A cruise ship hit by the new coronavirus is headed to the port of Oakland, California, the captain told passengers, though they were destined to stay aboard the ship for at least another day.
Grand Princess Capt. John Smith, in a recording provided by passenger Laurie Miller of San Jose, told guests the ship will dock in Oakland.
Princess Cruises says it's expected to arrive on Monday. The ship is carrying more than 3,500 people from 54 countries.
An agreement has been reached to bring our ship into the port of Oakland, he told passengers Saturday night.
After docking, we will then begin a disembarkation process specified by federal authorities that will take several days."
