There are plenty of stories on Cruise Critic of people missing or skipping muster drills (intentionally or otherwise) by staying in their stateroom and being missed. While they can be kicked off the ship, they’re usually assigned a makeup drill or just given muster instructions on paper. I’ve certainly been on Disney cruises where a stateroom or two at my muster station has been a no-show.Shouldn't participation always be 100% because the drill is mandatory?

Just got off the NCL Pride of America on January 28, 2023. Full blown muster drill was conducted prior to th boat sailing.Why did Disney switch back to the old way of doing muster drills in person if other cruise lines have not also switched back? Just curious if anyone knows the story behind the switch?
