It's getting really serious now. To lay up 18 cruise ships for two months or more is a major decision.

The UK Govt’s advice that old people should not go on cruises could spell disaster for more than one operator. I am in my 70s and would not contemplate going on a cruise where there are hordes of kids on-board.

Costa Crociere cancels all cruises until April 3rd, Tui Cruises has cancelled seven cruises...
(And for the first time in 300 years "Hamburger Fischmarkt" is cancelled, too!)

PS: Costa's subsidiary AIDA also cancels all cruises until the beginning of April...
