The Cruise Lines International Association has announced that all member cruise lines will extend cruise cancellations from US ports until at least September 15, 2020.
The CDC’s ‘no sail’ order is in effect until late July, but there is still much work to be done before large cruise ships can safely resume operations.
In a statement, the CLIA said: “Due to the ongoing situation within the US related to Covid-19, CLIA member cruise lines have decided to voluntarily extend the period of suspended passenger operations.
“The current no sail order issued by the CDC will expire on July 24, and although we had hoped that cruise activity could resume as soon as possible after that date, it is increasingly clear that more time will be needed to resolve barriers to resumption in the United States.”
