Royal Caribbean resumes cruise operations after nine months
Tuesday, 1st December 2020
Almost nine months after Royal Caribbean shut down its cruises due to the global health crisis, its first cruise ship will offer a restoration cruise.
Quantum of the Seas will sail from Singapore on today (December 1), and begin offering 3- and 4-night cruises to only citizens of Singapore with no port stops.
Royal Caribbean shut down all cruises beginning on March 14, 2020, and has not offered another cruise since. Quantum of the Seas will be the first to offer paid cruises since March.
The first sailing on Quantum of the Season December 1 is capped at about 1,000 guests.
It seems there was at least one research cruise over the weekend, which was a 2-night sailing open to select invitees before official sailings commence.
The test sailing was limited to a small number of guests who helped test out some of the new health protocols, which combines contact tracing tokens, RT-PCR testing, masks and more.
While Quantum of the Seas will be able to restart in Singapore, the rest of the line is shut down until further notice.
Australia cruises areĀ cancelled through the end of January 2021, and the elsewhere cruises are shut down until the end of December 2020.Latest
