A Look Back at One Year Since the Restart

It’s been a year since the cruise restart. Let’s take a look back.

In this episode we take a look back at the year as we celebrate one full year of the cruise line’s restart and return to service. 

Just one year ago, we were standing by as the world resumed cruising again. In 2020 alone 576,000 cruise jobs had been lost, and it was time to get back to cruising!

Now, one year later, Shipmate app is reporting that 91.4% of cruisers in their community are planning to cruise in the upcoming year. 

Here is an outline of what I’ll cover in this podcast.

What have we learned? 

• How we feel about cruise travel now
