U.S. Coast Guard Detains MSC Cruise Ship in Miami

The U.S. Coast Guard has detained the cruise ship MSC Poesia at PortMiami, forcing MSC Cruises to cancel an 11-night Caribbean voyage after the vessel remained in port for two days due to mechanical issues.

The incident has led to the disembarkation of all 3,500 passengers and crew, with the cruise line arranging alternative transportation and accommodations.

The cause of the detention is a propulsion problem that the ship's crew is working to repair. The Coast Guard is investigating the incident to ensure the vessel's compliance with safety standards.
