While some cruise lines operating today have already committed to having a 100 percent fresh air mix aboard their vessels going forward, many are still finalizing their health and safety protocols.
Of the few lines that have rolled out detailed preliminary health and safety protocols, air circulation remains a central component of many safe return-to-cruise policies.
In June, Norwegian Cruise Line
announced new health and safety
protocols that included the installation of new medical-grade H13 HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters across its fleet. These filters are estimated to remove 99.95 percent of all airborne pathogens that are 0.1 microns or larger. The COVID-19 pathogen is 25 percent larger than this standard, coming in at 0.125 microns. For comparison, a single human hair is 75 microns -- 75,000 percent larger.
Earlier this month, Norwegian Cruise Line
partnered with Royal Caribbean
to develop a "Healthy Sail" taskforce detailed with creating health and safety protocols for their respective fleets, and for the industry as a whole.

While the Health Sail panel won't present its findings until the end of August, it is already clear that onboard air systems will play a role in the return to safe cruising.

cruises restarting have centered on the visible changes that passengers might see -- mandated masks and social distancing as well as staggered embarkation and capacity limits – cruise lines are examining harder-to-see improvements, such as upgrades to the ship's ventilation system.
The move is being driven by scientific research, which is now focusing more on aerosol spread of COVID-19, as opposed to surfaces. In fact, 239 doctors across 32 countries have recently submitted a petition calling on the World Health Organization to recognize the COVID-19 coronavirus as being potentially transmitted through micro-droplets in the air.

Consumers, too, are becoming more aware. In
a recent survey
, Cruise Critic members resoundingly supported changes to air and ventilation systems aboard cruise ships.
