Emrys Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 The CDC has recently been adding more cruise destinations on its level 4 list but it's important to know this doesn't mean that a cruise ship will stop sailing there. The cruise lines do work with local authorities on protocols and things like that, so hopefully, that does not change. So far, here is the list of the Caribbean destinations on the level 4 list: Antigua and Barbuda Aruba The Bahamas Belize Bermuda British Virgin Islands Curacao Jamaica Puerto Rico Panama St. Kitts and Nevis St. Lucia St. Maarten/St. Martin U.S. Virgin Islands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Lamb Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I hope the cruise industry will continue to make their own decisions about where to cruise. They do a great job without the help of the CDC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise-Sailor Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Ditto. What started off with good intentions ended in unnecessary egotistical hinderance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser44 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 It will be interesting to see which places are added to level 4 next. The cruise lines are doing well and it's good they continue to sail to these ports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emrys Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 The CDC has added another two countries to the list but thankfully not major cruise destinations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Lamb Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 So, the CDC is at it again! Another country added to their list of bad places. If they can't rule over what cruise lines do directly, they will do it by telling folks where they shouldn't be traveling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emrys Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 I wonder which one will be next. Don't think there are many left! Will also be interesting to see if the CDC Conditional Sailing Order will be extended or not at the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryred Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 The metrics the CDC & State Dept. use to calculate travel risk is ridiculous, simply because it completely ignores all 50 states of the USA. I mean if you look a the Brown's University color code level the 35 States are the same Level Red for new cases and deaths due to Covid as many of those cruise port countries. In fact currently the Bahamas and Puerto Rico has moved to Yellow, and Sint Maarten is now Orange. https://globalepidemics.org/key-metrics-for-covid-suppression/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser44 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 It's constantly changing. The main thing is that cruise lines are ignoring all these notices, which is good. Florida is looking better than most areas in that map from Brown's University! That's a good sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emrys Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 Just checking the list today and no major Caribbean cruise destinations added to the level 4 list. Singapore is the latest since October 18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
