I am always fascinated by these videos and extremely grateful for their duty and training.

Watching the webcam for the Splendor pulling into NYC. Both my sons are on the ship with their girlfriends.

 

I have the news on and geeeezzz..I hear.... "The Splendor airlifted 2 men off the coast for "medical issues" in the middle of the night. No other info.

 

Of course, as a mom, I go into a panic. :(

 

I know, I know, the chances of it being my sons are 2 in 3006 passengers.

 

Has anyone heard anything?

We were on the ship. Malcolm (CD) informed everyone that one passenger and one crew member were ill were being medi-vac (sp ?) by helicopter off the ship. Hope both are doing well.

I hope they purchased trip insurance that covered medical... An evac can cost 20,000 to be taken off the ship

That's just awful.

Although I always carry med evac insurance jic. If the USCG did the evacuation then the bill is funded by the United States taxpayers.

One gentleman was airlifted from the imagination during our cruise. Our CD made an announcement to stay away from the Verandah deck to allow for the helicopter to land. Our karaoke host said he assisted in taking the guy to the medical facilities.

I was just thinking the same thing. I was on in October and someone was airlifted off. Strange indeed!
