What to Know About Cruising During the Pandemic,

According to Experts

As cruises prepare to depart from the U.S. again this summer, COVID-
19 cases are already appearing on ships. Here's what to know before
booking a cruise, according to medical and travel experts.

In February 2020, the world watched with trepidation as a virus we


knew so little about spread throughout a Japanese Diamond Princess
cruise ship. Just weeks later, an outbreak hit the Grand Princess off
the San Francisco coast and passengers were held on board as they
were tested for the still-mysterious coronavirus. By the middle of
March 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
implemented a No-sail Order, forcing the entire cruise industry to
come to an abrupt halt. It was clear that cruise ships were an early
breeding ground for the spread of the disease.

Now, with the distribution of vaccines and American COVID-19


numbers being reined in, cruise companies are moving ahead with
plans for summer sailings from the U.S., while still awaiting the CDC's
approval. After all, the government agency's current advisory for all
cruise travel is still at a Level 4 "Very High Level of COVID-19."
