After less than 24 hours at sea, the debut sailing of AMF Friendship on the Celebrity Equinox was forced back to port in Miami following a medical emergency. The news first came from PTZtv, a site that shares streaming webcam coverage at cruise ports.

Initial reports suggest that the person who fell ill could have been a DJ, but these rumors are as yet unfounded and uncorroborated. No official statement has been made by either Friendship or AMF at this time. Port of Miami confirmed via Twitter that the ship returned for a medical emergency, and has already left the Port back to sea.

If the lineup managed to not be affected too much, those sailing should still be able to enjoy their time onboard before the ship returns for real on the 15th.

Per a passenger, there is a medical emergency.

QUITE often, ships will return to a port for emergency medical help when they’re close enough. It’s pretty expensive to fly a Coast Guard helicopter out to a ship. (I imagine. I’ve never seen a bill)

Medical emergency. Ship has already left Terminal G.
