If they are only doing cruises to nowhere over there until June then that pretty much eliminates any May and June sailings everywhere else in the world. 

Since the ship cancelled its Alaskan season, it needs to do "something"...

Dear Guest,

 

As you may be aware, our industry’s situation remains quite fluid. Despite this, we’re making some positive leaps towards a return to sailing; leaps like our Healthy Sail Panel collaboration, partnerships with multiple medical experts and health organizations, and the launch of Quantum of the Seas’ successful Singapore sailings. Now that 2021 is here, we’re looking forward to welcoming guests back onboard the rest of our fleet.

 

Following her Singapore season, Quantum of the Seas was set to offer Alaska sailings from April 2021. However, to allow additional time for our preparation, Quantum will remain in the Asia-Pacific region. As a result, we’re suspending our 2021 Alaska sailings onboard Quantum of the Seas departing April 25^th to September 27^th, 2021. Regrettably, your sailing will be cancelled.

 

We’re terribly sorry for the impact to your vacation. Our primary goal continues to be a seamless and healthy return to service; we’re hyper-focused on welcoming you back! As mentioned, we’ve assembled the “Healthy Sail Panel” - a multifaceted team of globally recognized experts. The panel continues to work alongside our new Public Health & Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Calvin Johnson, to pioneer innovative ways to guide the cruise industry’s way forward in the pandemic. It goes without saying, we’re all in this together.

My point was, if they are only doing 3/4 day sailings to nowhere for all of May / June then it really doesn’t give much hope for other areas in the world.  Had they switched to doing longer cruises with port stops I might think there was a chance of other sailings opening up.  They are still risking baby steps over there despite sailing since December.
