Two recent Royal Caribbean cruises saw more than 500 people become sick after outbreaks of stomach related illnesses, causing five people to be hospitalized in one case.
After departing Dec. 11 from Port Everglades in Florida, 332 of the 5,547 guests aboard the Independence of the Seas became sick with gastrointestinal illness, a spokesperson told NBC News.
The outbreak came less than a month after 209 of the 5,796 people aboard Ovation of the Seas ship reported symptoms, said Cynthia Martinez, a Royal Caribbean International cruise line spokeswoman. The ship returned to Sydney on Dec. 7 at the end of a 14 night cruise that departed from Singapore on Nov. 23.
