Summary

A 2020 review of Norwegian Sky. This was a four-night cruise out of PortMiami that went to Nassau, Bahamas, and a scheduled stop at Great Stirrup Cay (which unfortunately was missed because of weather).

A new entertainment option was rolled out this week involving cruise directors, we talk with the creators.

Richard Simms has cruise news:

A handful of ships won't be returning until early 2021
Royal Caribbean says Australian and New Zeland are done until next year
Carnival Corporation said they are selling more ships
A small Alaskan cruise destination has been nominated for Seatrade Cruise Awards
A cruise ship delay for Disney Cruise Line

Question: Do you think cruise lines will make a big push to add a lot of smart technology in order to eliminate "touchpoints" in staterooms and throughout their ships?
