An NCL cruiseship has failed a health inspection in the US after flies were found in catering areas.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) also found that the response to acute gastroenteritis (AGE) among the crew was inadequate on the 146,000-gt Norwegian Breakaway (built 2013).

The ship was awarded a score of 84 in the 10 March check, where 86 is a pass.
