US Cruise Ship In Alaska Quarantined After Passenger Tests Positive

The Wilderness Adventurer, operated by Uncruise, left Juneau on a weeklong trip Saturday.

All passengers were required to get tested for COVID-19 before traveling to Alaska and boarding the boat. According to the City and Borough of Juneau, a passenger got a call after the ship left Juneau notifying them of the positive test result. 

According to Uncruise, that passenger was tested 5 days before the trip and had arrived with a negative test result in hand. It was a second test at the Juneau airport that showed the passenger was positive.
