Creator's Key Takeaways

we need to get into a position where testing allows us to travel more and there aren't these silly blanket quarantines in place

the reality is it's complete rubbish and it doesn't help anything not if you're going to follow the letter of the law

i think it's a very positive story that as you know as a a client facing business we have to absolutely champion

the cruise lines are being very very open and very clear about what they're doing they're fulfilling all criteria
