So Sad!!! https://cruisefever.net/cruise-line-cancels-caribbean-cruises-through-january-2021/?fbclid=IwAR0yHWGEoTNmFkm0NW_7aUCA-ddQ7ehY_fJCck67PnPGo0axJb4WHzhPPw8

What will eventually happen is that RCG, IF they were smart, will start home-porting from Nassau, Bermuda or even Barbados, just like SeaDream does and even Carnival leaves from Barbados. This, can also be a short term solution until the CDC and everyone else gets their act together. I'm sure that everyone would fly out to any of these destinations to catch a RCG cruise. Raise your hands if you would fly out to a caribbean/Atlantic port to catch a RCG cruise ship?

Fascination - scrapped. Sensation - will take over itineraries already scheduled aboard Carnival Fantasy and Fascination. Sunrise - still pending on what Carnival is doing with this one.

And your thoughts??? https://www.costacruises.com/cruising-soon-again/safety-above-all.html?fbclid=IwAR1QltEoW4e7JlbtYG-rQdtZXX9fOWpRQyQ5s0J5wQ_i3d0SN7ODg8tasRE

OK guys...you are confusing the Jones Act which restricts the waterborne transportation of goods from one U.S. point to another to vessels that are U.S.-flagged, U.S.-built and at least 75 percent U.S.-owned and crewed with the Passenger Vessel Service Act which No foreign vessels shall transport passengers between ports or places in the United States, either directly or by way of a foreign port, under a penalty of $200 [now $762] for each passenger so transported and landed. AND both can be waived by Presidential Executive Order which Trump waived the Jones Act for Puerto Rico, easing Hurrica

That's why "finagling the itineraries" by the cruise lines will be important as they're Northbound cruises to Alaska leaving from San Diego. They can hit Ensenada in a couple of hours.

Ships that leave the Seattle/San Diego/Los Angeles sailing Northbound can touch Ensenada which will satisfy the Passenger Vessel Service Act requiring that a foreign-flagged vessel stop at a foreign port and continue Northbound and do it Southbound as well. Just a matter of cruise lines finagling the itineraries.
