“We are assessing the damage to both ships,” the cruise line wrote. “There is one reported minor injury of a Carnival Glory guest that occurred when a group of guests were evacuated from the dining room on Decks 3 and 4.”
Twitter user @JayTea1993 shared a closer image of the damaged cruise ship. One of its corners is dented inwards, with parts of the balcony hanging loose. Multiple windows are smashed in.
“Look at the damage done to the Carnival Glory after it ran into another ship,” reads the caption.
According to cruisefever.net, high winds appeared to be a contributing factor in the collision.
The extent of the damage isn’t currently known. According to the vacation publication, the Carnival Glory is on a seven-night cruise to the Western Caribbean out of New Orleans.
The Carnival Legend is also on a week-long cruise to the same area from Tampa, Fla.
