Federal Maritime Commissioner Louis Sola is looking to amend regulations governing refunds for canceled cruise voyages.
Royal Caribbean International's cruise ship 'Allure of the Seas' in Fort Lauderdale as seen from nearby Hollywood, Florida, November 11, 2010.The delta variant is fueling a resurgence in Covid-19 infections in the United States just as the cruise line industry ramps up operations after months of being sidelined.
At least one cruise line has reported that bookings for near-term voyages have softened as coronavirus cases have risen. And that was before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned on Friday that, regardless of their vaccination status. The new CDC guidance followed outbreaks of the virus on recent trips.
In his proposal, Sola suggested that if a sailing is canceled or a passenger boarding is delayed by 24-plus hours for any reason besides a governmental order or declaration, a full refund must be paid within 60 days following a passenger’s refund request. If the sailing is delayed or canceled by a government declaration of order, a full refund must be paid within 180 days.
