I was the worlds WORST flyer, at the age of 15 i was in a glider that almost crashed! Took me 15 yrs to fly again, Uk to spain just 3 or so hours but i hated every second of it. 
Best thing i did was book a trip to Orlando as the long haul flight helped me overcome a lot of my fears. 
Now ive been all over the world seeing places i could never have imagined seeing 🙂

"EU Announces Plan for Vaccine Passports."
It's coming. Cross boarder EU travel is going to be available at some point when objections to the discriminatory nature of these things either get sensibly over-come or simply rolled over despite those objections. It's not clear in the article how US citizens who have been vaccinated will be treated. Looks like for now, anyway, it's EU passport holders who will be getting the green light.

Would RC or any other private company be allowed to purchase vaccine before it is issued to those in need and at risk? 
I know a company in the UK tried it and got rejected, actually they got slaughtered in the press for even thinking it.
With regards PH most crew are young and healthy so they wont be top of the list for vaccine, and crews not just for RC come from many countries and every cruiseline will be in the same boat so to speak, Also there are over 7000 islands making up the Philippines so getting what vaccine they receive out to these places will take time. And lets not forget that in many so called 3rd world countries bribery and corruption is commonplace at the highest level so whos to say vaccines won't be sold on the black market? 
Getting crew to ship once they finally receive their vaccine will be another issue,  having to deal with whether countries are open what their quarantine regulations are etc
Then you have all the ports of call, where will cruiselines be able to sail to thats actually open to visitors
As mentioned in my 1st post there are so many issues still to be resolved , what will be will be, just got to take each day as it comes because constantly talking, studying or worrying about covid is depressing and in all honesty the constant talk of it probably causes more issues in relation to peoples health and wellbeing than covid would. 

Did they say what year though? 😆

I’ve never even heard of ‘em before

Did they say what year though? 😆

There are still a lot of issues to resolve so way i see it, it will happen when it happens. 
yes the sooner the better but no one wants short cuts to be taken when peoples safety is the priorty

I agree but didnt mention it due to the fact any time requiring vaccines, wearing masks or social distancing are mentioned it starts the old " im not getting a vaccine or wearing a mask" debate or my other favourite " i may as well stay at home if i have to do that" 
As i said previously what will be will be and we either follow the rules and get on with things best we can or we stay at home

Well if people do not want to be apart of a responsible society they can sit home without their masks. If they don't want the vaccine they can sit home and not cruise or vacation. That's the simply answer to those people.
