    The CDC lost me at wear two masks.  
    In hindsight that should have been a red flag that cruising would never happen.
    Twenty or thirty years ago it may have been a respected agency that had a purpose.  Those days are over.

    Royal needs to step up it's plan for Grand Bahamas.
    Rid itself of the CDC and VSP in one stroke.  
    A high speed ferry or flight from any state bypassing the various crazy governments in it's way.  Our governments are too busy trying to out-stupid each other.

    I've come to sad realization there will be no cruising from the US until the public health emergency is over.
    I'll be surprised if the FL court case changes the outcome and the CDC is clearly far out of touch.  The CSO was never meant to allow cruising.  
    I'll do that one better.  
    The CSO is going to be extended, if it can be.
    So long as there is a public health emergency the CDC will stop all US based cruising.
    If anyone desires to cruise, look beyond the shores of the US.

    I can see the cruise lines trying a simulated voyage and maybe even offering one ship using a 98/95 rule from somewhere other than Florida. 
    They need to show investors they tried.  
    I expect no simulated voyage to pass on the first attempt.  The CDC will find something at fault.

    From all the Broadway shows the Chicago show is the one with the simplest set , mostly chairs as far as I remember ? therefore it's the cheapest one to add to a new ship .

    Waiting to see what Adventure's protocols may be before jumping on board for later in the Bahama cruise season.
    I can take useless protocols for a couple of days and will comply for a short cruise but a full week of unnecessary protocols may exceed my tolerance for absurdity so better not to book until I see how they will operate Adventure.

    I was thinking about this yesterday.  Originally I was thinking Royal will want to show the FCDC it is capable of implementing stringent protocols but now I'm not so sure there is any value or purpose to this approach.
    The FCDC is steadfast in using year old protocols based on no vaccines so now I'm thinking Royal may be best served by using common sense protocols because nothing they do with influence the FCDC in a good or bad way.  The FCDC can't see anything with their heads stuck up their...

    The solo 340 discount is a trap.  Once achieved it makes it very hard to sail another line solo because Royal is almost always cheaper.
