CDC to Finally Allow Cruise Ships to Start Sailing Again
After more than a year of forcing cruise ship operators to remain in port, and facing a lawsuit from the state of Florida over its "arbitrary and capricious" decision not to lift its conditional sail order, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control told cruise lines Wednesday evening they could begin sailing again by mid-July under a new set of relaxed guidelines.
The Wall Street Journal reports the agency will allow voyages to begin so long as the operators attest at least 98% of their crew and 95% of their passengers have been vaccinated.
