The guidance, which has been circulated by the International Maritime Organization, sets out the minimum recommended measures expected to be implemented by all stakeholders while maintaining general safety and security standards. Crystal Cruises has marked the 30th anniversary of its first sailing, when Crystal Harmony sailed from San Francisco, California, to Alaska. Crystal Cruises observed the occasion by hosting a 30th anniversary edition of ‘Friday Nights at the Galaxy’ as part of its Crystal@Home series of digital programming. It has also launched a guest-curated playlist on Spotify and is also now making available the Taste: Crystal’s 30th Anniversary Cookbook , which was released onboard earlier this year.
