How did you find this?

 

Unfortunately, if they are Cuban refugees, due to the wet-foot dry-foot policy they will be sent back to Cuba to try again.

 

In the mean time, they get to enjoy deluxe accomodations aboard the lovely Coral Princess. Can you imagine being a refugee and experiencing what life is like aboard a cruise ship? They will think they are in paradise....even more motivation to try again.

doubt it...they were probably locked up....and because of the location, on board for only 1 night before Lauderdale

My husband and I were on this cruise. The Princess crew brought them on board after contacting the Coast Guard. About an hour or two later, the Coast Guard arrived and took them off of the Coral.

 

From the Coast Guard website I found out they were all repatriated to Cuba except one who went to Guantanemo Bay for further questioning.

This incident was mentioned in yesterdays blog at http://roamingmindofnorm.blogspot.com. Apparently, two cruise ships had previously passed them by.
