Stranded cruise ship passengers who left Belfast yesterday after months of delays have been thrown into limbo again after the luxury vessel was forced to turn back.
The Villa Vie Odyssey left Northern Ireland yesterday after being stranded for months at the port.
The ship and its 125 passengers – mainly from North America – finally took off yesterday after patiently waiting during repairs.
But now the unlucky cruiser has made a U-turn back to port – just hours into the trip.
This is thought to be due to some missing paperwork, the BBC reports.
It is scheduled to return to Belfast Harbour at about 1.30pm today.
Now passengers face another anxious wait to find out when they will get to enjoy the adventure they paid handsomely for.
Passengers either rent their suites for 35 to 120 days or buy them for anything from £90,000 up to £260,000.
The cruise ship was meant to set sail in May before it was marooned after breaking down.
