SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Call them the ghosts of summer vacations past: two mostly empty cruise ships remain anchored off the coast of San Diego, waiting for the green light to resume operations as the nation grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic.Celebrity’s Millennium and Eclipse cruise ships have been anchored in San Diego since March, when the CDC suspended cruise ship sailings around the country March 14. That order has been extended to at least July 24.Several cruise ship companies have announced voluntary delays until September.After thousands of passengers disembarked from the Eclipse in late March, test results came back showing several passengers were COVID-19 positive.More than a month later, in May, 63 passengers remained quarantined on the Eclipse with hundreds of crew members.A third ship, the Disney Wonder, was anchored in San Diego for the first few months of the pandemic, but departed May 30, said Brianne Page, a public information officer for the Port of San Diego.For now, the Millennium and Eclipse are ghosts of their former selves. All the passengers have now disembarked, along with the vast majority of the crew.Both ships are down to minimal staffing levels of about 80 crew members to maintain the vessels and keep them operational, said Royal Caribbean Cruises spokesman Jonathon Fishman.“As of now, they expect to stay in this position through the summer until our return to service plans are finalized,” Fishman said via email.The ships occasionally pull into port to refuel, but otherwise stay anchored off the coast to avoid port fees that can exceed ,000 a day.When cruise ships pull into port with passengers, companies pay significantly higher fees, ranging from ,000 to ,000 per call, Page said.There were 28 canceled calls due to the pandemic, resulting in roughly million in lost revenue for the Port of San Diego, Page said, plus a staggering ripple effect for the region’s economy.The Port of San Diego estimates that each time a cruise ship visits San Diego as a midpoint in its journey, known in the industry as a “visitation,” the call generates 0,000 in regional economic impact as travelers visit local shops, restaurants and other businesses.Each time a cruise ship starts and ends its journey in San Diego, known as a “homeport,” the regional economic loss is about million, Page said.Using those estimates, the 28 canceled calls resulted in as much as million in regional economic impact.Cruise ships are working with the CDC and other medical professionals to establish safety standards once sailing is allowed to resume, and industry insiders expect the new guidelines may mirror ones recently adopted in Europe.“The European Union has issued guidelines for cruises operating in Europe, which include things like onboard separation by age group, reduced capacity, and COVID testing of all passengers,” said Doug Shupe, a spokesman for the Auto Club of Southern California.Shupe said interest in cruising remains high among Triple-A members, but members are mostly booking cruises for 2021.“We’ve seen that our bookings for 2021, for cruises, are actually higher than what they were this time last year,” he said.He said many cruise lines offered passengers with canceled bookings credits worth up to 125% of their original value. 3313

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- At 53 years old, it's definitely an experienced stadium. From the now dried-out grass, to the fluorescent lights up above, inside the stadium in Mission Valley sits the eerie, now empty Chargers locker room. And how about the spiral ramp leading from the Plaza level to the Loge level that every kid raced up and down, a time or two. SDCCU Stadium, Qualcomm Stadium, the Murph, whatever you want to call it, the 53-year-old structure is soon to be a San Diego memory."We will start in the next month or so, disposing of the interior the things. When we knock it down, things need to be taken out, or given a new place," said Gina Jacobs, Associate Vice President of Mission Valley Development. "We're going to try and salvage some of the seats, so that we can make those available for sale."The stadium was home to many great San Diego memories. Who can forget LaDainian Tomlinson's record breaking touchdown? Steve Garvey's playoff home run in 1984? Marshall Faulk running wild one Saturday afternoon against USC?"We certainly recognize that this has been a big part of San Diego's history, and we're looking forward to our new facility being a part of San Diego's future. This is something that is going to be a better fit for San Diego State and for San Diego," Jacobs said.Over the past couple years, we've seen stadium renderings, but now we are seeing progress at the Mission Valley site, as construction is now underway."We are very committed to having the new stadium open in the fall of 2022. It's really gratifying to see that not only are we able to bring to San Diego the things that we have really been looking for, for a really long time. But to do it, in a way that we really integrated community input into the process, and bringing forward something that all of San Diego can be proud of," said Jacobs. 1847

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – Around 400,000 people in San Diego County face hunger, including one in six children. To fight and end hunger in our county, programs like Feeding San Diego bridge the gap for those facing food insecurity and getting access to donations. "We were faced with so many decisions of its either food or paying the bills," said Gabriela Sanchez. Sanchez, a mom of four with a baby on the way, struggled to put food on the table after her husband got sick. "It was hard to even explain to the kids," Sanchez said. Now, she is getting the help she needs through Feeding San Diego's program in Oceanside. The program sets up at San Luis Rey Elementary school, one of their distribution sites, so the community can get access to free healthy food. "It's been a big difference between eating fruit from the cans to eating the fresh fruit and vegetables," Sanchez said. Donate to Month of a Million MealsAccording to Matthew Jennings, Director of Communications at Oceanside Unified School District, access to fresh, healthy food, will help students succeed in the classroom. "When a child shows up for school in the morning, and their belly isn't hungry and they're not worried about what they are going to each for lunch, students and families are able to focus on their education and on their time together," Jennings said. Gabriela Sanchez says the food has made a positive impact in her kids' lives. "With Ivan and Jacob, we've seen so much improvement. They have actually been able to exceed their reading levels, their math levels. They have been able to concentrate more," Sanchez said. The impact Feeding San Diego's program has had on this family is life-changing. "They go, mom, you're always crying, and I'm like it's just a blessing," Sanchez said. Gabriela Sanchez says she is forever grateful. 1823

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Back in 1960, a young Amos Johnson Jr. was studying theology in Berkeley, Calif.It was the first time he was old enough to vote. Although he could cast a ballot without issue here in California, African Americans in southern states faced plenty of challenges."There were so many Jim Crow laws to keep blacks from voting in the south, all the civil rights in the south were really diminished," said Johnson.He describes the years leading up to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which bans racial discrimination in voting, as a time filled with protest and frustration around the country."It was a chaotic time, it was a time of great distress," he said.For the longtime San Diego pastor, the right to vote isn't something he's ever taken for granted. He says since being able to cast a ballot for himself, he's voted in every single election he could."I think that's where the power is. Voting is a real privilege, in my mind, it's an obligation if you want change," Johnson said. 1018
