smokeybandit Posted March 24, 2021 #3 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I guess that explains the clia statement , though the CDC comments are probably in response to the clia Edited March 24, 2021 by smokeybandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dswallow Posted March 24, 2021 #6 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Just now, smokeybandit said: The CDC reiterated it today though. Unless they also said something like "it will not be renewed longer and cruising can resume at that time" then this is nothing different from RCCL currently stating that they plan to resume cruises on June 1, 2021. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disapproval, per se, simply questioning the nature of the "news" as not news at all, just some news channel drone getting a quote from the CDC, as part of reporting on the CLIA statement, who simply restates all the current/prior notices because there's nothing new they're allowed to say. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djsmrs Posted March 24, 2021 #11 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Just so I understand - the order prevents any cruise ship from sailing to/from the US until that date? Or is it possible that under the order they may allow ships to begin test sailings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it's possible they may allow it, but it's also been said the cdc hasnt told the cruiselines details they need to start anything from here. Until then cdc gives details, cruises seems stuck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelicanBill Posted March 24, 2021 #15 Share Posted March 24, 2021 In theory this was all about a process by which cruise lines could get conditional permission to sail. The cruise lines claim the CDC has stalled on the details of what they must do to get that condition permission. Based on the timelines for test sailing and 60 day advance request to resume sailing, we are already at a point that best case we'd have cruises restart in July. But we see no motion. So most of us lean toward August as the earliest possible. And that's for the first few ships and ports. Later for the rest. November....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare orville99 Posted March 24, 2021 #17 Share Posted March 24, 2021 If this was a duel, the two sides are just at the "Glove slap to the face" stage. They haven't decided on choice of weapons, who will be seconds, and where the duel will ultimately take place (my best guess is federal court). This a long way from settled. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toad455 Posted March 24, 2021 #19 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Cruise lines will resort to sailing from any Caribbean island that can support home porting a ship.

BSocial Posted March 24, 2021 #23 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) Maybe all these summer cruises from Nassau and Bermuda can qualify as CDC “test” cruises. Did the CDC’s CSO stipulate the test cruises had to be from a US Port? also, IF (and its a BIg IF) the CDC just lets the CSO expire, do cruise lines have to then schedule Coast Guard Inspections, etc, wonder what the timing will be from Nov 1 to the first revenue cruises from US Ports.

I'm pretty sure they were supposed to be non revenue with volunteers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong but I thought these were cdc inspections, not coast guard inspections. As some questioned of the cdc could handle the inspections.
