The request was made by the captain of Crystal Cruises’ Crystal Symphony after learning the American man was experiencing a health issue.

According to the paper, the evacuation took place near Punta Sur at Isla Mujeres.

The man was admitted to a local hospital in Cancun suffering from internal bleeding. He is listed in stable condition.

Earlier this year, a man had to be medevacked from a cruise ship near Isla Mujeres as well.

It’s just another example of why you always need to make sure you have travel insurance.
