Five galley crew members on Norwegian Cruise Line have been arrested trying to traffick seven kilos of cocaine into the US.
Investigators tracked the five men to a nearby hotel upon their disembarkation from Norwegian Sun during turnaround in Tampa, making the arrest on their return.
Authorities will allege the men picked up the haul during a port call in Honduras, concealing it in their underwear on re-boarding.
The five are in federal custody charged with drug smuggling.
