Well, I have to give them credit, they aren't going to roll over and die. The way it appears to me though, regardless of whether governments give them the okay, all I see is that they are going to load up a ship, go to sea, get hit with the covid, then spend a small fortune getting the ship back into port and guests back home, then paying off all the costs incurred in the effort. Sad, very sad. But hey, coming from a coastal commercial fishing community, one of the first lessons one learns is to not piss into the wind. I'm afraid FDR and other cruise line wheels are doing exactly that:
"Yesterday Bloomberg discussed the intense lobbying being being performed by the cruise lines in Washington. Bloomberg writes that the Miami-based cruise lines have doubled the number of lobbyists they have sent to congressional offices and several federal agencies since the pandemic in order to lobby official to resume cruising this year. One of their favorites targets is the White House." https://www.cruiselawnews.com/2020/10/articles/disease/no-sail-order-the-cruise-industry-is-about-to-make-a-fatal-mistake-and-will-later-regret-it/?fbclid=IwAR0f-XFbDPch3Hhp84HiSSFcZA5yocthKZmHVB85FdeAhbNFAnb4NiEX99U
