IloveCatsandCruises Posted March 8, 2020 #52 Share Posted March 8, 2020 12 minutes ago, rudoja00 said: What is the morale like? Are they at least serving booze and keeping the party going? Yes everything is open as usual. WiFi Internet is offline. Buffet and ice cream is being served by crew. No self serve. And it’s cold outside. After they opened the buffet for lunch, as you would expect, lines were very very long with waits of 1 hour or more. I am a worrier so it’s hard for me to relax without an actual timeline. Cruise director just now announced (540 pm)that there is still no news on test results or when we may get off. Would they really put us off the ship at this hour to travel at night or be stuck at the airport?!?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens you'll receive a refund of 1/7 of your cruise fare, Cheers if you bought it online, prepaid gratuities, etc as refundable obc. Not what you wanted, but Carnival has no control of the situation. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sillyjilly Posted March 8, 2020 #62 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Royal Princess out of San Pedro just canceled their cruise that was supposed to leave today. Don't know why yet. I hope this doesn't happen to all of you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums I believe one of the crew members was on the Diamond Princess that had some people test positive for the virus. 19 were crew. Apparently one of the crew members is now on the Royal, but showing no signs of illness. Don't know if that's why it was cancelled or if it's some kind of engine problems. Everything is hush hush and there were police brought down to the port. Edited March 8, 2020 by Sillyjilly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Royal princess had the same itinerary as the panorama. I think they debarked late but no other issues. They were not at Long Beach port, but a different nearby port. We saw them every day even sea days Edited March 8, 2020 by IloveCatsandCruises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another possibility is San Pedro if there's an open berth. This whole situation could get even uglier. Try to hang in there whether you're waiting to get off or get on.😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
