The ship had set sail on April 26 from Port Canaveral, Florida, for a 10-day cruise to the Bahamas and Caribbean. To reach the Venezia's location, rescuers needed three air-to-air refuelings, the Air Force said.
Dramatic photos show the unnamed woman and her son being hoisted up into the helicopter from the ship's deck.
