Royal Caribbean International announced Friday anyone holding a passport from China, Hong Kong or Macau would be unable to board any of its cruise ships throughout February.
The cruise line company said it had consulted with experts and public health authorities before announcing the changes. Those banned include anyone holding passports from China, Hong Kong or the Chinese special administrative region Macau, regardless of where they were living. Royal Caribbean also announced that there would be extra screenings at cruise terminals for anyone who shows flu-like symptoms or anyone who has been in contact with people who have visited mainland China, Hong Kong or Macau in the last 15 days. In addition, any guest with fever or low blood oximetry—or the amount of oxygen in the blood—will not be allowed to board.
"We know that these steps are very conservative, and we apologize that they will inconvenience some of our guests. We regret to have to do this, but it is our responsibility to maintain a safe and healthy environment onboard our ships, as well as in the ports we visit," the company said in its statement.The Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship Anthem of the Seas is docked at Cape Liberty port on February 7, 2020 in Bayonne, New Jersey.
