Passengers were stranded in Hawaii after their Norwegian Cruise Line ship, Pride of America, departed early due to a tsunami warning from an 8.8 earthquake near Russia.

Passengers of the Pride of America from Norwegian Cruise Line docked in Hilo were expected to return to the harbor for a departure time of 6 p.m. Once the state of Hawaii declared a state of emergency due to the tsunami at approximately 2:45 p.m., the cruise liner had to abruptly set sail at 4 p.m.

When a tsunami warning was issued for Hawaii on July 29, Norwegian Cruise Line’s Pride of America needed to get out of port early to avoid a potential disaster.

In Hawaii, ships were directed out to sea by officials, but some guests who were on shore excursions couldn’t make it back in time to get aboard.

Here's how the Russian earthquake and tsunami warnings have impacted cruise ships and travelers in the Pacific.

Hundreds of cruise passengers found themselves unexpectedly stranded when their ships were ordered to sea during tsunami warnings triggered by an 8.

Six Hundred passengers were left behind when Norwegian Cruise Line's Pride of America pulled away from Hilo Harbor two hours ahead of schedule on Tuesday.
