The CDC said as more people are fully vaccinated, a phased approach allows the CDC to incorporate advancements into planning for resumption of cruise ship travel when it is safe to do so. The public agency recommends that all eligible port personnel and travelers get a COVID-19 vaccine when one is available to them.
Carnival is also scheduled to report earnings Wednesday. Wall Street expects Carnival is expected to report a quarterly loss at $1.54 per share on revenue of $197.34 million.
