I hope cruise  companies and Airlines are forced to make the circulated air and the airconditioner in cabins more safe as the poor people on the "ships in the news "suffered more than they should have.

Even way before this current cruise line shutdown, we have observed numerous questionable guest behaviors & onboard procedures.  Pls don't take this personally if you still enjoy these activities, but just for us, we don't get into the hot tubs, pools, steam rooms, etc. anymore, since my spouse considers them cesspools for germs & other nastyness.  There are numerous guest behaviors that grossed us out, esp in the buffet, gym, theater, & other large gatherings.  For example:

- buffet:  both adults & kids directly touching food items then put it back, without using tongs;  how many people touch those tongs...?

- gym:  walking away from sweaty equipment without towel wipedown, spitting in water fountain

- theater:  openly coughing & sneezing, etc

Sorry, these are just a very few examples of gross behaviors that really need to change, esp after this shutdown is done

So what do you think new procedures the cruise lines will implement once they restart sailing again for better sanitation purposes?

I would guess:

- mini health inspection, ie: temperature scanner for fever, at embarkation, instead of just paper form stating you are fever free & no flu-like symptoms

- retrofit all ships with full hand washing stations instead of just Purell dispensers at buffet entrance

- staff will serve you food items from behind the counter in the buffet, instead of you self-serve food items with tongs

- limit number of persons in hot tubs, & must shower before entering

- eliminate steam rooms

- more antiseptic wipes in the gym

- no more self serve ice cream dispensers, only served by staff at certain hours

 

What are your ideas...?

I agree with you 100% .I would like to see crew that are sick or unwell not working-eg I have been in the bufftet where a waiter sneezed into his sleeve and wiped his nose on his jacket .I get very upset when people(passengers and crew) sneeze on the food or people in a que.

I would like people to keep a social distance away in all eating areas and the gym as there are some really bad mannered people about in all cruises.

We just booked the transfers from Southampton to Heathrow. $59US. Why hassle with the luggage with the busses/trains?
