Regent Voyager Heads to Dubai to Fix Pod

Yesterday the Regent Seven Seas Voyager was in Cochin, India, where engineers inspected the damage done to the Dolphin propulsion pod that snagged a fishing net several days ago.

The incident has caused kinks in the World Cruise itinerary. Since the damage couldn't be fixed in Cochin, the next two stops—Mumbia and Abu Dhabi—have been canceled. Voyager will sail on to Dubai, where the pod problem can be fixed before the next segment of the World Cruise embarks on April 1.

Cruisers are said to be in good spirits, despite the change in schedule. Regent is working on a compensation package for those affected on this itinerary.
