Cruise Ship 'Made Contact' with Large Piece of Ice in What Passenger Called a 'Titanic Moment'

The Carnival Spirit struck floating ice in an Alaskan fjord last week and cruisers captured the moment on Tiktok

A cruise ship struck a large floating piece of ice in Alaska last week in a scene one passenger called a "Titanic moment."

On Thursday, Sept. 5, the Carnival Spirit cruise ship was traversing the notoriously icy Tracy Arm Fjord when it "made contact with an errant piece of drifting ice," a spokesperson for Carnival Cruise Line said in a statement to PEOPLE.

In a video shared to TikTok of the cruise — which departed from Seattle, Wash. on Sept. 3 — user Cassandra Goskie documented the moment. "If we die it was damn-well worth it, it's a Titanic moment," Goskie said in the clip as the ship approached the ice, which appeared to make contact with its right side. "Oh gosh. We're hitting it. Damn."

Thankfully, she wrote, the ice "didn't do any damage that caused us to use any emergency procedures."

A Carnival spokesperson confirmed there was an assessment that determined there was "no damage to the ship’s hull" as the boat "continued on its cruise" with "no impact to operations.” CNN reports that no one on board the ship was hurt.

The footage itself showed multiple passengers on the side of the ship with their phones out, recording the large chunk of blue-tinged ice as the Spirit sailed right toward it. In the video's caption, Goskie commended Carnival staff on how they responded to the ice, writing, "The crew did an amazing job at [assessing] the damage and keep all of its crew and passengers safe and informed!"

While CNN reports that passenger Saurabh Singhal said the ship was stopped “for hours to assess damages," the ship reportedly returned to Seattle as planned after its seven-day cruise on Tuesday, Sept. 10, before embarking again on a 14-day trip to Alaska.
