Interesting thought, but no. Not even a little bit. They have no place to cruise TO, and there's a "small" holdup at the CDC, and a lil something called "liability", and on and on and on...These co's have taken on TENS OF BILLIONS of new debt. If all it took to get them to sail was installing s/a filters, they'd all be out there...The ONLY thing that's going to save this industry is some kind of world-wide vaccination program...and THATS pie-in-the-sky....

Well that was for Europe, IF the article was accurate, and they haven't officially adopted it yet...but I can see it coming...its a great way to shift the liability from the cruise lines to the md's isn't it?....what responsible md is going to issue a hall pass to a senior with those "underlying conditions"???? thats a whole different issue than what the cruise ships will "look like" in this brave new world...spend 2-3-5-10K on a cruise to be harassed and put up with this stuff..............??????

Masks will leave awful tan-lines

There is no way I am vacationing in a mask. If it keeps up, we'll forego cruising and opt for inclusive resorts and/or expedition travel.

The EU published their recommendations to restart cruising. Here's a link to their recommendations. Masks and social distancing are included (not surprised).
The thing probably deserves its own thread...Actually reading the "shortened version" is leading me to the conclusion that sadly, cruising will become so "unsocial" as to become not worth the $$ or the hassle. Besides, they're desperate to start the "income stream" again...altho I don't think EUROPE is going to welcome any Americans for quite awhile anyway.
