So in other words people will actually book cruises— it’s always money— hit them where it hurts Money walks- bullshit talks
Hallelujah! This is good news! Been wondering how you these issues would play out. Now it’s time to see how airlines deal with interstate travel to and from freedom states.
They’ll just have passengers put on masks and take them off depending on what states they’re flying over. Makes the most sense.
You know, it wouldn't surprise me. It makes just as much sense as walking into a restaurant with a mask on but you can take it off when you sit down.
NOW I understand cognitive dissonance... ?
I do a mental face smack when I see people do that. So dumb.
I get being on vacation, tooling around the Caribbean but I have absolutely zero interest of being stuck on that thing, with all those people even during the best of times. It might be more of a social vs. introvert issue for me.
I'll be honest, my parents LOVE cruising and took me and my fam on a Carnival 3-day cruise to nowhere (LOL, sounds as bad as it was!) with them, and all I wanted to do was get off the ship. It was like a floating all-you-can-eat buffet with sub-par entertainment and patrons the likes of who you might find on the "people of walmart" blogs. Sorry if this sounds really judgy, I just dont understand the appeal of cruising.
Well that's because Carnival just sucks. I've been on Disney, Carnival, and multiple Royal, and much prefer Royal.
Been on Carnival and Disney. Carnival is like the Golden Corral of cruising. Many people, much food, much diarrhea. Disney was fantastic but I was a kid so..idk. It might be fun to take a nicer cruise but I’m thinking smaller is better. I remember the Disney one rocked like crazy, had a blast.
I still remember the weird mustard smell in the Carnival cabin head.
Never been to a Golden Corral. Is the food bland there too? Carnaval has 'much food' but it's pretty much inedible- even desserts were bad like they forgot the sugar.
It’s been a while since my GC days but the food was plentiful and bland, yes.
Not judgy at all...I'm with you there on all points. I took one Caribbean cruise a bunch of years ago (It was a 4 or 5 day voyage), had bad weather over half the time, which meant the ports of call on those days were canceled due to the inability of shuttle boats to get us all to land (no docks large enough to accommodate ship) and so everyone was stuck on board all day. Not much to do except eat. And this wasn't one of those bottom of the barrel discount lines, either. The whole experience of getting off at the same place I got on was immensely disappointing, much like an overhyped theme park ride. I'm intrigued by the idea of a transatlantic voyage with a European tour on the other end, but I think I'm done with overcrowded journeys from point A to point A.
I would love to take the Rhine cruise if Europe ever uncucks itself. I have also hear the St Lawrence Seaway cruise is awesome but no way I'm going near Canadian soil. The Alaska cruise would be awesome.
Cruises sound like everything I hate about airplanes but with 100x more people for 20x longer, and on the ocean.
I was thinking the same. Or on a riverboat on the Mississippi.
Two words...roto virus. Or..is it one word. Anyway, ugh.
So why don’t they require a roto virus vaccine? It’s apparently devastating for them. But there’s no vaccine and no requirement.
Cruise ships have always given me the creeps. People going missing.
Yes, and there's no accountability for illegal shit because they're on the ocean.
THIS! He wears a magnum for sure!
Love my governor! One of the few with a spine in politics!
I guess we better ramp ip the PCR test cycles again to make it look like the cruise patrons are getting sick en masse.
If you ramp it up you can get some nice positive results from the lobster too. Once the cooked lobsters start getting Covid we can all be afraid of a new cross species variant that can survive boiling water!
"REEEEEEEE" is not just the cries of agony of your average woketard, it's also the sound of lobsters dying from COVID while boiling.
He did it to save that industry. They'll s cretly thank him later.
Exactly. I would’ve boycotted the heck outta them and everyone supporting them. I’m quite sure many others in FL would be with me as well.
smells like...victory
Yes and no. In the article it says the CDC has to approve the ships for use. What the hell. Since when do we bow to the CDC for permission to operate a business?
That sucks for the lady at my gym who took the shot because of her upcoming cruise
I know others who did the same. And one was my brother. IDIOTS!
I wonder how many people are really feeling the regret now. I’m going to pray for them.
Lolol
Me too! I wonder!!
This is Donald Trump level of winning...... From a state governor. This should be a wake up call to people who think we can't make as much of a difference on a smaller scale. If we had just 10 DeSantis(es) across the country, we'd have a lot less fuckery going on in the U.S.
Mostly agreed, but think because of the damage done to the 10th Amendment since the Civil War, we may need closer to 26.
Agreed entirely on:
Florida has a well-deserved reputation for being the most free state, and DeSantis has pretty much sealed that position for Florida for at least the rest of his term. Very likely he will also serve another.
From the Libertarian advocacy group, the Cato Institute: (note, these are from three years ago. Michigan has probably plummeted, I suspect Florida still holds #1) https://www.freedominthe50states.org/

Yeeeesssssss! The hubster and I love to cruise. Especially abroad. Royal Caribbean is our cruise line of choice. Carnival sucks. I've never seen so many drunk people in one place. Ugh...
I'm thinking British Isles! :-)
Submission...
They be Pontius Piloting
Good ol washing of hands
Why are the people on twitter not wanting to go on the ship if they were vaccinated? Not like they think they will catch the virus or anything....
I must say that is nice to hear....it's up for consideration for later this year...

is she sure about "she/her"? I'd check those pronouns. hey easy enough to change right
Woohoo!! A great win on the cruise front!!
We love cruising and have sailed out of Florida a dozen times or more--but we're not getting the jab and won't wear masks on vacation. So I kind of figured there was no hope that we would ever cruise again.....but this gives me hope!
Bend the knee you nazis
Imagine if Trump had had Vice President DeSantis.
Yep money and power is at the root of all evil. So let’s play a game. Government now wants to redistribute wealth. Let’s start at the top with the Rockefeller’s, Rothschilds, Gates, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Soros, etc. Open up and review their taxes, their real estates, all bank accounts, all art, all gold and silver. Confiscate all but say $200,000 and put the rest in a secure account. Then once every man, woman and child on this planet receives the same scrutiny, each one will be allotted $200,000. And there will be citizens from every walk of life in charge of this account. Then we will see how good that works for them.
Hit them in the wallet and they will bend. This is how all businesses need to be treated.
