Cruise Specialists
Cruising will be back in 2022
With the ever-increasing number of people getting vaccinated across the world, countries are finally opening up and there is now positive momentum in the cruise industry. The prediction is that cruising will be back big time in 2022. Pent-up demand has already led to a huge surge in bookings from cruise lovers who have had their trips cancelled or delayed because of Covid. There are also new bookings from people who know that cruising is returning – and it will be safer than ever.
For instance, cruise lines have implemented strict sanitation and Covid protocols, including contactless facial recognition at check-in, shore excursion bubbles, electronic contact tracing and pre-cruise testing and/or vaccination requirements. So, do you still dream of cruising down the French Riviera, sampling delicious cuisine and enjoying the historical vistas? Does a voyage among the glaciers of Greenland, witnessing majestic icebergs and fascinating sea creatures take your interest? Is a tropical destination with sun-soaked views from your luxury liner more appealing? Cove Travel offers superior service to travellers who wish to cruise the globe in style.
