After about two weeks of aimlessly navigating for a port to land on, a Quarantined Cruise was finally able to dock in Sihanoukville, Cambodia, on Saturday, Feb. 15. The MS Westerdam cruise passengers seemed to have an extended vacation, which they could not complain about. The only single biggest complaint was from a 60-year-old Robert Sayers saying that the hash browns run out as well as the tomato sauce!

The world thought was ready to pity them
Although the whole world was going on about how they pity the quarantined cruise passengers for not being able to dock around and being turned away from Japan, Taiwan, Guam, Philippines, and even Thailand. It seemed like Cambodia was the only country that let this ship dock after a seemingly two-week voyage.
A beautiful statement was given by Hun Sen, who is viewed as an authoritarian ruler and is facing condemnation from Western countries for various human rights abuses. The warm message stated that the bigger disease around the world is fear and discrimination and gave direct remarks about Cambodia opening its doors to this cruise ship by saying if they did not allow this ship to dock, where would the 2,000 passengers go?
Aside from the wonderful cruise, passengers would even be reimbursed!
Holland America personally sent a letter to the passengers stating that the complete cost of the cruise would be reimbursed! The passengers were basically able to board the cruise ship for free! The cherry on the top of the cake was when Holland America even offered to give passengers another free 14-day cruise as well as chartering their flights home! The company even stated that the class of the flight of the passenger's original booking would possibly be matched according to Holland America's capacities.
Comments of the passengers resulted in nothing but positivity.
According to a retired Canadian aerospace engineer named Pierre Ashby, this experience was the best cruise ever! According to Ashby, when people book their cruises, they are usually offered just what they expected, but the cruise was different because it was nothing like he expected! In fact, Ashby stated that it was quite an enjoyable adventure and the best cruise of his life.
Nobody on this cruise ship was found to be positive of the coronavirus
When further results came to light, it was also found that the coronavirus actually infected none of these passengers from Wuhan, which has already claimed the lives of about 1,500 people. Although the gravity of the situation was pretty serious, the quarantined cruise passengers were able to experience the cruise of their lives absolutely free!
The coronavirus from Wuhan has been making headlines everywhere, which have affected the decisions of certain countries to ban passage from other countries like what happened to the MS Westerdam. Now, because of the unfair discrimination experienced by the quarantined cruise passengers, they can now enjoy another 14-day cruise for free! Free Porn. Free Food. Free Internet. And now, A FREE 14-DAY CRUISE ONCE AGAIN!
