Royal Caribbean Group says it will delay the launch of its new cruise liner by nearly a month after eight crew members tested positive for COVID-19.

said six of Odyssey's eight crew members who tested positive were asymptomatic and two had mild symptoms.

The positive cases were traced following the crew's inoculation but before the effectiveness of the vaccine kicked in, the company said. All 1,400 crew members were vaccinated on June 4 and will be considered fully vaccinated on June 18, it added.International, which has eight trips scheduled from U.S. ports, had previously planned the voyage of its brand new ship through Israel, Greece and Cyprus but the route was later altered on security grounds.

Shares of the three companies were up more than 2% each following an upgrade from Wolfe Research, which is expecting a recovery in the industry based on improved bookings and pricing trends out of North America over the past month.
