Coronavirus: cruise passengers relieved to be ashore but stranded in Cambodia

Travel options have been narrowed by a growing list of countries denying entry to passengers from the ship

The cheers of celebration have faded. The waving of roses has ceased. Having finally reached a friendly port willing to accept them after nearly two weeks of uncertainty at sea, hundreds of cruise ship passengers stranded in Cambodia by the new coronavirus outbreak are now simply trying to find a way home.

"It's a weird feeling to travel and go on a trip and you don't know when you can come home," said US citizen Lydia Miller, 55, who is camped out at a hotel in Phnom Penh, waiting to hear how she and her husband might be able to return home.
