My contract is cancel, I am 9000 miles from home, what do I do, help me SW!

So excited for long time, 3 month contract on western carribean cruise, is cancel today! I am stuck now in Miami, do I try to go home to Taichung? I dont know is maybe the cruise to start again in April, but I think a lot of people say is not going to happen. Is no money for me for contract no job of course to do, and lot of money now to stay in hotel for this time or maybe just go home on flight I dont know!

What do I do!??!

@TaiduGirl Yaaay! You have been home for almost 2 weeks now, yes? How are you feeling?
TaiduGirl · 26-30, F
@funfan yes at home and feeling good is not so bad in Taiwan!
Talk to the cruise company. Given current circumstances, they may have resources to offer. Contact your embassy.

Check out lodging alternatives like Air B 'n' B.

Good luck!
I don't know anything about this organization, but it may be some help.

@Mamapolo2016 Thanks so much as well advising my friend Liya. In times like these, we all must help each other in any way possible. :)
@funfan Yes. Under it all we are human beings and that's who is in danger.

Go home if you can travel. But it's hard due to travelling restrictions caused due to corona virus. Just find a place to survive and get a small job untill things get sort out. Don't panick

@SW-User I couldn't have said it better

If I knew you better, I have a friend in Miami you could have stayed at.

I'm sorry you're stuck and this happened to you. Please be safe.

It's an unfortunate situation. I wish I was closer. I'd be willing to help you. Some of these other guys have good advice.
Go home. I think cruises will be deferred for some time. Go now before you run out of money..

I am sure the current USA president will help you get a flight home, lol. I would like you to stay. Shouldn't the cruiseline get you back home?

You should speak with either the embassy of your country or the Red Cross.
