I’m in Northern California as well. I follow two cruise lines Facebook groups and every day there are a lot of post about feeling crappy the day they got home and it was covid. I’m currently working the California primary because I had covid too close to the cruise I’m supposed to be on this week. We’re all masked. Here’s todays mask set. i guess I’m now super boosted.

I had to cancel our Alaska cruise this week because I missed the Covid days limit. I cancelled 2 days before, and I don't know if we're getting a refund or FCC. I don't really care, as long as it one or the other. They did cancel my shore excursion. Oh, well, 5 power up points gone. We rebooked for a couple months later. It helped take the sting out of it that two days before we cancelled, they changed the one port I wanted to go to. New cruise has that. And it also helps that it's the California Primary and I can work that instead.

Thanks for doing this. I'm supposed to be on the Eclipse, but got Covid, so couldn't go. I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself (and royally angry - 7 cruises so far and I have no idea how I got it). So I will vicariously enjoy your cruise. My silver lining is that I'm a California poll worker, and it's our primary, so I'm working this week instead. And we did rebook for July.

I've found that for what we book, the difference is upward of 300.00 per person. I usually book the non-refundable because I can save a lot of money and if I ever cancel the non refundable part is 100.00 per person, so I consider it sort of like insurance, ie I'd have to cancel a bunch before what I lose is even close to what I save. I did once lose the 200.00 I had a cruise cancel, moved it to Alaska and then decided I didn't really want Alaska when I found a better Caribbean. They charged for the second move. Oh, well, I'm still way ahead on everything else.

Thank you. Whales maybe. Northern lights? Not in July.

Interesting discussion. I was supposed to fly to Vancouver yesterday to go on the Eclipse, but got covid a week and a half ago, and was still positive at 6:30 yesterday morning. DH, who immediately moved to the couch at night, wears a mask, and eats separately was negative as of Thursday. I tried to get X to price protect us onto a different sailing (there was an itinerary change that I didn't like) but they wouldn't do it. So we booked for more money but did get 100.00 OBC for the book on board that was on this cruise. I guess it's better to cancel before than try to get home with it. And my silver lining, such as it is, is that I'm usually a poll worker, and I get to work more days because I'm not on a cruise. I'm definitely going to look into the COR. Thanks, Jim.

I learned they have restaurants.

I got the same offline email. I'm running it and going out for a walk.

I had a frozen screen. Now it's a black screen since I relaunched it.
