Creator's Key Takeaways

easy answer is absolutely we are still going

i definitely feel more safer on the cruise ship

most of the positive cases were crew there were only a few passengers

if you are immunocompromised or you are in a high risk category then maybe you don't want to cruise right now

✓Weigh options if missing ports is a deal breaker for your cruise experience

✓Evaluate if entertainment is important to you, as shows may be canceled

✓Prepare for limited kids club access and have a backup plan

✓If immunocompromised or high risk, consider postponing until comfortable
