Journalist Alessandro Ursic reports.


After 16 days locked down on the Carnival Corp cruise ship in Japan's Yokohama Port, around 200 Australian passengers will finally return home.

A Qantas flight from Japan on Wednesday will retrieve the Australians stranded on the Diamond Princess ship since 3 February, as a result of a passenger being diagnosed with the infectious coronavirus.
