ST JAMES, Jamaica — The Port Authority of Jamaica (PAJ) and Royal Caribbean are reporting that the incident involving the cruise line’s vessel, Harmony of the Seas, on arrival at the Falmouth Port in Trelawny on May 26, resulted in no disruption to operations.

Royal Caribbean, in a statement, indicated that the ship, which came into contact with an extension of the dock, incurred minor damage of no consequence and was repaired the same day.

“There were no injuries to guests or crew and only minor cosmetic damage to the ship’s stern. Sailing [continued] as scheduled,” the statement said.

For its part, the PAJ said the vessel collided with a mooring dolphin, adding that the incident did not result in any significant damage.

“The vessel was eventually moored without delay using the remaining infrastructure of the bollards on the remaining dolphin, to stabilise the vessel. Subsequently, passengers were able to disembark and proceed, as planned, to their tours and other scheduled activities,” the PAJ told the State-run JIS News.

“The mooring dolphin was displaced and will require reconstruction. Our Engineering Department is currently assessing the damage for further action. The Falmouth Port facility is designed to accommodate the safe berthing of vessels, notwithstanding the inaccessibility of the mooring dolphin, and will continue to do so as per normal port operations,” the document added.

“The PAJ wishes to reassure the public and all stakeholders that this incident will not result in any disruption to cruise shipping operations or require any adjustments to cruise schedules,” the statement added.

The vessel left Jamaica at approximately 4:00 pm last Thursday as it continued its sailing schedule.

Harmony of the Seas is the third largest cruise ship in the world, weighing in at 226,963 tonnes and carrying up to 6,410 passengers.
