Doggielover68 Posted June 16, 2020 #26 Share Posted June 16, 2020 At this rate, I just hope I'll be able to sail in January, but with a second wave on the way combined with flu season, I'm not so sure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I have cruises booked in January and February that I am starting to worry about. After the latest news I am basically resigned that cruises I have booked in September and October will be cancelled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also can't do anything when cruise ports are not open. Cruise ports re-opening or not have a big impact on this. Only time will truly tell what happens. Just cancel the rest of the year IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasalth Posted June 16, 2020 #29 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I woke up hopeful because since John posted you can now do stockholder credit by email, which I did on Saturday and it was applied to the September sailing today. That being said.. I started playing the "game" that I saw other playing (the room I wanted for our Pride cruise was available one day, then it went to the you could select the category but nothing was available for almost 2 weeks until it was actually booked) by putting holds on the cruises/rooms I wanted for 2 alternates with both mine and DH's account. All of the Carnival cancellations have been posted on a Wednesday. And oddly enough they "made" John Heald take a day off of work today from Facebook/Instagram questions. When I saw that... I thought, oh... the $&^! is probably gonna hit the fan again soon. I probably feel less effected by all this in the world because while I live in a relatively populous area (2.3+ in the greater region) we have seen less than 4000 positive cases. On an different note though, in all of this time we didn't have a single hospitalization in our Children's Hospital due to Covid until last week. So I fully realize that because of where I am and how it was handled here I just don't "get" the severity of it compared to those say in NYC or LA or New Orleans. This world is what it is now, I am honestly done worrying about it. Tomorrow if they cancel (which I believe they will honestly) I will book for December and hope for the best then! Now.. to work to explain to my boss that, hey.. I need to move my vacation days AGAIN because... life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope it is this week. My final payment for our September cruise is Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not worried about contracting the virus. I just don't want to cruise if a mask is required. If they do cancel my September cruise, I will just roll the money I paid to my January cruise and go from there. It will not be a huge surprise. I still hope they sail, but I have accepted that it might not happen and have a plan B. We have pretty much come to the realization that we will not be cruising on the Breeze in September. Not really a big disappointment at this point because of what it will look like then anyway. We have already started making plans to head up to Pigeon Forge for that week instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes fbn had it too, ncl stock getting hit after hours. They waited until market closing to make the announcement. Carnival stock is down 7%+ after hours as well. Just sold my last 100 shares. Was really anticipating the return to be delayed further. I figured I could buy it back after it drops for much less money. Will wait for a while to do that though.

We have a road trip planned to drive to Destin, Florida at the end of August to stay in a condo on the beach. It's not a cruise, but we are very excited about it. This virus will just have to run its course. On a good note, I am spending less money this year because we usually cruise at least twice a year. Once we can cruise again someday, it won't matter that we missed our cruise in September. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be a new cruise. Just thought I’d mention that. I've rolled the money from the 5 cruises that have cancelled already to cruises I had already booked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
