It's unfortunate to see commentary degrading 'anti-vaxxers' as many that have chosen vaccination, like to call someone like myself. I'm fully aware that some people for medical or other reasons are to unable to receive the vaccine. I never used the term anti-vaxxer to refer to that group or any other group that chose not to get vaccinated for whatever reason. Sorry the NV joke offended you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberty is scheduled (supposedly) for Cadiz technical dry dock in July; wouldn’t make sense to schedule her for a test cruise until she returns. Why wouldn't they do the Dry Dock over the last year when they couldn't sail. Seems like they missed the boat (ha ha) there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkinmr Posted May 27, 2021 #171 Share Posted May 27, 2021 7 hours ago, boatseller said: That order only applies when traveling in, out, or within the United States. If them meant to cover then entire voyage, the language would have to be more specific. Well, the CDC could be as linguistically illiterate as they are scientifically illiterate. Who knows at this point. So very wrong. The CSO applies to the cruise ship for the entire duration of the sailing, whether within US waters or not. It's because of the legal concept of "free pratique". If the ship intends to reenter US waters and request to dock and disembark passengers at a US port they must abide by all federal regulations during the duration of the cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no. They only specified arrival at the foreign port. Not the entire duration. The guidance was was written with a clear bias toward air travel and I've seen FA vlogs where they venture out following only local protocols. Either way, as I predicted, the CDC is relenting faster than the Germans in 1947. They just announced no masks required on vaxed cruises. Just wait a couple weeks and they'll give up on the mixed cruise requirement also. Here's your last opportunity to give up while I'm ahead. The CDC has no data to backup even a short term weather forecast. Happy cruising! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you're saying, but apparently this isn't what is actually happening. And as noted, the CDC has already relented on the mask guidance so… They know they're backed into a corner. They're just trying to save face. If they had even the slightest clue what they were doing, the guidance would not be changing on a daily basis. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
