Have you seen the results of this Cruise Critic survey? Seems like the majority of respondents are all-in on the COVID restrictions. “In general, the survey respondents embraced the safety measures that cruise lines have already put in place, with the majority saying there were no “deal breakers” for them to return to the seas.”
“Only 24 percent said that a mask requirement would keep them from boarding. The vast majority of cruisers were fine with mandated vaccines, pre-boarding COVID testing, contact tracing and reduced-capacity sailings.”

To me, reduced-capacity sailings is going to be the future of Cruise lines. They won’t fill all their present ships and the big 3, CARNIVAL-ROYAL- NORWEGIAN, will have to reduce the size of their fleets. Time will tell.
My personal experience with about a dozen cruisers isn’t as optimistic for the Cruise Lines as the Cruise Critic survey. -Tom
