Cruises Still Sailing Despite COVID Outbreaks

The Cruise Lines International Association said cases in recent weeks make up a slim percentage of the total population on board.

While the Omicron variant spreads, COVID-19 is not sparing cruise ships. 

The CDC lists nearly 90 ships that are under observation or investigation, including major cruise lines. 

But on a sunny Wednesday afternoon, passengers set for sail on a Royal Caribbean cruise out of Tampa.
