We had 4 Cruise Lines cruising out of New Orleans. Carnival (which had 2 ships), Royal Caribbean, NCL, and Disney. All would sell out every sailing, leaving here with full Ships. I am not sure how many will survive the Covid situation. I can't imagine how the Cruise lines are keeping the Ships maintained and seaworthy without any type of income. Their expenses must be staggering. Most of their money was made through the casinos and liquor sales, neither of which is available to them with no passengers. I doubt they are getting much help from the US Government, since most if not all are based out of the US. I think Carnival is out of Hollywood, Fla, but all of their ships are registered in the Bahamas or Panama to avoid paying US taxes.
