This Is a Daily Compilation of Media Articles Concerning the Covid-19 Impact on the International Cruise Industry 1 THIS IS A DAILY COMPILATION OF MEDIA ARTICLES CONCERNING THE COVID-19 IMPACT ON THE INTERNATIONAL CRUISE INDUSTRY. Please note this isn’t a complete listing of media articles but a snapshot only. 16 March, 2020: TOP-LEVEL TALKS TO GET HUNDREDS OF BRITISH HOLIDAYMAKERS’ HOME FROM CORONAVIRUS-HIT CRUISE More than 650 holidaymakers from the UK are stuck on Fred Olsen Lines ship Braemar that is anchored in the Bahamas with guests and crew isolated. The Foreign Office is holding “high level discussions” to get more than 650 Britons home from a Covid-19-stricken cruise ship. The Braemar cruise ship took on more medical staff and stocked up on supplies on Sunday night after anchoring in the Bahamas. The vessel, containing 667 Britons, was forced to isolate 20 guests and 20 crew who showed influenza-like symptoms. They included five people who tested positive for Covid-19 at the boat’s last port of call on the island of Curacao, on March 10. On Monday, Fred Olsen Cruise Lines, which runs the Braemar, said two doctors and two nurses were drafted in to assist the on-board medical team.

They are expressing alarm that Costa is taking the ship to Italy due to the high rate of infection in Italy. Crew members on this ship who are at the end of their contracts were not permitted to disembark while the ship was in Dubai. Meanwhile, there are crew members who have tested positive with coronavirus on the ship. Over one thousand crew members on the contaminated Grand Princess have still not been tested even though 19 of their colleagues on that ship are ill with COVID-19. There appears to be no plans by any cruise lines, even with ships which call on U.S. ports, to provide medical treatment ashore for their employees in order to comply with their maritime and legal obligations Crew members are uniformly expressing concern that their employers will refuse to pay them anything once they leave their ships and are returned home. Several MSC crew members explained that they are at the beginning of their contracts and the cruise line will not compensate them at all once they are sent home. Crew members from the Philippines have written an open letter to the president of their country asking for their mortgages, loans and other financial obligations be suspended so they can try to survive financially.

The plan for repatriation was announced by the US Department of State, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the US Centers for disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the State of California, the City of Oakland, and the Port of San Francisco. Last week, Grand Princess docked in Port of Oakland in California, US, after staying off the coast for four days due to a number of passengers contracting Covid-19. The cruise line operator said that it will cover the cost of ground transportation and charter flights.

The luxury cruise ship, which was marooned outside the Golden Gate for several days after tests revealed 21 cases on board of COVID-19, has had its passengers and most of the crew sent to quarantine in various locations including Travis Air Force Base in Solano County. It originally was to remain in Oakland only for three to five days; at his press conference today, Gov. Newsom had said it would set sail on Sunday evening.

But for decades, the industry has done everything in its power to avoid paying into the system.

Five people on the Braemar, operated by British cruise firm Fred Olsen, have already tested positive for Covid-19 and passengers – including the sick – now face the prospect of a voyage back across the Atlantic lasting up to ten days. The stricken ship, carrying 682 mostly British passengers and 381 crew, was refused permission to dock in Freetown in the Bahamas due to the outbreak. Instead, it was yesterday forced to anchor 25 miles off the northern coast of the Bahamas, where extra food, fuel and medical supplies were delivered by helicopter.

The impressive MS Fridtjof Nansen belongs to cruise company Hurtigruten and is scheduled to dock in Fowey today, Sunday, at 1pm. The Fridtjof Nansen's trip to Cornwall is part of its showcase voyage, which gives guests the chance to be amongst the very first to sail on MS Fridtjof Nansen, prior even to her inaugural trip from Hamburg, commencing at the beginning of April. The trip will begin in Liverpool and head to Dublin and Cardiff before visiting Fowey on day four of the voyage. The ship will then head to Dartmouth and Portsmouth.

The Norwegian Jewel, sailing under the flag of the Bahamas, has been refused permission to dock in French Polynesia, Fiji, New Zealand and Australia, and is now piloting to American Samoa to refuel. But no passengers will be allowed off the ship in Pago Pago and it is unclear where passengers will ultimately be permitted to disembark.

The former passenger got off the MSC Meraviglia in Miami on March 8 after an eight-day Caribbean cruise, leaving 103 passengers and the ship’s crew aboard for the next voyage. Four days later, after the ship had sailed with thousands of additional new passengers aboard, the Public Health Agency of Canada informed Broward-based MSC Cruises that the former passenger had tested positive. Once it received the result, the company said it isolated in individual cabins seven crew members who had been in close contact with the passenger. But instead of holding the ship off the Florida coast and testing people on board for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, MSC said U.S.

  • Statewide Cruise Perspective
    Florida’s Cruise Industry Statewide Perspective Executive Summary Florida has long held the distinction of being the number one U.S. cruise state, home to the top three cruise ports in the world — PortMiami, Port Everglades and Port Canaveral. However, Florida is in danger of losing this economically favorable status, with potential redeployment of the increasingly large floating assets of the cruise industry to other markets. Great future opportunity clearly exists, as the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) continues to cite the cruise industry as the fastest-growing segment of the travel industry and notes that because only approximately 24 percent of U.S. adults have ever Cruise ships at PortMiami taken a cruise vacation, there remains an enormous untapped market. Introduction As detailed in this report, the cruise industry is Recognizing the importance of the cruise industry continuing to bring new ships into service on a global to the present and future economic prosperity basis, with a focus upon larger vessels, those capable of the state of Florida, the Florida Department of of carrying as many as 4,000 or more passengers Transportation commissioned this report to furnish a per sailing – twice the capacities of the vessels statewide perspective. introduced as the first “megaships” two decades ago.

  • Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies
    More than a Directory! Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Companies 1st Edition, April 2013 © 2013 by J. R. Kuehmayer www.amem.at Cruise Ship Owners / Operators Preface The AMEM Publication “Cruise Ship Owners/Operators and Passenger Ship Financing & Management Compa- nies” in fact is more than a directory! Company co-ordinates It is not only the most comprehensively and accurately structured listing of cruise ship owners and operators in the industry, despite the fact that the majority of cruise lines is more and more keeping both the company’s coordinates and the managerial staff secret. The entire industry is obtrusively focused on selling their services weeks and months ahead of the specific cruise date, collecting the money at a premature stage and staying almost unattainable for their clients pre and after cruise requests. They simply ignore the fact that there are suppliers and partners around who wish to keep in touch personally at least with the cruise line’s technical and procurement departments! The rest of the networking-information is camouflaged by the yellow-pages industry, which is facing a real prospect of extinction. The economic downturn is sending the already ailing business into a tailspin. The yellow-pages publishers basically give back in one downturn what took seven years to grow! Cruise Ship Financing It is more than a directory as it unveils the shift in the ship financing sector and uncovers how fast the traditional financiers to the cruise shipping industry fade away and perverted forms of financing are gaining ground. Admittedly there are some traditional banks around, which can maintain their market position through a blend of sober judgements, judicious risk management and solid relationships.
