Carnival cruise ship passenger blown up 200 miles off Cape Cod after falling ill: Coast Guard

A woman who fell ill Monday on a Carnival cruise ship more than 200 miles off the coast of Cape Cod had to be flown to a hospital.

The cruise line’s Legend ship was on day two of a 14-day voyage to Greenland when the crew called the Coast Guard for help around 6:30 p.m

One passenger had abdominal pain and was vomiting all day, according to the USCG said in a statement.

The military based its MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter on the 12-deck ship, which was 180 nautical miles from the airbase.

The Legend made a sharp left turn toward the easternmost tip of the cape to meet the flight crew closer to shore. Show the chart data from Carnival.

Upon arrival just before 10:30 p.m., the crew “lifted the cruise ship’s patient and nurse safely,” the military said.

The couple were then taken to the emergency services at 00:05

The current condition of the woman and her illness are still unclear.

The cruise continues its journey to Greenland.

It left a port in Baltimore, Maryland on Saturday and is expected to return on September 16.

The huge boat holds more than 3,000 people – including over 2,100 guests.

Carnival did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The medevac rescue comes a week after a 19-year-old student fell overboard on the world’s largest cruise ship.

Sigmund Ropich fell into the water off the coast of Cuba while vacationing with friends and has not been found to this day.
