Oasis of the Seas Delays New Jersey Return by Eight Hours After Emergency Evacuations
Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas is arriving at its Cape Liberty homeport in New Jersey approximately eight hours late on September 20, 2026, after two guests, including a seven-year-old child, were rushed to hospitals in Nassau for critical medical emergencies. The delay has forced the cancellation of the ship’s next port call in Port Canaveral, Florida, and pushed back embarkation times for the subsequent seven-night Bahamas cruise. Royal Caribbean is offering onboard credit and flight change fee reimbursements to affected passengers.
