Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, based in Miami, will begin "simulated cruises" starting NEXT MONTH. Those cruises will have limited numbers of invited passengers and will not be open to the public. The objective is to test and fine-tune covid protocols under CDC guidelines and review.

Yes. I think all of their existing crew members have already been vaccinated, and vaccination will probably be a condition of employment for new hires.

the Norwegian article says this - All initial voyages will operate with fully vaccinated guests.

How are they going to get around the governor's orders that they can't require vaccines? Should be interesting to follow.
