I hope this causes the Australians to be more compassionate and caring than they were with the other cruise ships they refused to allow to dock in Australia.

Autralia is going to have a cruise ship problem mirroring ours, since so many cruise ships leave from Australia and have had many passengers come down with covid19. -tom

Australia refused to allow Princess ships to dock. Told them to go back where they came from. Karma’s a bitch.

Where does a cruise ship go if Australia turns it away? (New Zealand? Singapore?)

It's not like the ship could keep a shoreline in sight until it reaches the next possible port.
