Following two years of warnings about the threat of contracting COVID-19 while onboard a cruise, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has lifted its risk advisory for cruise ship travel, leaving it up to the vacationers to choose whether they feel safe going on a journey.
“While cruising will continuously represent some danger of COVID-19 transmission, voyagers will make their own gamble evaluation while deciding to go on a luxury ship, similar as they do in each and every other travel settings,” the agency said in a statement.
The move, which came at a time when persons were considering their summer vacation plans, was welcomed by cruise ship operators across the country.
