As cruise lines drop COVID-19 rules, ‘demand is definitely going to go up’: What travelers should know
- Some major cruise lines have seen spikes in booking after dropping COVID-19 rules.

- Cruises will book up faster, too, one travel agency owner said.
About a week after Carnival Cruise Line announced it would drop its vaccine requirement for many sailings next month, Denise Jewell shared information about a Mother’s Day cruise she is organizing with her women’s travel Facebook Group. Bookings that previously may have taken days or weeks to come through, Jewell said, took just hours.
