Freedom of the Seas Docked In Cozumel (2012) Fire is always a dangerous thing, whether it occurs in a building on land or on a ship at sea. Royal Caribbean's Public Relations' Twitter page (@RCLcorp) posted this morning that their ship, Freedom of the Seas, had a fire in a mechanical space onboard the ship. Their Twitter account also reported in the same post the fire was contained and all systems were functioning. While Royal Caribbean reported via Twitter that all guests were safe & had no injuries, one crew member had to be treated for first degree burns. The guests onboard were sent to muster stations as a precaution. The ship was on its way to Falmouth, Jamaica and the guests got to enjoy the port of call once the ship was docked & clearance was given for the guests to get off. The ship is scheduled to dock in Grand Cayman, tomorrow (Thursday, July 23, 2015).
Thankfully, the crew of the Freedom of the Seas was able to contain and extinguish the fire onboard. It is a very good thing the ship's onboard systems are reported to be functioning because onboard systems can include things such as the a/c and toilets. At this time, there have been no reports of any essential systems being down. The Freedom of the Seas departed Port Canaveral on Sunday, July 19 and the ship is scheduled to end this cruise on Sunday, July 26, 2015.
