SOME passengers from the Caribbean Princess cruise ship had to wait more than an hour to get back on board yesterday.

It was the largest vessel to visit the island so far this year, with capacity for more than 3,700 passengers.
However, with the vessel arriving at 6am and aiming to depart at 2pm, it led to a short day and a long queue.
Jim and Pat Mitchell from Arizona went to Herm for the morning.
'We had a very nice time, but the queuing is not so nice,' Mr Mitchell said.
'We have waited for more than 45 minutes.'
The Azura cruise ship, which has a capacity of nearly 3,600, will be arriving in Guernsey at 8am this morning and departing at about 6pm.
