Singapore to allow 2 ships to pilot "cruises to nowhere"
From November the Singapore government will allow Genting Cruise Lines' World Dream (November) and Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas (December) - to trial cruises to no where at 50% capacity for Singapore residents only.
I wonder if this is just a precursor to figuring out a) if cruises can operate safely and b) how they will in future allow people to fly and cruise.
Singapore to resume cruises to nowhere for residents from November

ms europa has annual 1 day cruise with michelin chef festival, 2021 is 16th
NCL did 1 night cruises, and i'm pretty sure cunard did as well
(no idea how to search for past cruise itins)
and obviously there have always been transoceanic crossings, most nonstop
but perhaps the rule of 2 countries unless round trip will be suspended/ended

my comment was in terms of cruise to nowhere, primarily that there were in the past quite a few 1 nights
the other thing that may pop up is more yachts taking bookings of cabins, whether ultra low end or ultra high end, although at the highest end there is likely more demand then there is supply
