The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has rebuffed calls by the cruise industry to restart operations from U.S. ports, instead keeping current prohibitions in place through the summer travel season.
Provided by The Motley Fool CDC Keeps Cruise Restrictions in Place Until Nov. 1 The CDC said Wednesday that restrictions placed on the cruise lines last year to counter the spread of the pandemic will remain in effect until Nov. 1. The statement comes just hours after a trade group representing the cruise industry called on the CDC to lift the restrictions and allow for the planning of a phased resumption of operations from U.S. ports beginning in July.

And unfortunately it means no American hotel stays, or American restaurant meals, or American Taxi type service to get to the cruise ship, and no American longshoremen types of jobs at the Cruise dock.
And I would imagine in some of the Lines American workers will have to be relocated to these foreign ports or let go if locals are hired.
And it will be more difficult for our ambulance chasing lawyers to be at the docks when the cruise ships return to a foreign port. -Tom

All the better to hurt DeSantis/Florida.
Truly sickening. Not surprising.
Why not just require tests prior, and maybe mid trip, and masks, like the airlines are doing (not mid-trip, of course)?
And, build out designated quarantine rooms...then, allow the infected ... or, whoever wants to....to disembark, at the next stop. Well, that is....if that port/town/country will accept them.
Hmmmm....maybe therein lies the problem. 🤔
Maybe just sign a waiver, to board, saying you will not hold cruise line liable, should you contract the China flu...or ANY flu, while on board. Sort of an enter at your own risk waiver.
How to they handle Legionnaire’s - and, other potential, on-baord-diseases liability?

That' why they are foreign flagged to avoid litigious people like us Americans who will sue if there is a prospect of a monetary reward.
An admiralty court shouldn't care if you got sick on an ocean going vessel unless the company deliberately harmed you. -tom
Just further economic destruction by the commie in thieves.
About 4pm today I got an EMail from Carnival...the final payment date for June cruises has been moved from April 16 to April 30...Mine is June 6...
and Carnival said they hadnt decided about a port outside the US which means they are thinking about it...
I hope they do...;
However they did mention vaccines...
The CSO Conditional Sailing Order dated Oct 30 from the CDC is in affect for one year until Nov 1, 2021...
The cruise lines could buy a lot of seats and offer flight specials to the passengers...they do for Europe and San Juan...it includes a night in a nice hotel before the cruise...
“About 4pm today I got an EMail from Carnival...the final payment date for June cruises has been moved from April 16 to April 30...Mine is June 6...”

Cheaper than a nursing home, as they say. Probably safer too if the nursing home option is NY.
“Where do they get Nov 1 as a target date?”
Reached behind them and pulled it out of their ... you know where.
If you have a speculum, a flashlight, and a camera, we’ll stream that answer on the interwebs.
The Mardi Gras is still in Barcelona...Carnival should have cruises out of there or Civitavecchia (Rome)...other cruise lines are operating in Europe now...MSC etc
The CSO of the CDC doesnt end until then...
Carnival has stated they will not move their ships OUT of this country ,but they have ships already outside this country, so they can MOVE those ships, outside the USA, around the world to avoid our CDC regulations.
Since the Carnival Mardi Gras is anticipating Caribbean cruises perhaps a port like Cozumel might be considered, since if they get the USA go ahead they can homeport in Florida quickly, which was their original intention. -Tom
From where?
A certain sphincter.
Especially if they think it will hurt DeSantis.
