We are planning to pay, take the FCC and transfer the booking to 2022 or 2023. Just wondering what you will do if at final balance time, P&O have not cancelled? Will you just transfer to another cruise under the flexible arrangements they are currently offering - assuming they are still on offer then?

Malcolm142 Posted May 22, 2020 Author #27 Share Posted May 22, 2020 That is one of our thoughts in paying the balance in September only for it to be cancelled after we have paid. ATM the cost of SanFran leg of world cruise in 2022(Aurora) is a few hundred pounds more for a deluxe balcony even with a 125% credit on 2021 cruise. 2023 price not yet available . Although I have been to SanFran several times my OH has not and we wanted to have a week there at the end of the cruise before flying back. Decision time for us will be 18th Sept. I will not be keen for us to have £7.5k lodged with P&O for one or two years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could allow pre-boarding and post-excursion testing. So what happens if pax test positive in foreign ports? P&O would have to notify the port authorities, and make provision for the quarantining and treatment for those affected, and probably face the fact that future ports on the itinerary will deny visiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading a number of articles, cruise ships seem to be planning to have quarantine areas on board when the resume. Whether that is a selection of cabins in one part of the ship or in the medical centre, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read on BBC that in Austria, new arrivals into the country can be exempted from quarantine if they pass a while u wait Covid test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorted today with my TA; they will transfer the booking to 2022 to as similar itinerary as possible; even offered an upgrade as incentive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems a good result for you. At the moment there doesn't seem to be a similar itinerary to mine in 2022 showing on the website but I might contact my TA just in case.
