Travelers aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship are furious after the ship knowingly sailed into a massive nor'easter off the coast of South Carolina.
Royal Caribbean has decided to turn the ship around and go back to Newark, New Jersey as a new storm brewing off the coast of Florida threatens to put the Anthem of the Seas back through stomach-churning swells.
Passengers were forced to endure a 'horrendous' night of rocking as the ship made its way through the storm with hurricane-force winds.
Anthem of the Seas will turn around and sail back to Cape Liberty.
'This decision was made for guests' comfort due to weather forecasts.
'The forecast would likely have impacted original itinerary. We're also sensitive to what guests have already been through.
'We appreciate our guests’ patience and cooperation. We know it was tough day on Sunday and apologize for their discomfort,' Royal Caribbean's corporate Twitter posted.
The cruise line has offered a full refund and 50 per cent off the passengers' next cruise.
