A cruise line is supposedly asking for assistance from the US Navy after a ship with 1,455 guests, including a couple from Adelaide, has been rejected entry to Japan after days cruising “around in circles” in the South China Sea.

Bottom line:

  • A cruise ship is denied port entry in Japan after being turned away from Manilla
  • South Korea has actually likewise fallen off the itinerary for a port of call in 5 days’ time
  • The captain informs passengers the cruise line remains in talks with the United States Navy, although no known cases of coronavirus are on board

After being denied a set up drop in Philippines earlier this week, due to worries travelers might be carrying the coronavirus, the ship was making its method slowly to Japan.
