Royal Caribbean's Florida cruise in July will be different for unvaccinated passengers

Royal Caribbean's Florida cruise in July will be different for unvaccinated passengers amid the state's vaccine passport ban. See the full list of restrictions.

...Now, let's take a look at the differences between a vaccinated and unvaccinated passenger's experience aboard the upcoming Freedom of the Seas sailings.

Fully vaccinated guests can access every part of the ship, and won't need to wear a face covering at "vaccinated-only venues." Unvaccinated passengers won't have this same luxury: they'll have to wear masks indoors or in crowded outdoor locations unless they're eating and drinking, and won't be able to access select venues.

Places open to both vaccinated and unvaccinated guests will have "spaced seating." Outdoor venues like pools and open-air decks will be available to all passengers.

On top of these onboard restrictions, unvaccinated guests will have to undergo several COVID-19 tests that vaccinated guests won't have to do. This amounts to an extra $136 out-of-pocket payment per unvaccinated passenger for Florida cruises sailing five nights or less in July. In August, this additional cost increases up to $178 for cruises sailing six nights or more (cruises five nights or less will still have a $136 payment per unvaccinated guest for the tests)....

What's to stop an unvax person from just walking into the "select" venues?

Just to get the FREE shots and be done with it.

I don't understand the stubborness here. Of course, I'm old enough to have gotten measles, mumps, german measles, chicken pox-- none of which any of these anti-vaxxers had to suffer through.

I note that these angry 'anti" people -- anti-whatever Trump or Q or their own bilious natures tell them to be against-- are against the very things that are GREAT examples of human progress and compassion and courage.

Vaccinations continue to be one of the greatest gifts medical science has bestowed on the world-- saving millions of people.

Of course, they also now have to be against civil rights because somehow they find themselves loving the confederate traitors. Civil rights, as Justice Kagan said, was one of the most heroic movements-- THE most heroic movement-- since the revolution, and yet they spew out "CRT evil!" without caring what they're despising.

It's a personality disorder, and Trump's to blame for letting it rise to the surface in so many Americans.
