The CDC has issued new guidelines for cruise ships, requiring testing of passengers and crew at the start and end of voyages, which are limited to seven days. Shipowners must prove they have procedures for testing, quarantining, and isolating, including having test labs on board. Simulated voyages with volunteers will be conducted. The no sail order, initially set to expire, was not extended due to its impact on Florida's tourism. Despite the new guidelines, it may take months for cruises to resume.
