We're booked on the Island's Northern Lights itinerary which is a R/T Southampton departing Oct 5th. We made this cut and are hoping for the best, but I guess time will tell. Hopefully by then, vaccines will be widely available throughout Europe and the curve will have flattened considerably.

Ken the cruiser...we're also booked on the Island on October 5. My fingers and toes are crossed I really hope we can go but I know I shouldn't hold my breath. I'm due for my 2nd vaccine and hubby should get his in April/May. If vaccines are needed with some sort of passport we're all for it!!

Our daughter's high school band teacher was a trumpet player in a Princess Cruise band and during their set breaks, when canned music was played, they were encouraged to go and dance and mingle with passengers. He met a lovely American gal and eventually she became his wife!! Love can happen aboard!!

100% yes!! Won't cruise without one!! I've had my 1st. will get my 2nd around March 14. Hubby should get his by April.

I'm looking at some of the "3 for Free" deals for May 2021, 17 days on the Sun Princess. Japan to Vancouver, with pre-cruise time in Japan. However, many of the balcony rooms in areas we like to book in, appear to be sold out which is very off putting when we are still 2 years away from the trip!! I'll watch it for a bit. Next cruise is on the Emerald Princess November 3 - December 4....Barcelona to Los Angeles. First trans-Atlantic.

Toured with Dora three years ago. It was excellent!! Can’t go wrong and in fact, will be doing Panama Canal from Fort Lauderdale to L.A. in November 2019 so will quite likely book something with Dora again!!

Thanks to all for the rave reviews of Richard. I can't wait for his trivia!! LOL!! I'm a bit nutty for trivia so bring it on!!

I see Richard Joseph is currently on the Island Princess. Has anyone sailed with him before? We are on board March 6 - 21, 2015.

We did Jolly Pirates in Aruba in 2011. We booked privately prior to going on the cruise and it was awesome. Tons of fun. Great snorkelling. Good rum punch. The rope swing was a ton of fun. We got a hilarious video of my 6'8" hubby going off of it!! I'd book with them again. We are planning to book Panama Canal for March 2015 LA to Fort Lauderdale. Has a stop at Aruba again.
