Suzez Posted April 2, 2020 #2326 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Just thinking about the Princess ship due in on 4th. The UK passengers will need a flight home. Maybe they will all go together on the same flight do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon in AZ Posted April 2, 2020 #2328 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Watching the webcams and see the beach cam just spanned out to show both ships. Wonderful sight to see them headed for port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I don't think it's an apt comparison. The USA was not on lockdown due to a deadly virus then and, since I visited a Holocaust museum in Florida in February during which the tour guide specifically talked about the St Louis episode, I don't recall him saying that the people aboard were in danger of killing anyone with a pandemic. (sorry, this is a bit off topic) I fully agree, very different circumstances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
