A2: We've been talking a lot with Virtuoso advisors lately about what they miss most about cruising. A top answer: that feeling of being at sea and approaching a new port for the first time, knowing that there's so much exploration on the horizon. #VirtuosoTravel #TWChats

Q3: The Healthy Sail Panel made 74 recommendations to make cruising safe. Which is the one that gives you the most peace of mind? #TWchats

I think it is hard to pick just one, when it really is a combination of safety regulations, staff training, and listening to science that makes us believe that cruising will come back stronger than ever #GoMAST #TWChats https://t.co/HzOyh9J0KS

Q8: For all you river-cruise fans out there: Tweet a reason you prefer river cruising to ocean cruising #TWchats

— Travel Weekly (@TravelWeeklyUS) November 12, 2020

A8: OK, for all you ocean cruisers out there, read my Dispatch of disembarking a river ship for a walk around town and laugh. I literally went back up the gangway twice thinking I'd forgotten to "swipe out" of the ship https://t.co/sjkVM5m8Nb #TWchats

Q9: From the oceans to the rivers, from big ships to small, tweet a cruise vessel that holds a special place in your heart. Bonus points for photos #TWchats

A9: For me, it's Oasis of the Seas. As one of our most recent Royal Amplified ships, she's one I hold near to my heart for all of the great family memories I have created onboard, especially during the Holidays. Here I am last November enjoying the view to the boardwalk. #Twchats pic.twitter.com/QpvazzO3nC
