The Royal Caribbean cruise line said on Monday that passengers above age 12 that start their trip in Florida will be required to show that they have insurance that covers COVID-19-related issues.

“Effective June 29, 2021, unvaccinated guests 12 and older departing on a Royal Caribbean International cruise from Florida are required to purchase travel insurance,” a statement sent to The Epoch Times by the Royal Caribbean reads. “The insurance must cover medical, travel and other related costs for COVID-19 should they test positive while on board.”
