CRUISE NEWS - CARNIVAL CHANGES DRINK POLICY AGAIN, $.25 DRINKS, PRINCESS CRUISE SHIP DENIED ENTRY
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides several updates regarding the cruise industry, beginning with a change to Carnival Cruise Line's beverage policy. Following a previous decision to stop pre-cruise liquor bottle sales to better manage alcohol consumption, Carnival has implemented a compromise. Passengers on cruises lasting seven days or longer may now purchase one bottle of alcohol for their stateroom. The report also covers the Grand Princess, a Princess cruise ship that was denied entry to the port of Newcastle, Australia, due to the number of virus cases on board. Moving to ship reviews, the creator evaluates the Carnival Celebration, noting that the vessel successfully delivers on the promise of big ship entertainment and diverse food options. Additionally, the video describes a busy day in Costa Maya, where 15,000 passengers arrived from four different ships. Finally, the creator highlights an upcoming 150th anniversary celebration cruise by Holland America Line. This 13 day itinerary retraces the company's original route from New York City to the Netherlands and will feature a special happy hour where adult beverages are priced at 25 cents to honor historical pricing.
