Royal Caribbean Group has announced that it has extended its voluntary suspension of sailings until 30 September.

The parent company’s cruise brands, which include Royal Caribbean International, Silversea Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and Azamara, will not set sail until the beginning of October.

The news follows the announcement from the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) that it would be extending its ‘No Sail Order’ until the end of September and after CLIA’s latest statement that it would be extending the sailing suspension of its ocean-going cruise members until 15 September.

In a statement, the cruise company said: “The health and safety of our guests, crew and the communities we visit is our top priority.

“As we work with the CDC and others toward this shared goal, Royal Caribbean Group will be extending the suspension of sailings to include those departing on or before September 30, 2020.”
