Royal Caribbean's Cruises to Nowhere Are Still Going Nowhere

Cruise line cancels more voyages on the Spectrum of the Seas.

Royal Caribbean has announced the cancellation of Spectrum of the Seas’ Hong Kong sailings scheduled on January 21, 23, 26, 28 and 31, 2022.

The company said, "The sailings were canceled following an update to local COVID-19 prevention policies by local authorities on January 14, which requires a 14-day suspension of all cruise operations. "We fully expect to welcome back our guests onboard Spectrum’s February 4 cruise," it added, in a statement.

Royal Caribbean and Dream Cruises, the only cruise lines operating out of Hong Kong have struggled to operate under the very strict rules from the local authorities who faint when they hear of one case of Covid.
