Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NCLH) has sued the State of Florida over the state’s law preventing businesses from requiring customers to show proof of vaccination in order to receive services.

The CDC's new rules call for extensive mask use onboard, social distancing, and vaccine requirements.

Norwegian announced it will not be able to restart cruises until at least July 2021.
