Royal Caribbean's newest ship, Odyssey of the Seas, disembarked several crew members in Spain who have tested positive for COVID-19 as the ship makes its way to the U.S. There are no passengers on board. "Earlier this week, four crew members were identified after a positive test; they were immediately quarantined," Royal Caribbean said in a statement. "We are working with local health authorities to safely disembark these crew members and oversee any medical care they need," the cruise line said and later confirmed that the crew members had indeed disembarked at the Port of Palma in Mallorca, Spain. No other positive cases of coronavirus were identified on board by midday Monday. As part of the cruise line's COVID-19 protocol, all crew must receive a negative PCR test prior to boarding. On board, everyone participates in ongoing testing. Most crew members currently on board Odyssey of the Seas have not been vaccinated yet. The crew members who have not been vaccinated will be vaccinated once they arrive in the U.S., according to a spokesperson.
