Carnival Miracle bumps the dock

BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – CRUISE passengers aboard the 2 124-passenger vessel Carnival Miracle were able to disembark to Port Zante safely after a challenging berth this morning (Jan. 28) that left the hull of the ship damaged.

I'm scheduled for the January 31st cruise on the Miracle. I called Carnival the representative had no information about the accident, and could not tell me if there will be any changes on Sunday.

Hope it does not mess up your cruise.:sunny:

The Miracle is due back in Fort Lauderdale on Sunday morning, but the incident has thrown the ship's timetable into question. Carnival says the ship's arrival time "is still to be determined, pending the ship's departure time from St. Kitts."

Will the on the spot repairs be sufficient, or will it take more extensive work? That's what I'm wondering.

We sailed on the Miracle on Feb 8th. Not a bit of problem. It was one of the best cruises ever. The crew is great and the boat is fantastic.
