RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. â Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line plans to conduct a simulate sailing later this month after receiving approval from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday.
A small, private group of pre-selected, fully vaccinated passengers will join fully vaccinated crew members onboard Grand Classica, departing June 25 for a two-night round-trip cruise from the Port of Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island.
Florida says cruise lines cannot require crew or guests be vaccinated. But some cruise lines are doing it anyway, saying international law requires it.
