Royal Caribbean Group has extended a standstill of operations until 30 November, but this does not include Hong Kong.
“Our primary goal continues to be a healthy return to service for our guests, crew and the communities we visit. As we work with the CDC and others toward this shared goal, Royal Caribbean Group will be extending the suspension of sailings to include those departing on or before November 30, 2020, excluding sailings from Hong Kong,” the company said in a statement.
The company did not say if this meant that operations in Hong Kong could resume before the end of next month. However, speakers at the Seatrade Cruise Virtual event suggested that cruising from Hong Kong could restart soon.
“Celebrity Cruises will also be suspending their full 2020/21 Winter program in Australia and Asia. Additionally, Azamara will be suspending their 2020/21 Winter sailings throughout Australia & New Zealand, South Africa and South America,” the company said.
