The CDC dropped its cruise travel health notice Wednesday, after warning travelers against the dangers of contracting COVID on a cruise for 2 years.
Cruise Lines International Association, the industry's leading trade group, applauded the CDC's decision to remove the health notice.
"Today's decision by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to altogether remove the Travel Health Notice for cruising recognizes the effective public health measures in place on cruise ships and begins to level the playing field, between cruise and similarly situated venues on land, for the first time since March 2020," the cruise line association said in a statement shared by Laziza Lambert, the group's director of strategic communications and public affairs.
While it's optional, 108 cruise ships had opted in and only one opted out of participation as of Wednesday.
