Cruise Lines International Association, the cruise industry's leading trade organization, and its members, who carry 95% of the world's oceangoing cruisers, announced a mandatory "Core Elements of Health Protocols," that includes crew and passenger testing, mask wearing, enhanced cruise ship ventilation, stringent response procedures and shore excursion protocols.

The cruise industry can do all the right things (and I hope that they do)...we like to cruise on the small ships and have done that close to a dozen times, however we're not flying somewhere to cruise again until we've had a covid-19 vaccine

[Stu from NYC]

We have no intention to wear a mask on a cruise so until we have had a vaccine and feel safe to travel by air on a cruise no cruising for us

How are the cruise lines going to sell shore excursions and protect passengers from the local population. I can see rules being broken all the time to make some dollars.
