Imagine how much money they are losing, on top of the refit. It's disappointing but we'll just wait until next year. Only decision is where to now.

Thoughts with all whose health is impacted, this was just a holiday after all...

Checked the NCL app today and our Hong Kong/China/Japan cruise end of may wasn't there. Phoned NCL and they said all NCL Spirit cruises canceled and I should wait for contact by my travel agent.

We are due to pay our cruise balance this Friday for our 22nd May Hong Hong/Shanghai/China/Japan cruise. This morning the UK Governement issued their updated travel advice to 'only essential travel'. I have checked with our insurance company and this means if we go ahead and make the final payment then we are not covered for any cancellation (including our own illness). I have spoken to the agent today and they have put the final payment date back by 4 weeks. Hopefully in that time either, NCL will have made alternative arrangements for the cruise or the spread of the outbreak will be better understood and the travel advice relaxed. Sadly I fully expect neither to occur.
