The cruise industry has voluntarily extended its pause on operations in US waters until 'at least' Oct. 31
The cruise industry has voluntarily suspended cruising in U.S. waters until"at least" Oct. 31, a month past the date the"We believe it is prudent at this time to voluntarily extend the suspension of U.S. ocean-going cruise operations to Oct. 31," Cruise Lines International Association, the major trade organization for ocean-going cruise lines, said in a statement provided by Bari Golin-Blaugrund, senior director of strategic communications.
But the extension comes with caveats. The restart date, Nov. 1, isn't set in stone. The organization will continue to evaluate the situation and said it will announce whether a further extension will be necessary on or before Sept. 30, the day the CDC's"no-sail" order is scheduled to end. However, if"conditions" in the U.S. change to allow short, modified sailings, it will consider an earlier restart.
"The extension will allow additional time for our ocean-going members to work with outside experts and partners to develop enhanced public health protocols," Golin-Blaugrund told USA TODAY.on ships that have resumed operations around the world. CLIA said in the statement thatby further extending its sailing suspension, which has been in place since March 14, that they are demonstrating "the cruise industry’s commitment to public health.
The decision to extend the suspension further was a difficult one to make, CLIA said in the statement. The pandemic has had a devastating impact on the cruising community, which typically generates nearly $53 billion to the U.S. economy annually, according to its most recent. According to the organization, each day of the suspension results in a loss of $110 million and 800"direct and indirect" American jobs.
