My concern is how the Cruise Line responds to a covid outbreak, because they have to fill their ships and make money to pay of their crushing debt.
I believe Norwegian Cruise line has not responded correctly to this outbreak and will damage their recovery. -Tom
Worse: most worked in the ICU.
Sign of the times: they were fully vaxxed
Where do they get their Crew ?
And yet we go after parents who sent their one child to school who had a positive test for it, whether the test was accurate or not.
One kid - 16 less cases than the cruise ship we arent supposed to worry about.

Who goes on “cruises”.....? Good grief, you’re just asking for trouble even in the best, most carefree of times. Why not just flush $5000 down the toilet?
My experience with cruise ship crews is they come from all around the world. -Tom
Shanghied out of the taverns in Shanghai. Where else?
People are still trying to force life back to normal, and I laud them for trying. But the globalists are not going to give up their shiny new Jr. Dictator Play Set that easily...

Capt Tom thank you as always for keeping us updated on cruising in the age of covid.
I’m curious, in what way do you think NCL has not responded correctly?
Amazing how they worry so about the sniffles when salmonella and botulism toxin ooze from every surface like miasma from ginger goebbels freckles
7 Dec: Express UK: End in sight? Light at end of pandemic tunnel as Europe’s biggest Omicron outbreak is MILD
By MILLIE COOKE
An omicron outbreak at an Oslo Christmas party - seen as “the biggest in the world outside of South Africa” - is only causing mild disease. Up to 120 people who attended a restaurant in Oslo on November 26th, for a party hosted by Norwegian energy company Scatec, have all tested positive for the virus. Roughly half of them screened positive for the omicron variant.
However, Oslo infectious disease doctor Tine Ravlo said that none of them are “severely ill”.
He said: “They have symptoms like fever, cough, headache, muscle pain, fatigue, but for now, none of them has become severely ill, and none of them have been treated in hospital.
“At that time, we didn’t really have that many restrictions in Oslo, so they followed the rules.
“That is the hope. That is the best scenario we can have. That it’s getting milder, most people will get it, and they will get a natural immunity.”
If that were the case, he said, it might mark the beginning of the end for the Covid-19 pandemic...

One thing they did was added in a mask policy for people onboard except when they are eating or drinking.
That alone will discourage some people from going on that Norwegian ship. - Tom
It sounds like Omicron has a lower mortality rate than the flu.
One way they do it is by hiring shills like The Points Guy. Half of their posts in the middle of the pandemic were about how wonderful cruising is.
I understand the tendencies of the various cruise blogs to put a happy face on cruising. These blogs are reticent to speculate about anything like a potential cruise line bankruptcy. They will cover it - after the fact.
Every once in a while, I will post an article from a non- cruise source, to bring in a little reality.
The press will watch this ship like a hawk, hoping for another outbreak. -Tom
We go on 'Shiprocked' every year. It's a 5-day music festival on a boat with 30 hard rock bands and 3000 of your closest family members. It's amazing!
Omicron parties!
17 people......on a fully VACCINATED cruise.....but “nothing to see here.”
That kinda sounds like fun...although I'd probably be more worried about catching something worse than Covid on that ship, lol.
