Braemar left La Romana in the Dominican Republic on Thursday after authorities refused to allow passengers to disembark. Fred Olsen said the decision was the result of “a very small number of influenza-like cases onboard”.
Two evacuation flights have taken off from St Maarten, with one heading for Manchester and another to Gatwick.
“Both operations were subject to significant delays due to continued controls put in place on St Maarten. We would like to apologise to all our guests for the inconvenience that this has caused,” Fred Olsen said.
