Royal Caribbean Changes Policy to Make COVID Vaccines Optional for Passengers
The move is in-line with efforts pushed by Governor Ron DeSantis
On Friday, Royal Caribbean International announced a change in its policy, saying vaccinations against the coronavirus (COVID-19) will be optional for cruise ship passengers.
“Guests are strongly recommended to set sail fully vaccinated, if they are eligible," the company said in its announcement. "Those who are unvaccinated or unable to verify vaccination will be required to undergo testing and follow other protocols, which will be announced at a later date."
The move comes after Florida passed a law that will fine companies $5,000 each time they ask customers if they are vaccinated against the coronavirus, The Miami Herald reported.
