Pandora1958 Posted November 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2015 It's on the ship. Day out of Bermuda. Recognition. Party cancelled for tonight. Too many sick. Think the number last night was 45. Day 9 of 14 so far so good. Wish us luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DOJO466 Posted November 26, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I Believe OP is sailing on Riviera. They have had to cancel the "country fair" also. She mentions she is on day 9 of 14 and they are en route to Bermuda. Kazu has mentioned the virus in her blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At sea now and will get to Bermuda on the 28th. Hope all goes well and nobody else gets sick. Sounds like they have a lot of cleaning to do. I know that this rarely if ever happens on Oceania.

ChatKat in Ca. Posted November 27, 2015 #15 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Earlier this year it was on Marina in May. Sorry to hear that this crossing is not staffed with the entertainment it was two years ago. The cruise director that left at the end of the cruise was one of the weaker directors in my opinion. Other than Trivia, there was not much happening on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora1958 Posted November 27, 2015 Author #16 Share Posted November 27, 2015 signature has: "Oceania Regatta Nov '15 Mayan Mystique" We wer offered upgrade and $ incentive to move over. Yes, we're on Riviera. Now they've offered complimentary medical care for those who are or might be affected. Terrace cafe still crowed in am. They're wiping down everything. Crew is affected also.... Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pinotlover Posted November 27, 2015 #18 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Here's the question: If this ship hits dock, does its normal turnaround for the next cruise, and the virus hits the new passengers, I'm guessing the s**t hits the fan, at that point! Not sure of its final destination on that next cruise, but, if a US Port, my guess is the US Coast Guard could shut the ship down until they were satisfied with the sanitation of the ship. A lot of potential Christmas cruisers would be very upset either way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure they will embark us late for the 12/2, or deep clean while enroute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the ship would be shut down unless the percentage of sick people is very high then maybe I think one of the main stream lines had several hundred sick people & did postpone the sailing for a day while they did a deep cleaning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to do whats right, even if it delays a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been on a ship with Noro before and boarded one that had it. Normally, the ship undergoes a "deep cleaning". It delays the boarding time for those coming on by quite a bit so those boarding would be wise to check so that they don't spend hours in the terminal. None of the ships have been shut down but I have not sailed O before so I could be wrong. On my other ships with Noro we were never refused entry into ports either, so who knows?

Pandora1958 Posted November 28, 2015 Author #23 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Update: no Bermuda..won't let us in. A few more nights at sea then overnight in Nassau before returning to Miami. No rare foods. (Glad we're not going to Polo tonight. Well done steak?) No sushi. No chef's classes. No sunshine today. Second cruise out of many with norovirus.

(Glad we're not going to Polo tonight. Well done steak?) No sushi. No chef's classes. No sunshine today. Second cruise out of many with norovirus. Well except for the no sunshine you got it right. Sun is shining and already people are around the pool, which probably should be closed, but it's probably got so much bleach in it that it doesn't matter. Just talked to another CC'er that I saw talking with the Captain, and although he(The Captain) didn't give a number, he said the number of reports are coming down and things are getting better. While that is good news I'd like to know what percentage we were at and what it is now. We have extra enrichment lectures today, I think I'll have extra rations of rum instead.
