a worldwide pandemic coronavirus has forced almost all countries to close the doors. The people are marginalized not only on land but also at sea. Thus, in the case of involuntary detention were tens of thousands of members of the crews of the giant cruise liners that are unable to return home. Dozens of “Titanic” are not able to moor to the shore and forced to drift near the popular resorts. The situation is compounded by the fact that many of the ships belong to the poor of the resort States that can not provide quarantine regime for crews on the ground, nor even to provide the courts the opportunity to approach.

At the beginning of the epidemic of the coronavirus, one of the main foci of steel passenger liners “Daimond Princess”, “Costa Magica” and many others, on Board each of which are at risk of infection were thousands of people. The country, the banks of which pandemic caught the cruise ships was not immediately able to solve the problem by placing thousands of passengers at quarantine.

Hundreds of thousands of frightened people chose to abstain from a cruise holiday. Tourism companies are left without clients, and their ships without passengers. However, this “crisis liners” is not over.

Recently, the Network appeared the satellite images, as well as data tracking the movement of giant ships specialized information resource. According to them, unable to approach the shore, the cruise ships off in groups of dozens of ships in the Caribbean and the Atlantic, trying to shelter from the storms.

the Causes of the forced drift is clear: in the resort regions are insufficient berths capable of taking ships of this class. Moreover, the contents of the liner on land can cost companies much more than swimming. Because of this, cruise ships remains adrift in the open sea.

a Number of countries in the Caribbean region even uses its naval power to keep ships away from their shores.

the Largest concentration of ships is in the area of Bahamas archipelago. Ships are owned by Royal Caribbean cruise lines and Norwegian cruise company, officially registered in the Bahamas.

divided into several groups of ships are drifting at a distance of 30 miles around the island of great Stirrup Kay. The court periodically from group to group, but remain in the area over the last few weeks.

several large groups of ships concentrated off the coast of the U.S. state of Florida, the Philippines and Cocos Islands.

Despite the fact that the ships passengers long gone, the actual hostages of the situation are thousands of members of crews of ships. According to estimates from the U.S. Coast guard, only in the Caribbean were forced to resort conclusion is almost 60 thousand browcentury.

They do not have the opportunity to go ashore for fear of the local authorities, and unable to return Home, because in this case they are deprived of wages and other payments accrued under the contract.

Despite the fact that several countries have made efforts to evacuate their citizens from the ships, the final solution yet.

Ships need crews to maintain all systems in working order. Crew fear a new outbreak of coronavirus on Board that can turn a luxury cruise ship in “the ship of death.”

the Owners of travel companies still hope to improve the situation and restore your business. Long spending on maintenance of courts, the contents of which costs millions of dollars, ultimately could lead to the collapse of the entire cruise industry guests, and later to the disposal of resort ships worldwide.
