Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line has chartered the Grand Celebration to assist with the restoration of service to communities impacted by the recent Massachusetts gas incident, according to a statement.

The 1987-built ship will sail to Boston on Oct. 1 to provide housing for those working to restore service to thousands of homes.

The company announced the Oct. 1 sailing aboard the 1,600-guest Grand Celebration as well as the Oct. 2 cruise on the 1,300-guest Grand Classica are both cancelled.

The Grand Classica will instead pick up its two-night program on Oct. 3, taking over the Grand Celebration’s cruise schedule for October and November.

The Grand Celebration will resume its normal two-night program from West Palm Beach in December, the company said.

Bahamas Paradise previously chartered the ship to FEMA for hurricane relief efforts in 2017.
