Well... our flights to Italy and from Barcelona for this summer are on British Airways, and I hadn’t even begun to see if there are any options. Hopefully, they’ll just still be in business...I’m in the same hen house also with Delta - and what really sucks for the first time ever I scored a great deal and got 1st class tickets for my return flight from my Hawaii cruise in Vancouver - ugh !! Well that isn’t happening now us it?? I highly doubt it! Mum is the word from the mouse !! Cluck cluck here !!
Agreed. Airlines and financial institutions are a necessity. Government will need to bail them out. Cruise industry, on the other hand; a luxury. Government may not step in to bail them out. Hotels stand somewhere in between. We will have to wait and see how this all plays out.The airlines in the US will stay in business. Just take a look at 9/11 and 2008 for a blueprint. They'll get a bailout, figure out a way to funnel much of that into shareholder pockets, have rounds of layoffs, declare bankruptcy to get rid of any liabilities on their books, re-organize, and then back to business as usual.
(I'm not jaded at all..)

If I were a betting man...Wondering how long they drag this out until the next official statement on Alaska and Europe, now they both are no longer on sale?

My guess is that they'll run the ships on cruises that are close to the US mainland (Key West, Castaway, etc.) in some form so people will know that they won't be too far from the coast initially.
I saw the Dream anchored in that spot a few days ago via Marine Traffic.Not specific to this conversation, but my sister works in Cocoa Beach and one of the ships has been anchored offshore for several days now. She hasn’t been by the port to see what ships are moored. It made me wonder what kind of skeleton crew would be needed on an anchored ship and if they would have enough supplies . . .
I couldn’t tell from the photo she sent me which ship it was since she used her phone instead of a camera. On the plus side, there was only one person on the beach, so people are taking the distancing seriously in that area.I saw the Dream anchored in that spot a few days ago via Marine Traffic.
