The US Coast Guard is setting up a special safety zone around the harbour of the US Virgin Island of St Thomas for a port call by Oasis of the Seas, the world\'s biggest cruise ship.
The Royal Caribbean\'s 16-deck ship will arrive in St Thomas tomorrow morning.
It will travel from the company\'s private Labadee port in northern Haiti, on its maiden voyage.
A Coast Guard spokesman, Captain Eduardo Pino, says other boats will be barred from traveling or anchoring within the no-go zone, while the massive cruiser is entering and exiting the port.
