CRUISES LINE SKIP PORT BECAUSE OF VIOLENCE, HOLLAND TESING UPDATE, CRUISE NEWS
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator discusses recent updates regarding cruise line protocols and safety decisions in Mexico. Disney Cruise Line has updated its vaccination requirements, stating that children aged 11 and under are no longer required to be vaccinated for sailings out of Canada and the United States, though the company still recommends it. Holland America has also adjusted its testing policies for sailings of 15 nights or less, though certain itineraries like Panama Canal transits still require testing. The video also addresses recent civil unrest in the Tijuana area involving blockades and violence. Due to this situation, the Carnival Radiance and Navigator of the Seas canceled their scheduled stop in Ensenada and returned to Los Angeles to ensure passenger safety. The creator notes that Carnival provided guests with onboard credits and future cruise credits to compensate for the missed port. While the unrest has led to the deployment of the National Guard in the area, the creator suggests that cruise lines may divert to alternative ports like Cabo San Lucas or Puerto Vallarta if the situation persists.
