Cliffs Notes from the Royal Caribbean Blog post:
- "We are currently planning for a very limited initial return and a gradual ramp up during the first half of 2021."
- "Deployment of spring is expected to be highly focused on short sailings from key drive markets in both the U.S. and Asia-Pacific regions."
- "We propose to start slowly by training our crew and embarking on a series of non-revenue trial sailings, where we can rehearse and validate the new protocols."
- "And then only on a ship or two it first and in a gradual and methodical way, we expect to start sailing again."
- "We intend to make our ships and environment a bubble, if you will, that presents less risk of transmission than our guests would find on land."
- "It will be slower than I would wish, but faster than many are assuming."
