    This is very scary, for those of us traveling from the US. But we are even mor concerned about being quarantined.

    In raw numbers, the only port with a virus patient is Costa Rica with one. It's safer than staying in the US.

    Will they have enough room for a large crowd?

    Yes, They have about 5--6 long cars and one of which was the club car. The say that they always have room! I took the train previously (cruise), and we were in the club car. 

     

    The mall also gives you a LOT of choices for food (3 food courts, each one on 2 levels) as well as restaurants outside of the mall. 

     

    I also like the fact that the Wyndham starts the free breakfast at 6AM, so we have time to get served.

    What would you recommend as the best way to get to Colon on the morning of the 17th?

    Or would you recommend we get a place to stay in Colon rather than Panama City? 

    (Not wanting anything fancy or expensive, but safe and clean). 

     

    DO NOT STAY IN COLON! It's a nasty place! We will be staying at the Wyndham Albrook which is attached to the largest mall in Latin America. The Holiday Inn Panama Canal is also nice.

     

    The reason we are staying there is to catch the 7AM Panama Canal Railway. It's a one hour trip and costs $25 per person.  There will be at least a dozen of us on that train. Tickets are purchased at the station that morning.

    I have been on 9 Pullmantur Cruises. The first was a 15-day transatlantic from Bilbao to Panama.

    The Colon-Lisbon trip on the Monarch will be my 3rd cruise with Pullmantur and that ship. 

    Our first cruise with them was the Bilbao to Colon as well. Was yours with us on the nearly EMPTY ship to Lisbon in 2016? It was also really schadenfreude when we couldn't stop in Aruba due to a little ol' CAT 4 HURRICANE MATTHEW! Boy, were those people PISSED! Well played Captain!

    Caught up with him 'bout six o'clock the next mornin'

    Naked, swinging on the windmill

    He said he flew up there

    I had to fly up and get him down

    He was about half crazy

    I have a question I know they are doing away with the illusionarium show soon but we had booked it for our sailing Apr 16th and I am just wondering if it will still be happening or we should expect a cancellation

     

    They will have over two weeks to retool the theater on the TA on April 30th. I would be VERY SURPRISED that your show would be cancelled. Neither Illusionarium nor the Cirque Dreams is offered to us on the TA.
