The apology was sent by Villa Vie Residences CEO and founding partner Kathy Villalba on Friday, October 30, 2026, through Circle, the ship's internal messaging platform. It came after the Odyssey halted operations in Sihanoukville, Cambodia, on October 27. Business Insider reported that the message was deleted from the platform within hours, so it isn't posted anywhere on Micwyn or in public archives I could find.
The reporting quotes its opening lines, which say she was sorry for the pain, loss and uncertainty residents face. It also includes the line "The ship was my baby, but it was your home." Jingletree republished the Business Insider text, and The Traveler covered the deletion and the anger it caused. Those are the best places to read what was reported.
I couldn't find the full text in a source I can quote here, so I've given you the reporting rather than reproducing it.
