CDC Extends “No-sail” Order for Cruise Ships, Trouble with School Trip Refunds and More

April 10, 2020 By Nancy Leave a Comment

See our Advertiser Disclosure here.

Cruises Likely to be Canceled into July: Yesterday, the CDC extended its “no-sail” order for cruise ships. The extension is for 100 days unless the U.S. government deems the coronavirus is no longer a public threat. That puts the no-sail mandate into mid-July. The CDC is also demanding that cruise lines come up with a plan to “prevent, mitigate and respond” to coronavirus outbreaks on ships. See this post on TPG for all the details.

As an avid cruiser myself, I am glad that the CDC is demanding that cruise ships come up with a plan. I am not comfortable cruising in the immediate future unless some changes are made on board cruise ships, as I mentioned in a previous post.

Can Airport Health Screening Save Air Travel?: This is an excellent post by Greg from The Frequent Miler. I agree that health screenings/temperature checks will be the new normal. These must be combined with free flight changes and cancelations in order to fully work.

Miami Hotel Refuses to Refund School Trip Money: See this post on View From the Wing. This article is interesting to me because a group from my son’s high school is having issues getting money refunded from a choir trip that was supposed to happen later this month.

Airline and Hotel Status Extensions: If you have elite status at an airline or hotel, you may be in luck. Several have extended your status through 2021 due to lack of travel opportunities this year. See this post by Points With a Crew.
