Genting Cruise Lines plans to be the first cruiseship owner to pull up anchor on its vessels amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
Cruiseship fleets worldwide began laying up their ships in mid-March because of onboard virus outbreaks, leading to a sector-wide freeze on cruising that lasts to this day.
Over the past three months, owners have extended their suspensions several times as they try to figure out how to return to service while preventing more outbreaks.
