AIDAperla Passenger Medevac After Apparent Heart Attack Off Bonaire – 3 February 2026

AIDAperla passenger medevac was conducted on 3 February 2026, after a 37-year-old male passenger reportedly suffered an apparent heart attack while the ship was at sea off Bonaire.

The ship’s medical team sent a distress report and consulted an on-call physician. After the passenger’s condition was assessed, medical personnel determined that he required immediate transfer ashore for specialised care.

A Coast Guard rescue helicopter was dispatched to intercept AIDAperla at sea. The passenger was airlifted to shore and then taken by ambulance to a local medical facility. The available report does not disclose his condition or outcome after admission.

The incident occurred during a 14-day Caribbean cruise operating roundtrip from Bridgetown, Barbados, from January 22 to 5 February 2026. The itinerary included visits to ports in St Vincent, St Lucia, Dominica, Guadeloupe, Antigua, the Dominican Republic, Aruba, Curaçao and Grenada.

This log records one passenger medevac. No death or additional injury connected with the medical emergency was reported in the available account.
