The Holland America cruise ship, whose stop in Grand Cayman was cancelled this week, is now among 88 cruise ships under investigation by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for onboard COVID-19 cases.

The Cayman Islands government has reversed a decision to allow a cruise ship to stop at George Town on 28 Dec.

Although not officially part of Phase 4 of government's border reopening plan, cruise line Holland America has been given the nod to call on Grand Cayman on 28 Dec., making it the first cruise to touch local shores in almost 20 months.
