Two Carnival Cruise Line ships collided at the port in Cozumel, Mexico, Friday morning, leaving one passenger injured, the company said.
The Carnival Glory ship hit the Carnival Legend ship and then narrowly missed colliding with Royal Caribbean Cruises' Oasis of the Seas ship. At the time, the Carnival Glory ship was maneuvering to dock at the port, and the Carnival Legend and Oasis of the Seas ships were docked.
Photos posted on Twitter show damage to at least two decks of the right rear of Carnival Glory. Miami-based Carnival Cruise Line said via email that the company is assessing the damage to both ships, but there is no impact that will prevent either ship from sailing.
"There is one reported minor injury of a Carnival Glory guest that occurred when a group of guests were evacuated from the dining room on Decks 3 and 4," the company said in a statement.
At the time of the collision, Carnival Glory was on a seven-day Western Caribbean cruise from New Orleans due to return Sunday. The ship is 952 feet long and can hold 2,980 passengers at double capacity. The Carnival Legend is 963 feet long and can hold 2,124 passengers at double capacity.
The company said that future sailings on both ships will not be affected.
