cruiserchuck Posted March 8, 2020 #26 Share Posted March 8, 2020 If the crew member possibly was exposed, what about the 2,500 passengers who disembarked earlier today? Are they going to quarantine the B2B passengers and crew still on the ship? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without more, I think it was very unfair to cancel this cruise for no seemingly justifiable reason. Obviously there was a justifiable reason. We just don't know what it was. Princess is not in the business of canceling cruises for no reason. Relax! Edited March 8, 2020 by frugaltravel 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still a mystery why the cruise was cancelled. I heard the crew member is healthy no symptoms but still waiting on official test results. Better safe than sorry. Princess does need a third ship with infected passengers or crew to quarantine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wl2cruise Posted March 8, 2020 #29 Share Posted March 8, 2020 No reason was given for the cancellation. Local news helicopter is flying overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fear is that others outside of the Princess caused the cruise to be cancelled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fear is that others outside of the Princess caused the cruise to be cancelled. That might be true from a post on the roll call but my advice is the same. And my statement is the same - Princess wouldn't cancel a cruise without a justifiable reason. Being forced to cancel from other authorities is a justifiable reason 😀.

I haven’t read the roll call. I’m just thinking back to how the decision was made at the drop of a hat to stop all cruises to Cuba. I’m just worried our government has quietly made some type of decision like that. I’m on the Crown Princess T/A to Rome embarking this March 26, and all of this has me so worried. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for my typo. I too think the feds may have told them or strongly suggested to cancel. There are b2b passengers and crew that may test negative today and test positive tomorrow.

Fortunately i refuse to worry about or stress over things I can't control. Hopefully your cruise will have a good outcome! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is extremely rare that an entire cruise is cancelled let alone on embarkation day. I really feel bad for everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wl2cruise Posted March 8, 2020 #44 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I’m guessing here maybe around 1000 where in the terminal did not look like the ship would sail full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wl2cruise Posted March 8, 2020 #45 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Just received a email from Princess reason for the sailing Cancellation was a Grand crew member transferred to Royal 2 weeks ago. Crew member is NOT showing any symptoms. Princess was cleared to sail yesterday but today they where asked to test the crew member which could not be completed In time so a no sail order was issued. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad they are doing testing instead of just assuming the crew member did not have the virus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except testing this person just once will not really rule out much. Obviously, if he tests positive, he needs to be isolated. If he tests negative, he could still be infected, but early in the course of infection. So I have no idea what the plan is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
