Since the cruise ships on an April etc. start up will probably be at 60% passengers this won't have that big an impact IMHO,as a lot of Americans can fill the ships.
When the summer comes, which is the busiest cruise season, if this restriction is left in place, the CDC will further cripple the foreign flagged Cruise industry's comeback toward solvency.
"What is more likely is that cruises leaving from the US would be out of the question for anyone not in the United States. Not only would four different tests be a strain on the passengers, but it would also be a strain on the entire infrastructure."
I wonder what the new Biden administration thinks of this? -Tom
Screw thus stupid bug. It’s a scam
The Covid bullshit business now is on the order of $1 trillion a year and climbing
They created it out of nothing it’s a simple flu bug
In my opinion conservatives should completely remain out of the system and starve the beast
The new Biden administration reflects the outlook of the ‘Karens’ who believe 100% safety is the only acceptable objective.
Money talks and ideology walks.
In a third world nation (yup, that is us now) bribery makes _anything_ possible.
Each industry will figure it out eventually...
In the Bahamas, there is no one on the beach, no one at any of the outdoor bars, very few shops are open, the bath water is rusty and smells.
Who wants to go on vacation when you are reminded to put on your mask as you go to and from the beach?
Also the ships are not at full passenger capacity right now due to ‘social distancing’...Carnival is 50-60% so a 2,000 passenger ship only needs about 1,200 to be fill...
I fear you are correct,
Us Americans have been living a "Paralysis by Analysis" life style since Covid -19 became championed by our incompetent CDC. -Tom
This is the Xiden daysways of controlling businesses.
Pay us or go out of business. My son Humper will handle all negotiations.
Plus Emperor Joe plans to haqnd us back over to the WHO so even if the CDC finally lets us cruise the WHO probably wont...
Also under the WHO they’ll demand that our American tax payer bought vaccines will be ‘shared’ by the more worthy 3dt world before evil racist Americans ...
So if theres a requirement for the vaccine to cruise/travel, soon there won t be any available...
after all as everyone knows cruising is only for greedy rich white men...
“Our CDC may keep this restriction on into the summer and further delay cruising.”
How do they get the authority?
That is how the "Karens" were fooled and exploited in 2020 by CDC in conjunction with the leftist party.
Yes covid-19 is risky for people with health issues. But not for healthy individuals under age 60. And that is 97% of workers who go to work every day in non-managerial positions. For those 97% covid-19 is no more lethal than bad flu attack, eBola, drug resistant TB, HIV, yellow fever, plague, or driving under the influence or texting.
When I first started cruising, there were so many more "merry widows" than older men on the cruise, that the cruise lines hired older men to be onboard, to dance with the older unmarried women.
In the last few years I notice a change in that statistic and that the men seem to be living longer, and no older men hired by the cruise lines to dance with the older women. -Tom
It doesn't seem to spell out what documentation of recovery would consist of.
“Yes covid-19 is risky for people with health issues. But not for healthy individuals under age 60.”
Ordinary seasonal flu is risky for people with health issues. How much worse is the ‘rona?
“For those 97% covid-19 is no more lethal than bad flu attack, eBola, drug resistant TB, HIV, yellow fever, plague”
Eh? Ebola, TB, yellow fever, and plague are farging deadly.
Karen Bidet is going to ruin everything, not just cruising this coming year.
Out at Sea is a movie about men being hired to dance with those merry Widows etc LOL
