WORRYING CRUISE NEWS UPDATE: CRUISE Act Blocked, Carnival's LNG, New Cruises, Alaska Sues & MORE!!
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides an update on several significant developments within the cruise industry, focusing on legislative and legal challenges in the United States. The Cruise Act, intended to facilitate the resumption of cruising, has been blocked in the Senate due to objections regarding safety protocols and the need for specific guidance from the CDC. Consequently, the Governor of Alaska has announced plans to join Florida in a lawsuit against the CDC and the federal government, arguing that the current shutdown exceeds legal authority and harms state economies. In addition to these legal matters, the video covers various industry expansions. Royal Caribbean has opened bookings for the Wonder of the Seas, which will feature a new suite neighborhood and sail in Asia. Aida is set to begin cruises in the Greek Islands starting in May 2021. Carnival Cruise Line has released a video detailing its use of liquefied natural gas to power new vessels like the Mardi Gras as part of environmental efforts. Finally, MSC Cruises has signed an agreement to begin sailing in Saudi Arabia, with ships utilizing Jeddah and the Persian Gulf as home ports.
