Yes, I think that was hinted at in the mention of 6 helicopters but not specified.

The evacuation of a cruise liner has been long debated in the Falklands since they can have 2000 people or more on them - there are only very limited numbers of helicopters in the FI so it is just as well the S92s were there.

I presume they were used for winching and not just transferring pax from Cape Dolphin to MPA.
