The decision was made following recent changes in certain European countries that now mandate up to a 10-day quarantine for unvaccinated travelers upon entry.

He added: 'The vast majority of our guests are already vaccinated and they, along with our travel advisor partners, have expressed support of this new policy as an added layer of protection to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all guests and crew on board.'
