Amid the global coronavirus pandemic and related travel restrictions, several cruise ships carrying thousands of passengers are stuck at sea, a major association of cruise lines said Monday.

The group Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA,) which counts Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Princess Cruise Lines among its 38 member cruise companies, confirmed that about 3.6 percent of its 277-ship fleet – about 10 vessels – are still at sea, People reports. Another five vessels are reportedly docked, but passengers cannot yet disembark.

CRUISING DURING THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK: SHOULD I CANCEL MY CRUISE? WHAT PRECAUTIONS SHOULD I TAKE?

All but one of the ships have a final destination port identified, People claims. There is no guarantee that the ports the cruise ships are traveling toward will ultimately accept them, either.

On March 13, the CLIA announced that its ocean-faring member cruise lines would "voluntarily and temporarily" be suspending operations from U.S. ports for 30 days during the coronavirus crisis, the organization said. The Department of Homeland Security instructed 40 cruise ships, which were at sea, to return to port by the end of March, according to the outlet.

Ron DeSantis has claimed that the health care resources in the Sunshine State are already stretched too thin.
