  1. Did i miss something? Do we know for sure the person was drunk. I fell off a curb recently and i wasn’t drunk so i just wondered.
  2. Just to add as my parents are older i am glad the cruise company gives good care but not sure a cruise is the right place for older people with health conditions. My dad got pneumonia on a viking ship and he said they helped a lot.
  3. I just want to say i completely understand the ops frustrations. Heck, i even get frustrated when my trip on the skytrain (vancouver’s form of a subway) gets delayed by a medical emergency. My sense of it is there are many people travelling who shouldn’t because they have some sort of underlying health condition. That is particularly marked on cruises where you may have older people cruising with multiple health ailments. I’ll probably get slammed for my comments, but there it is. Thanks for the detailed explanation about why the other types of rescues through small boat or helicopter aren’t possible. Maybe why you should reconsider a cruise with a lot of sea days if you have health problems or just reconsider cruising altogether.
  4. Just an added comment that i never received my fcc so i phoned and was escalated to guest relations. You can try and get your concern escalated.
  5. I’m canadian and i received 65.00 as a refund (i didn’t understand why i received it so that explains it)and 200.00 as fcc. So thats the correct amount in canadian for a cruise with confidence fcc (265.00). I never had insurance so can’t speak to that. What was the date of your fcc? Mine was the date of issuance and i thought it was supposed to be the date of the cruise. The whole process isn’t transparent.
  6. There is an entire thread on enchantment of the seas here There was another thread too if you searched.
  7. I think i'd just skip the drink. Couldn't you get a drink later and just take it somewhere else to drink like by the pool?
  8. There is actually an entire thread on enchantment I have reservations on enchantment but the multi glacier itinerary sure looks great so i booked,
  9. I checked a bunch of sailings and they are double again. That was a quick promo!
  10. Thanks, i was looking at the rcl vaccine requirements page and it looks to me like the little bc vaccine card you get is acceptable. I would still like to sort out the federal vaccine record for them though.
  11. I’m wondering if you need your federal vaccine proof for the cruise or you can use the little vaccine card you get? My dads phone doesn’t work and he doesn’t have access to gateway. Is there any other way to access the federal vaccine card if you are from bc? Or could i set it up on my mom’s phone? They are going on a cruise soon and i don’t know if they’ll get a new phone in time. Or maybe if he phoned gateway? I’m not sure how to help.
  12. My post seems to have gotten lost. I’d really appreciate knowing how rough it is even if you haven’t been on salmon bake.
  13. I’m wondering how rough it is in stephens passage? In the past i haven’t enjoyed whale watching because its been rough. Also wondering if salmon bake is worth it, it doesn’t seem that much more expensive.
  14. No i'm not staying home but travel is a lot riskier now and people who don't acknowledge and prepare for that will get in trouble.
  15. However are covid protocols announced somewhat in advance so you know the protocols before final payment?
  16. Ok I’ll quit worrying! Just alarmed me to think of being stranded in alaska.
  17. Thanks. Yes its a refundable deposit will just be sorry if i can’t take trip.
  18. I thought i was smart to book an alaskan cruise next june as i’m from vancouver and could quarantine in vancouver. But what if they don’t allow you to quarantine on the ship and force you to quarantine at the next port. Can you imagine being stranded in alaska and trying to get home from one of those little towns? Am i worrying over nothing here? Do you think they will let you stay on the ship? I guess it makes sense as you did pay for the cruise but who knows. Maybe no partial refund anymore? I wonder when they will announce their policy.
  19. Thanks. So if i'm from vancouver and take an alaskan cruise from vancouver i could quarantine in vancouver as i don't have to fly?
  20. I’m a bit confused. If you get covid in the states would you quarantine 5 or 10 days?
  21. This is great! It looks to me like mexican riviera aren’t included but definitely caribbean through end of february.
  22. I'm still not clear if you only get 165.00 back or the full 265.00 back?
  23. Thank you! I don't like not having the invoice.
  24. Thanks. I booked online as the room i wanted didn't seem to be available over the phone. Are you supposed to receive an invoice like when you book over the phone. I was able to link the cruise so know its booked but can't find the invoice.
