CRUISE NEWS - CRUISE LINE DROPS PRE-CRUISE TESTING, ROYAL EASES PROTOCOLS, CANADA TESTING CHANGES
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides several updates regarding changing protocols within the cruise industry. First, the small cruise line Uncruised announced it will discontinue pre-cruise testing on March 25, a move the creator suggests may eventually be followed by larger cruise lines. Second, the creator discusses expected changes in Canada, noting that the government may soon announce that vaccinated travelers will no longer require testing to enter the country by land or air. Third, Royal Caribbean is relaxing its vaccine protocols, allowing unvaccinated passengers to participate in shore excursions freely in most locations, though certain ports like Barbados and Jamaica still require ship sponsored tours. Finally, the creator transitions into a lighthearted comparison of cruise ship food, specifically evaluating the secret chicken sandwich at CocoCay against the Shaq's Big Aristotle sandwich found on the Carnival Mardi Gras. The video concludes with a call for viewer engagement regarding these industry updates and food preferences.
