New video captured the moment a Carnival cruise ship came to the aid of a group of migrants aboard a rustic vessel out at sea.
A passenger onboard the Carnival Celebration told NBC6 the rafters were spotted Saturday afternoon.
They said officials made an announcement to alert guests and then stopped to help until the U.S. Coast Guard arrived.
The tattered vessel was spotted about 20 miles north of Cuba as the cruise ship was headed back to Port Miami.
