Man overboard!

A passenger aboard a Norwegian Cruise Line vessel was swept overboard by intense winds and fell into the sea just as the ship moved away from the dock.

The person was disembarking while the Norwegian Epic ship docked in Catania, Sicily, last Friday, according to a cruise line spokesperson.

“The crew members on duty swiftly came to the guest’s aid, retrieving them from the water and ensuring they were assessed by the medical team. It was concluded that the individual had minor injuries, and they were taken to a local hospital for additional checks and treatment,” Norwegian Cruise Line stated in a release shared with PEOPLE.

At the time, wind gusts in the area were as high as 45 miles per hour, according to AccuWeather.

Following the passenger’s unfortunate fall, the ship halted all disembarking and paused until weather conditions improved, allowing for docking to continue, as mentioned by the spokesperson.

Cruise line mishaps are a dime a dozen, especially during the summer season as eager families seek adventure the minute schools lets out.

Last April, one ship with a Norwegian Cruise Line-sponsored tour abandoned an 80-year-old passenger in Africa after she suffered a stroke during an excursion.

Another pair of elderly castaways were left stranded by the cruise line in Spain last May when the ship left without them.

In July, a family of nine was accidentally left behind in Alaska after crews miscounted during their check to ensure all the passengers had returned before departing.
