I’ve said from the beginning that the cruise line execs are stringing this out so that they can (mostly) legally get out of their stock positions. Without a vaccine, there can’t be a cruise business, that simple.
And from my first hand life's experiences, I see a golden opportunity for millions in fraud money to make it into the pockets of key Cruise Line individuals who saw the bankruptcy coming, and do some planning to feather their nests. -Tom
