Carnival Corp. could resume U.S. cruises this year, but Chief Executive Officer Arnold Donald said it’s too “early” to make a determination with public health restrictions still in place.
Speaking in a radio interview with Bloomberg’s Carol Massar, Donald noted that many parts of the U.S. are experiencing significant spread of Covid-19 and have major public-health restrictions.
Until Americans are comfortable with social gathering in general, he said, “then we shouldn’t be talking about cruise.”
The company plans to start sailing in a limited capacity with ships leaving from Germany and Italy.
