Norwegian Cruise Line announced Monday that it’s removing all COVID-19 testing, masking and vaccination requirements effective Tuesday.
“Health and safety are at all times our first priority; in actual fact, we were the health and safety leaders from the very start of the pandemic,” said Harry Sommer, Norwegian Cruise Line president and chief executive officer. “Many travelers have been patiently waiting to take their long-awaited vacation at sea and we cannot wait to have fun their return.”
The cruise line says its decision was based on the “significant, positive progress in the general public health environment” in a press release. The corporate believes its updated health and safety guidelines are actually more aligned with other global travel organizations.
Despite the easing of COVID-19–related protocols, NCL will proceed to follow travel guidelines required by destinations it visits.
