Is this ban including already booked cruises?

I am sure Carnival will update the situation once they get clarification.

Citizens of other countries have been able to cruise to Cuba in the past. MSC used to operate cruises for non-US citizens. That is likely to continue.

Folks have been traveling to CUBA from everywhere else for years. Your point is valid. TRUMP can't tell foreign owned cruise lines where to port except here.....on the other hand, the ban could very well include anyone with a US passport...well thought out eh?

I wonder about itineraries originating outside the US. For example, Quebec to Cuba. And if it is only American owned Cruise Lines.

Thanks for that SARAH. I read several "inputs" but yours is clearly the best. However, its also clear the cruise industry is going to have to sort this out. If I had money tied up in a cruise to CUBA, I think I'd be exploring getting my money back. Theres nothing down there I'd want to lose a dollar or any sleep over...lots of places to go for sun n fun.

Just wrote this up, some details on already-booked cruises are here! - https://cruiseline.com/advice/what-s-hot/news/united-states-government-bans-cruises-to-cuba

Since no one here has access to the inner workings of Trumps mind, and since Im not related, I can say with certainty that no one knows. It seems that trips that were "already paid for" can be taken. That's not the same as "booked"... Several news outlets have reported that...on the other hand, folks can and do book cruises many months even years in advance. Several news outlets have contacted the biggest cruise lines, and no one seems to know. Were you booked on a Cuban cruise?

The thought occurs, none of the big lines are willing to run afoul of the President...you may find a lot of them cancelling cruises anyway...
