My booking now shows canceled.

No.  You can no longer book Allure or Symphony.  They can't have a revenue sailing without the test cruise. Now we know the dates of the test.

Allure July sailings have been cancelled.

  Yippee. Just got approval from the CDC for our simulated sailings on Allure of the Seas for July 27 to July 29 from Port Canaveral and Symphony of the Seas sailing from Miami on August 1st to 3rd.

From Rick Scott

 Following my repeated calls for clear guidance and timeline for cruise resumptions, I was glad to see the CDC finally issue updated guidance in April 2021, allowing the cruise industry to resume sailing out of U.S. ports by July 2021. This new guidance from the CDC is a welcome change in course that will provide desperately needed clarity for so many families and employers in Florida and across the nation. However, I will not let up. The CDC has treated America’s cruise industry terribly over the past year and I will continue my fight to hold the CDC accountable and make sure we reach a quick and equitable solution that keeps people safe and protects jobs in Florida and across the nation.

I don’t think anything will be decided on the day of the hearing.  I posted a link to the CDCs answer to the plaintiff’s complaint on another thread titled Texas joins lawsuit — not looking good for FL, TX or AK.

Where can you rent a scooter online and have it delivered to your ship?  I have a sudden need for one.

Thanks

I want to try the beach bar with runway views. Has anyone done this?

Looking for a private excursion to Jerez and the horse show. Any suggestions?

Can anyone recommend parking close to the port?

Thanks, I did find that post. We have booked a 9 night Caribbean cruise and and looking to get the cost of the unlimited plan.

What plans are offered and what are the costs?

What is the cost of the unlimited plan? What other plans are offered?

There was unlimited internet on the Allure when I went in August.

What is the cost of unlimited access?

Yesterday I emailed both Diamond Tours and Garry Jollymore. I received an answer from Diamond Tours this morning. They designed the trip for us for just Peggy's Cove and the Titanic cemetery (which is all we want to see). Cost is $130.00 (CAN $) for the two of us. Still waiting on the other quote.

Garry charges $200 for a 5 hr tour up to 6 passengers.

Garry told me, if I had a large group, that he has other drivers available with "vans and sedans" but wanted to know as soon as possible so that he "could secure the best guides available." Sounds to me like he wouldn't have a problem with your 20.

 

I've been waiting to hear back from him, too, with a question I've had. Maybe he's out of touch for a couple of days.

I've been in touch with him today. He can take up to 6, but it may be tight. Right now, it is just the two of us. We may just keep it that way.

I just booked for 10/15/09. Thanks for the tip.

ML

I just booked the ship's tour. Are there any direct booking options?

ML

My partner (of 3 years) and I love cruising as well. We have never been on an Olivia cruise because we agree with the fact that we can cruise several times vs. once on Oliva.

 

We cruised 4 times last year and we are already booked on two this year (hoping for 3)! We have never had any problems on any cruise line and we have sailed on Carnival, Princess & Celebrity. I think people are realizing more and more that we are just like everyone else...we love to have a good time! :p

 

Personally, we like been around ALL types of people. Although it's nice to be around "family" sometimes, it's not necessary to be around them exclusively. I guess we look at it like we wouldn't want to live in a world with only one type of people, so why cruise that way?! Being a black lesbian couple, we find ourselves being the minority most of the time anyway. But it's okay because we love meeting all types of new people.

 

Okay, I'm off my soap box now...LOL! Enjoy the rest of the day and happy cruising everyone!

 

Angel :)

Well said. I agree with you. We love to cruise. We have traveled with Olivia five times, the last being in Nov 08. It is a very unique experience, but there is a premium to pay for it.

ML

We will miss the pre-party, but plan to go to the meet and migle at sailaway.

ML

We are also booked on this cruise. It will be our first Olivia Cruise. We are very excited....

Julie & Julie:)

We have done Olivia in the past and loved the trips. Look foward to meeting you. Where are you staying the night before the cruise?

ML

Found a great deal, so we coulddn't resist this cruise. Anyone else booked?

ML

Anyone booked the Oasis of the Seas?

ML

Hi all,

Is anyone going on the Mariner of the Seas August 24,08??:D email me if yes.

I will be getting on when you get off.

ML

ML~Until you get picture of 7177, why don't you put 7177 on hold. You can always change cabins if you decide.

 

When are you cruising and what ship are you looking at?

Infinity 2/14/10. I have 7177 on hold waiting for a picture.

Thanks

ML

There are NONE all of deck 7 is 2b cabins other than those listed at a higher class (CC or Fv) I think you've been given this connection before in this thread but here it is again :http://www.geocities.com/mahdnc/Cabinpix.html Look down all the Millennium class ships...check out the different cabins and balconies...all the ships are the same deck layout (Millennium' date=' Summit, Infinity & Constellation) There are several photos of all the different classes of cabins! Some people did post photos of these but can't seem to get them on searc. Both are slightly larger balconies (try to "google" for then it's surprising what turns up online!)[/quote']

 

 

Sorry, I meant 2B. On the deck plan, the look like they have a larger balcony. Wanted to know if these balconies are larger than the 16 2Cs on deck 6. Right now, both are available.
