We should assist American citizens at minimum. We are evacuating citizens from the rest of the world so this should be no different.

Holland American has made proposals to solve the passenger problem. -Tom

From the article-
So far, the plan calls for arranging charter or charter-like flights out of Fort Lauderdale for passengers who need to be flown out of South Florida to international destinations and the West Coast, as well as transportation to the airport and passage through the airport so passengers don’t have contact with other travelers.

Those who have cars at Port Everglades would be allowed to drive home, and the cruise line would drive anyone who lives in South Florida but doesn’t have a car at the port back to their residence.

Has the fraction of Anti-Trumpers on board been determined?

I suspect that in a lot of those cases, we’re talking about expats who have been overseas for months or years.

This bunch chose to roll the dice, and lost.
