The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has confirmed an outbreak of norovirus aboard the 'Celebrity Constellation' during its recent nine-night roundtrip which set off from Tampa on Jan 3, 2024, and returned on Jan 12 after calling at New Orleans, Cozumel, Belize, and Costa Maya. The vessel had 2,056 passengers on board, with 68 reporting symptoms of vomiting and diarrhoea, exceeding the 2 % threshold requiring reporting to the CDC?s Vessel Sanitation Program. Additionally, seven out of 948 crew members reported similar symptoms. The outbreak was confirmed as norovirus through testing. Immediate sanitation measures were implemented, including enhanced cleaning, and isolating affected individuals. As the vessel underwent a turnaround on Jan 12, debarking guests from one sailing and embarking guests for the next cruise, a full deep clean was likely conducted, with minimal impact expected on the next cruise. The next itinerary is a 12-night sailing, visiting Grand Cayman, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, and Cozumel before returning to Tampa on Jan 24.
