Princess Cruises had previously said it would suspend the voyages of all its 18 ships till May 10, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last week extended its “no sail order” for all cruise ships for up to 100 days. Carnival’s Chief Executive Officer, Arnold Donald, said the company is “working very hard” at seeking more liquidity options, as the cruise industry gets upended by travel bans and thousands of cancellations driven by the virus crisis.
