Tropical Storm Lala caused Honolulu Harbor to remain closed throughout the weekend, resulting in two Norwegian Cruise Line vessels being left stranded at sea with passengers awaiting updates. Both the Norwegian Spirit and Pride of America adjusted their routes prior to the storm, shortening their port visits and returning early to Honolulu, only to discover the harbor was still inaccessible as Lala hovered nearby. Passengers aboard these ships expressed their dissatisfaction due to the lack of clear information regarding flight arrangements, hotel accommodations, and boarding schedules. Although Lala diminished from hurricane status to a tropical storm over the weekend, it continued to bring destructive winds and heavy rainfall across the Hawaiian Islands.
