It is quite significant news so probably worthy of it's own thread given some users of the forum won't read every thread available. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wowzz Posted June 2, 2020 #5 Share Posted June 2, 2020 True, but there are already numerous posts on the subject . Do we have to post our comments in both threads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can obviously choose to post comments where ever you want, but with the chatter which is ongoing on other threads, this is very useful for people like me who pop in from time to time and find any info can be well buried in a thread. Not that I have any objection the the chatter. I find a lot very amusing/interesting and contribute myself at times. Just good to be able to get important info like this easily though and CC forums are very good for that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzz Posted June 2, 2020 #8 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Understood. I was thinking that as there are already over 30 posts about this issue on the other thread, there would be too much duplication. Seems we are all posting on the other thread anyway! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare P&O SUE Posted June 2, 2020 #9 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Husband came home from work an hour ago so we’re discussing our options. Allowed myself to be sad for a while but glad the decision has been taking out of my hands, it’s been going round and round my head for weeks now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Morgan Posted June 2, 2020 #10 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Bizarre to think i was reading the other thread this morning where someone referenced the ill informed page on CC which cited P&O as returning 01 August, which of course was referred to as rubbish...oh how prophetic that remark was!! Carnival Cruises might still think they can sail some of their ships on 01 August from select US ports but I think the cold hand of reality is going to slap them as it should especially given the current climate in the US with the burning, looting, rioting, etc. all in spite of a highly contagious virus with no effective treatment or vaccine... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 4 weeks in Spain booked for November and really not at all sure we want to go, given we would have to fly and are in the older age group. Will be a while before we know about that, but does not stop it becoming something that leaves me with underlying concern. Having certainty over what will happen will help, even if the news is not what we want. Good luck with whatever you decide about your P&O booking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, if there are two threads on the same topic and you want to make a comment, which one do you use? I'm sticking with the existing thread, as that is where the ongoing discussions are taking place.

I try not to do that on the Celebrity posts as our American cousins don't seem to appreciate flippant posts and don't know where Durham is.😂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mad thing is on the news last night they were saying places like Portugal wanted to open up to us Brits but we don’t like flying so looks like it will be a shorter UK break for us instead of the cruise or just some day trips from home! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She should be able to get into Lisbon, but perhaps Porto may be a bit tight. We will volunteer to go as long as the entertainment looks good 😁.
