in its statement to news outlets on Dec. 24. “Unfortunately, Bonaire and Aruba authorities did not permit the ship to call in those ports, but we have confirmed a visit to Amber Cove, [Dominican Republic] today.”
