1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Jump with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 2: Let's get on down to the Jonesy Demander arms for

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 2: the pub test. I don't know if you watched it

4
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 2: last night Channel seven. I had a great story cruising

5
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: the Biggest Storm. I'm a bit of a ship tragic.

6
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: I'm not a big fan of cruising, but I do

7
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: like ships, possibly because I was good at making dire

8
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 2: armas of them when I was at school. I'd always

9
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,959
Speaker 2: do the Titanic. Easy, get a box, cut it in half,

10
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 2: get a ship, got a bit of water. That was

11
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: pretty much. That was what a diorama again, Jones, surely

12
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: you can do something better than this. But I was

13
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: watching it last night and they covered everything from the

14
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 2: Titanic to the cost of concord You remember the cost

15
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:38,319
Speaker 2: of Is.

16
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: That where the captain made an escape?

17
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, the coast Guard. It's so great. They played the

18
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 2: transcripts and it's in Italian. But the coast guard says, captain,

19
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: where are you? He says, I'm on the launch coordinating

20
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: the rescue, and the guy tells him to get back

21
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 2: on the effing ship.

22
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: Wow.

23
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: Anyway, so they cost god Cordy up to the Ruby

24
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: Princess and the overreaching question is can cruising come back

25
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: from this? Was that all the pictures of these ships

26
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: getting scrapped in Turkey on the beach there, But there's

27
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 2: also all the ships that are parked out in the

28
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: English Channel, they're parked out in the Bahamas. These just

29
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 2: the Iathans of the sea, just sitting there dormant.

30
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: Well, all the jobs that have gone with that too.

31
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: I think there's a ban on cruising in Australia until

32
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: December seventeen. They're for foreign flagged cruise ships. But it's

33
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: cost Australia more than one point four billion in lost

34
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: lost money.

35
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 2: But I also realized that controversy has followed the cruise

36
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: ship industry because it's largely unregulated, as opposed to the airlines,

37
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: which have strict regulations. In this particular Channel seven story,

38
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 2: it just showed them dumping stuff out to see horrible

39
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 2: deaths of people. You know, there's no law out there. Apparently,

40
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: it's like really this world, really national waters.

41
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: But Australians love cruising that it's been sold as the

42
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: promise of a dream and a lot of people want

43
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: to hold on to that. I've got a friend who

44
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: has a travel agency, so much of her business was

45
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: for people on a cruisers and it's often very expensive

46
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: around the world. Cruisers, retirement cruisers. These are long held

47
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: dreams that I wonder whether people will give up because

48
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: now we're frightened to go in those big mass ships.

49
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: Maybe the small ones.

50
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: Would be a smaller ship.

51
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: But a recent cruise ship, this was one of the

52
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: first to head off again, had fifteen one hundred passengers

53
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: in the Greek Islands. This isn't an Australian scenario. It

54
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: was a Maltese flag cruise ship. Twelve Corona cases from

55
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: the cruz straight away, so they tested all the passengers,

56
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: but some of the crew got on board with coronavirus

57
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: and many of us think, well, will there be a

58
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: better time to cruise because finally these rules are in place.

59
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well the Ruby Princess as well, which gave us

60
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: all the coronavirus pretty much in Australia, most of our cases.

61
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,399
Speaker 2: There was a guy on there who seventy three years

62
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: of age. He got coronavirus. He thought he was going

63
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 2: to die, so they had him being interviewed at the

64
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: end of the show and this is what he said.

65
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 2: Moving forward, hopefully they've earned their lesson and the ship

66
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: is going to be very, very clean.

67
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: My wife and I have talked about this, and the

68
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: decision is that we go.

69
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: Day's going to go again when the time is right.

70
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: It's the promise, promise of happiness. He probably thought, well,

71
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm taking my chances. And as he said, you assume

72
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 1: that the industry will make sure it's safe for you.

73
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: But do you trust it cruising? Is it past the

74
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: pub test? Well, no way, no way. I'm never going

75
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: to go on to one of those things. Wild horses

76
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: couldn't get me on. They're just a floating pet tradition. Ah,

77
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: they're great value, they're great fun. But I know the

78
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: pandemic with something we've never seen before. But they've got

79
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: lost the heads of war for that.

80
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: But it's not pointing up on that again. You know,

81
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: I've played on going on.

82
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: I lot.

83
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: They're good, but I have it holidays at home. I'm

84
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: always working on something. I go back to work.

85
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: I don't bear all for refreshed, you know, but I

86
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: always think you can't do nothing but eat drinks and

87
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: enjoy yourself, so they force you around. Hell, no's like

88
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: a bloody cruising coffin literally literally coffee.

89
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 2: I think she's a no thank We won't see you

90
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: on the Lido deck, will we?

91
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 1: With Joins and Amanda
