A cruise ship with 99 Canadians on board has arrived in Miami.
Princess Cruises says disembarkation of guests who are fit to fly will begin Sunday.
The ship has 97 Canadian passengers and two Canadian crew members.
The Coral Princess departed San Antonio on March 5 and was set to end its voyage March 19 in Buenos Aires before the COVID-19 pandemic suspended operations.
The ship has been looking for a place to dock since March 13, but no country had allowed it. Princess Cruises has said a dozen people on board have tested positive for COVID-19, while others are experiencing flu-like symptoms.
