On 9 April 2020, The USA CDC (Center for Disease Control) issued an updated “no-sail cruise ban” for cruise lines and ships operating in and out fo USA ports and waters. This strong ruling suggests cruising will be prohibited in and out of the USA until at least 18 July 2020, and probably longer. The lift of the cruise ban is also subject to the CDC agreeing cruise lines proposal on how to address at least 7 major areas and issues, which could significantly change the facilities and way that cruising operates. In this video, I explore the ban including (1) how long the order looks to ban cruising, (2) why they are taking such a strong stance and (3) the 7 things that cruising have to address and convince them on before the cruising ban will be lifted.
