At least six more cruise lines have announced that they have extended their suspension of cruises due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Last week, Royal Caribbean’s four cruise lines were the first lines to extend suspensions. Now, MSC Cruises, Cunard Line, Carnival Cruise Line, Holland America Line, and P&O Cruises have pushed back their start dates for cruises.
MSC Cruises – MSC Cruises has decided to extend their suspension of cruises until May 29, 2020. The original target date was April 30.
Carnival Cruise Line – As the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, Carnival Cruise Line has made the decision to suspend all sailings until May 11, 2020.
Disney Cruise Line – Disney Cruise Line has extended the suspension of cruises through April 28, 2020.
Holland America Line – Due to the continued port closures and travel restrictions surrounding global health concerns, Holland America Line has made the decision to extend its pause of global cruise operations for an additional 30 days, cancelling sailings scheduled to depart through May 14, 2020.
Cunard Line – Cunard is extending its pause in operations up to and including May 15, 2020, as a result of the continued impact of COVID-19 and following global guidelines. It is clear that the original date of April 11, 2020, to resume sailings is not feasible in the current situation.
P&O Cruises – P&O Cruises is extending its pause in operations up to and including May 15, 2020 as a result of the continued impact of COVID-19.
