UPDATED 4/29/2021 You likely saw headlines back in late 2019 about a Golden Girls-themed cruise taking place. Well, it happened, and it was the best pre-lockdown cruise, according to cruise-goers. A story from a CNN contributor discusses going on a cruise right before a pandemic, where masks and social distancing were not yet a thing for the 2,170-person cruise. The second sail had returned on March 5th, just when the WHO (World Health Organization) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. It looks like another Golden Girls cruise will return for 2022, perfect timing to celebrate post-pandemic (hopefully without masks or social distancing). An April 2021 cruise was supposed to happen, but was canceled due to the pandemic still ongoing, so fans can look forward to a 2022 sailing! Reports say there will even be a 100th birthday bash for star Betty White (with the cheesecake, of course).
