Horizon chaser 1957 Posted September 26, 2020 #26 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I suspect that like so many amazing new devices, they will be installed, perform poorly and cause pandemonium for two days, and be switched off for the rest of the voyage. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancal Posted September 27, 2020 #27 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Exactly. Not just on HAL either. Take a look at some cruise line web sites or worse, their accounting systems, their on board customer IT systems, or their on board internet. Then consider whether they have the skills to implement something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money is king. If the CDC still has cruising locked down in the US while other parts of the world are sailing again, it changes the equation. HAL etc. will follow the dollars and sail out of the ports that allow them to have some sort of cash flow to survive. Better to sail with a reduced number of CC members among their passengers than with none at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The costs include both a fixed cost not depended upon the number of passengers and variable costs that depend upon the number of passengers. Revenue is mostly dependent upon the number of passengers. IOW, there is a lower limit on the number of passengers or the cruise line loses money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
