Passenger numbers to be limited as UK cruise sector returns 5 hours ago
Cruise ships sailing in UK waters will be limited to 1,000 passengers when operations begin on or after May 17th.
All travellers must also be residents of the British Isles, according to new regulations issued by the department of transport.
The rules also state Covid-19-secure guidance will continue to apply.
Groups of more than six people or two households will not be allowed to mix indoors – whether or not they originally booked in the same group, the government said.
