BOARDING of the mega liner Voyager of the Seas was thrown into chaos yesterday following an outbreak of a gastrointestinal illness thought to be norovirus.
Some 135 passengers already aboard the ship, which arrived from New Zealand on Thursday, were struck by the illness, along with eight staff, a spokeswoman confirmed, adding this was about 4 per cent of the ship’s guests.
“Those affected by the short-lived illness have responded well to over the counter medication administered on board the ship”‘ Royal Carribbean said in a statement late yesterday.
