"Norwegian Cruise Line Criticized for Stranding Passengers and Mishandling Medical Emergency"
TL;DR
An 80-year-old woman suffered a stroke during a Norwegian Cruise Line-sponsored tour and was left behind on an African island, prompting her family to criticize the company for abandoning her and failing to respond to their calls. The cruise line claimed the passengers missed the ship's departure time, but the family disputes this and accuses the company of neglect. The woman was eventually helped by other stranded passengers and is now recovering in a California hospital after a harrowing journey back to the US.
