It's almost hard to believe that this many crew are still stranded on RCCL ships & cannot return home.
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/business/tourism-cruises/article243398711.htmlAfter 80 days at sea, three transfers between ships, four canceled flights and one plane malfunction, Royal Caribbean Cruises music director Bruno Cruells finally touched down in his native Argentina on June 3, accompanied by 251 compatriots. Sitting behind the taxi’s new plexiglass on the way home from the airport with his hometown whizzing by out the window, he felt relief.
“I felt like I was finally safe somehow,” said Cruells, 30, “like continuing from where I left before all of this happened.”
As more countries loosen COVID-19 travel restrictions, crew members are slowly making their way home. About 3,000 Carnival Cruise Line workers got off in Croatia earlier this month to catch rides and flights home across Europe. Smiling behind their masks, they posed for a selfie on the pier.
