This includes cruises from Disney Cruise Line, which now has specific COVID-19 testing requirements prior to cruising and mask mandates. Recently, the Bahamas passed a new Emergency Powers that states all cruise ships on passenger voyages will not be allowed to enter a port in the Bahamas unless certain requirements are met.
