One of the longest passenger ships in the world, the luxury passenger cruise liner docked in Durban’s old harbour on Monday.

This flagship is 1,132ft (345.0336 meters) in length and can accommodate a total of 2,691 guests as well as 1,173 crew members.

At the time, six crew members who tested positive for the virus were reportedly dropped off at the Port of Durban. The pandemic stopped cruises for close to 15 months.
