the controlled shore excursions means that we cant get off the ship at ports unless we are on a Carnival shore excursion and not every usual excursion will be offered...
The idea is to control the tourist companies at the ports and make sure they are following the CDC guidelines etc...
Does this mean that the excursions will be free or cheaper ???
Who knows ???
Hopefully passengers who stay on board wont be charged port fees...
And if you are too late in booking a ship approved excursion what do you do? Stay on the ship?
The casinos should be closed while the ship is in port.
A lot of cruisers like going to the casino.-Tom
