Description:Updated Nov. 23, 2020
On October 30, 2020, CDC issued a Framework for Conditional Sailing Order for cruise ships operating or seeking to operate in U.S. waters.
CDC recommends that all people defer travel on cruise ships, including river cruises, worldwide. That’s because the risk of COVID-19 on cruise ships is high. People with an increased risk of serious illness should especially defer travel on cruise ships, including river cruises. CDC has issued a Level 3 Travel Health Notice for cruise ship travel.
Passengers who decide to travel are advised to take extra precautions to protect others for 14 days after their return from a cruise ship or river cruise voyage:
1. Stay home as much as possible.
2. Avoid being around people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
3. Consider getting tested for COVID-19.
