前往纽约港口的邮轮启用备用计划
纽约邮轮港关闭,邮轮公司周二表示,纽约航线邮轮已启用备用计划。
挪威邮轮公司称,其挪威宝石号原定于本周初抵达纽约,现已改为挂靠波士顿补充供给和燃油,然后驶向纽约,在海上停留,等待纽约港重新开放。
该公司表示,将允许乘客在波士顿下船,并将协助通过本公司预订机票的乘客完成旅行计划。
挪威邮轮公司人士表示:"从这一点来说,我们预计纽约港将在周四或周五重新开放。"

Crystal Symphony号应于10月29日抵达纽约,目前也处于延误状态--直到10月30 日该邮轮还滞留在波士顿--现在将驶向查尔斯顿,让乘客下船。
公主邮轮公司称,直到上周末,纽约布鲁克林区的码头一直关闭,预计于10月31号在此挂靠、旅客下船的Caribbean Princess号因此受到影响。

Cruise ships headed to New York ports make alternate plans
The New York cruise port is closed, cruise lines said Tuesday as they broadcast alternative plans for New York-bound ships.
Norwegian Cruise Line said the Norwegian Gem, which was scheduled to arrive in New York earlier this week, would instead call in Boston to take on supplies and fuel, and then sail toward New York and remain at sea until the port reopens.
The line said passengers would be allowed to disembark in Boston, and that it would assist with travel plans for passengers who had booked air through Norwegian.
"At this point, we are anticipating that the port will reopen on Thursday or Friday," Norwegian said.
The Crystal Symphony, whose Oct. 29 arrival into New York was also delayed - the ship remained in Boston until Oct. 30 - will now sail to Charleston, S.C., and will embark passengers there.
Princess Cruises said the pier in Brooklyn, N.Y., was closed until the weekend, which affected the Caribbean Princess, which had been scheduled to embark passengers there Oct. 31.
