Royal Caribbean's Monarch of the Seas was forced to return to Port Canaveral hours after it left port because of a severe injury to a one year old.
Monarch of the Seas had initially left Port Canaveral at 4:30pm to head to the Bahamas when a 1-year-old crawled through an 11th floor railing and fell to a balcony one deck below.
At 7:30 p.m. the child was airlifted to Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children in Orlando.
There was no word on the child's condition.
