Cruise Line International Association (CLIA) Announces Cruise Suspensions Through October 2020
Just this morning, the Cruise Line International Association (CLIA) announced the voluntary suspension of cruise operations in the United States through October 31, 2020. Cruise lines who are members of the cruise trade association include Disney Cruise Line among others.
Here is the official statement regarding the suspension through October from CLIA:
Committed to the health and safety of passengers and crew, CLIA ocean-going cruise line members are announcing a third voluntary suspension of U.S. cruise operations until 31 October 2020. CLIA cruise line members are using this time to work with outside experts and partners to develop science-based COVID-19 mitigation protocols to guide the resumption of operations when the time is right.

We previously reported that the CDC issued no-sail orders to September 15, 2020. Of course, with this new announcement from CLIA, there will now unlikely be any cruises before November this year.
Looking at Disney Cruise Line sailings, there are 19 cruises that will be impacted by this suspension. Disney has not officially canceled these cruises yet but if you were scheduled to be on one, you might want to start looking into other plans:
