At 3.42am the next morning, the ship set sail again – this time heading for the 76-mile long Hubbard Glacier which sits at the end of Disenchantment Bay. But dramatic playback footage of the ship's movements provided by Marine Traffic shows it abruptly changed course at 4.42am – minutes after it crashed into the iceberg. It then limped back to port in Juneau, Alaska, where it docked just before midnight on the 26th. In a statement released on Tuesday, Norwegian Cruise Line said: 'On June 25 2022, while transiting to Hubbard Glacier, Alaska, Norwegian Sun made contact with ice. 'The ship sailed to Juneau, Alaska, where it was decided that the current voyage would be shortened. 'The ship was given clearance by the US Coast Guard and other maritime authorities to return to Seattle at reduced speed. 'All guests currently onboard will disembark in Seattle as planned.' Passengers have been offered a 100 per cent refund as well as a credit for future travel equivalent to the total cost of the trip. A fresh voyage planned for Thursday has been canceled.
