The key word Biker had on his question was "all". So as Jack also noted Adventure and Navigator have not sailed in that region or transited the Suez Canal.

SeaHunt Posted May 30, 2020 #286 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Article about Belizean crew members arriving in Belize on RCI ship (doesn't say which one): Belize’s borders remain closed but on Saturday, a first group of Belizeans to be allowed to re-enter Belize due to the COVID-19 pandemic arrived on a Royal Caribbean ship. Belize remains COVID free for forty-five days, so protocols are in place to prevent any imported case by sea, air and land. The group of nationals was on the vessel for more than seventy days and Saturday was the first time they set foot on land. They were immediately placed on quarantine and will remain that way for fourteen days.

suzyluvs2cruise Posted May 31, 2020 Author #287 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Many crew have to quarantine when they arrive in their home country.....and at their own expense. We're in contact with an Asst. Waiter from Kenya. She has been onboard since the start of this. She is on Freedom waiting...and waiting...and waiting and hoping to fly home on a charter by Thursday. Then she'll go into quarantine at $80 day x 14 days = $1440. This has got to be hard for crew to afford. Especially when many aren't being paid waiting to go home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably sticking around the local area for now, as it looks majesty will be doing. Currently it says she will be going to “unknown coastal” which is what Allure was showing when she was just sitting around of the south/west coast of England and popping back into Southampton every week or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
