Creator's Key Takeaways

U.S. citizens, particularly travelers with underlying health conditions, should not travel by cruise ship

I probably wouldn't cancel it. I'd probably sit back and wait and see what the cruise line does with your booking

If you choose to go on a cruise when you get home you should self quarantine and not go to work for 14 days

I truly believe that cruising is one of the safest forms of travel for me and for my family

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check your employer's policy on self-quarantine after cruising
Expect longer boarding delays due to health screenings
Bring snacks and water for potential delays
Consider your personal health and age when deciding to cruise
