It looks like the Mar 6th cruise has been canceled since the ship is still moored in Ft Lauderdale. Also it looks like they are going to sail from Ft Lauderdale if they go at all.

How do I find the approval for Pearl Mist to go to Cuba? I have tried many sites but I can not find anything.

I called the company on Monday to ask about the brief itinerary we received. They said that the President of the company was in Cuba finalizing the shore excursions and the timing. However, I still can not find where they have approval to go to Cuba. I got the impression that they have received many calls about the brief itinerary. They said they would send out a more complete itinerary later. I feel sorry for the first group out on Mar 6th.

They have have free wine and beer with lunch and dinner. There is a cocktail hour from 5:30 t0 6:30. But as I understand it this is only time alcohol is served. I would never have booked this cruise knowing this-we are not big drinkers but if I come back on board at 3 from a hot climate I want a cold beer. Since we are traveling with 2 other couple I know we will be spending a lot of time catching up.

According to the reviews I have read "luxury" is questionable. i.e.I have never heard of a ship not having a bar. I do know that the home office customer service is awful.

I checked people to people website and all I could find on Pearl Seas were old press releases from Jul 2015. It does state in the brochure that if the approval does not come through Pearl Seas would make a total refund. I guess we will have to wait until the Mar 6th sailing to see what happens.

We are also booked on the Mar 26 cruise to Cuba. i just received the some information giving a very basic itinerary. However, I found the information lacking a lot of details. No shore excursions were mentioned, no weather information, etc. I have asked if there would be beach or snockel time but I have not received an answer. I would also like more information on the cabin-hair dryer? mini frig? Since there is not a bar on the ship I would like to know how that works.
