Very sad but expected news. I'm sure there will be more coming from other cruise lines too. Corona is not over yet, who knows when we will be back to normal life again.

Their is speculation the older P&O/Princess ships will sold. Carnival Corp. raised the number of sjips to be sold from 10 to 18 recently. So stay tuned. The announcements don't come until after they are already sold or being scrapped. Very sad to see.

It wouldn't surprise me to hear that they're thinking of selling off the Grand and the Golden and maybe the Sea.
