Thursday February 5, 8:32 am ET MIAMI, Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Royal Caribbean International's Majesty of the Seas experienced a brief 21-minute galley fire early this morning. The fire caused minor damage and no guests or crew members were harmed in any way and the ship is sailing safely. The fire, caused by a deep fat fryer, began at 4:47 a.m. in the ship's Windjammer Cafe on the tenth deck, aft. Crew members fully extinguished the fire by 5:08 a.m. As a precaution, the ship's Master asked guests to move to their muster stations for 24 minutes. The fire and its related smoke caused minor damage to the Windjammer's galley area. The ship will continue its current sailing, however, the cafe, which is used for casual dining, will be closed and service will be moved to other dining areas.

I agree with you Dick! Hopefully they announced it was precautionary.
Can't imagine trying to feed all those people with the Windjammer Buffet closed.
