This has to be driven by the Bahamas. Carnival will no longer be able to exempt guests 12 and over unless they have a documented medical excuse. Looks like cruise industry is gradually being forced into very similar policies. 56 minutes ago, stellarose said: so now NCL and RCL went all 100% vaccinated over 12? 48 minutes ago, firefly333 said: I just barely read it.

It was announced today that no cruise ship can visit any island in the Bahamas if they have anybody over 12 on board that is not vaccinated. ALL cruise lines must abide by this policy. So, Nassau, Freeport, Bimini and many private islands would be included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Past 5 year annual reports. There per diem daily to break even was averaging 48.7% guest capacity at double occupancy per ship, per sailing on cruises 5-8 days. Which is there sweet spot. Food cost, docking fees, bunkering ect are variable costs. Brew12 was spot on that post. “The profits will come later”. The trick is sailing smart to avoid a shutdown. They can survive. But only by reducing the head count until this calms down. Even if this costs them short term in cancelations. I don't think I'm going to count the number of errors in your post, but will highlight one or two. Carnival Corp consists of a number of cruise lines and does not release individual cruise line data. You can infer nothing from the annual report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct...vaccinated or you are not getting onboard. They don't care about religion, medical reasons, age, or anything. If you are not vaccinated, you don't cruise with them. Their crew is 100% vaccinated and so are the passengers. I applaud them for that. Too much work to manage 2-10 sets of different rules. Make everyone the same and only 1 set of rules needs to be followed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The easy answer is for them to go to Beaches or other family oriented all inclusives. Or try their luck with other cruise lines and hope to get exemptions.

We did adults only AI's in the Riviera Maya last July and again this past June in Punta Cana. Back in cruise mode now, with 2 booked this year, 9 in 2022 and 4 in 2023, totalling 114 nights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be expected, anticipated, and effectively dealt with by the immune response in the person who was vaccinated. And the virus is airborne, so transmission is likely. The entire point of getting vaccinated is turning a potentially lethal (or seriously debilitating) illness into a mild one where your body can fight it off by itself (ETA- and NOT to prevent infection in the first place, as that is not possible with an airborne virus...). I totally agree unfortunately that is not the way its being treated and until we can revamp our thinking about this virus things will not get better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
