More than 200 travelers on a cruise ship were forced to disembark after fuel expenses severely disrupted the voyage, according to reporting from Al Jazeera and CBS News.

Al Jazeera reported that 203 individuals were made to leave a U.S. cruise liner because of escalating fuel expenses. According to CBS News, the travelers—predominantly American citizens—ended up stranded in Cambodia after the operator of the luxury liner declared it had depleted its funds as fuel prices soared.
