Don't worry- you are not going anywhere on May 9th unfortunately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnecessary risk right now is foolishness and terribly inconsiderate to everyone around you. Risk is a facet of life. Every endeavour has an element of risk.

Rare hcat Posted March 23, 2020 #207 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Topic is when will the next cancellations be announced? What cruises do folks have booked in the next few months after April 10th ? (Esp ones where final payment dates have passed) Thinking out loud sort of : What do folks think about Jan 2021? That's when we hope to use our Future Cruise Credit...If that's too soon, we'll have to use it closer to the exp date just like many others! Wondering f we should book a short cruise in Oct 2021, as a back up to burn our credit????? Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
googler55 Posted March 23, 2020 #208 Share Posted March 23, 2020 8 hours ago, poffles said: I know we are all likely to get it eventually no matter what we do, some of us just need to isolate so as to not contribute right now so this can have a more flattened curve impact. I am healthy as others have stated, but my doctor once told me in the past with regards to the flu, that I am a carrier and that has stuck with me. I was one of those that said, I don't get sick, I never get the flu, so I never got the flu shot ... after him saying that to me I woke up and started getting the flu shot and have ever since, always in consideration of those around me, close family that has gone through chemo with weak immune systems, elderly parents, friend very susceptible to bronchial issues. Excellent point, poffles. Thanks for sharing about the carrier bit. We can't look after the planet, which is what had been a/the major news story of the past year, if we can't look after each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOHN474 Posted March 23, 2020 #214 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Boris Johnson just addressed UK. He announced mandatory stay at home. Just a few exceptions, like 1 short trip out to exercise, and food shopping if can't be delivered for example. Time for Celebrity to cancel TA to Southampton, don't you think? I already cancelled under CWC Original terms, wish I had waited, this TA should now be cancelled imminently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandgeezer Posted March 23, 2020 #218 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Might be awhile, their main competition, such as the Princess brand and MSC brand were smart enough, after examining all the facts available, made the responsible decision for their customers and employees, to pull the plug for 60 days, not just 30. At the very last minute they jumped on the bandwagon. Now there is no one to lead the way, and they don’t know what to do. Things are much worse than before and there is no hope for a solution in the near future, yet the only response is “we’re working on it”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
