Royal Caribbean Will Sail in May - Cruise Ship News
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator discusses Royal Caribbean's decision to launch the Odyssey of the Seas in May. While the cruise line has canceled North American sailings for that month, the new Quantum Ultra class ship will begin operations in Israel. The itinerary includes voyages from Israel to the Greek Islands and Cyprus. The creator notes that Israel is a primary choice for this launch due to its high vaccination rate, which stands at approximately 93.5 percent. This specific cruise will require both the crew and the passengers to be vaccinated. The creator suggests that this model serves as a potential blueprint for future cruise operations in other regions once vaccination rates reach similar levels. The video concludes that while North American travelers might resist such mandates, they could become a standard requirement for cruise lines and other forms of travel to ensure safety and prevent future shutdowns.
