Carnival Liberty Switches Shipyards During Drydock
The Carnival Liberty is currently heading to France’s Chantier Naval de Marseille to finish routine work that started at the Navantia shipyard in Spain.
According to a report by La Voz de Cádiz, the Carnival Cruise Line ship sailed from the Spanish facility during the drydock due to a workers’ strike.
A group of local workers then tried to detain the vessel before being released and setting sail on June 22, La Voz de Cádiz said.
Carnival’s executive vice president of maritime and new builds, Ben Clement, reportedly travelled to Cádiz to negotiate with strikers.
