MommaBear55 Posted June 22, 2020 #26 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I hope you have a very mild case and recover soon. How lucky you are not to be on a cruise ship right now, as you can heal at home and not be worried that you could have infected several hundred people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suesnake2002 Posted June 22, 2020 #27 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Oh gosh, if they cancel all the way to march 21. What a personal mess that will be for me. That cruise will have payments from 3 diff fcc's. Not all covid related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. 😃 I do agree that these type of accommodations are worthy of the YC moniker, but with the new classification, their price also went up substantially. I’m glad that we got to experience them when they cost a fraction of what they cost now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateUpNorth Posted June 22, 2020 #29 Share Posted June 22, 2020 3 hours ago, HaveWeMetYet said: Carnival ship cancellations released today. All San Francisco sailings through 2020 All Carnival Sunrise sailings through and including October 19, 2020 All Carnival Legend sailings through and including October 30, 2020 All Carnival Radiance sailings through and including November 1, 2020 All Carnival Spirit Alaska, Hawaii, & Trans-Pacific sailings through and including October 6, 2020 All Other Ships sailings through and including September 30, 2020 Not familiar with Carnival ships/sailings. Are the cancellations through Oct aimed at specific itineraries and/or destinations? Just curious why they got a longer timeframe? I would assume the San Francisco "through 2020" is a similar reasoning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemomof3 Posted June 22, 2020 #31 Share Posted June 22, 2020 While not "official" I was looking at Royal's website and it looks like cruises are not able to be booked before the September 15 2020 date as of now. Late September are still showing as of now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, because I want to cruise and I'm an optimist. I still have 5 cruises on the books. It might be time to become a realist. 😊 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mek Posted June 23, 2020 #37 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I think anyone who continues to book new cruises is nuts. (Not talking about Lift and Shift or rebooking cancelled cruises.) I have a November Oasis cruise that I booked last November with a NRD so I'm on the hook for that, but for the life of me I don't understand why people are trying to second guess what is going to happen and are actually putting money down for a cruise that has a high probability of not sailing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually tested positive for covid yesterday feels like the flu Royal should pick a date they know for sure they can resume instead of this month by month crap it’s annoying dirty planes and casinos are open I don’t see one worker cleaning slots but cruise lines are closed makes. NO sense if I had a comp cruise with Royal from caisno booked for aug can I switch it to next year? They should go honor that!!! Here's my take on all this. People are becoming way too lax on masking and distancing in the wake of the grand 'reopening' of society. I understand the need for it for business and economy - and even from a societal standpoint since we are social creatures by nature; however, it CAN be done in such a way as to continue the goal to 'flatten the curve' (anyone remember that?). I'm totally ticked off about what I'm hearing and reading - that of people in stores unmasked - including employees. (A local employee - let alone a friend as well - of a store I've been frequenting for 40 years just told me it's "back to business as usual - no masking or distancing". I was dumbfounded. So, as a loyal, longtime customer, I was simply told to "order online and do curbside pick-up". Seriously? For one thing, the store's website is primarily an advertising one. There is no merchandise to be ordered.) I will not shop there anymore anytime soon. You want to start cruising again? I wouldn't hold your breath. Globally, new cases are at an all-time high the past few days. Several US states are now apparently hot spots with Florida's numbers in particular zooming like a jet. As the vacation season unfolds during the summer and more businesses keep reopening, watch the "curve" turn into more of a vertical line. UNLESS all this changes and people get back to the idea of doing all they can to stop the spread, I can't see cruising resuming ANY time within the near future - even going into next year or beyond. This is not rocket science, but rather common sense that is being thrown to the wind. I wouldn't be surprised if many cruise lines don't even survive this.

Sure...and then watch it change to October 15, then November.....etc. unless things improve drastically. All the 'herd immunity' supporters should be happy, since that's what it seems to heading towards anyway. Social darwinism.

I've asked Jimbo this same question, Do you personally know someone in Carnival hierarchy or CDC that has divulged that info to you? Unless one sits in on those meetings , WE don't know what goes on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheJourney Posted June 23, 2020 #44 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Gatour...makes sense. I really haven't seen much news regarding any of this other than most of what people post here, which is largely conjecture. I anticipate hearing something from Viking (we have a B2B booked in January) by fall, I would think anyway, so as to help people know how to plan - or cancel.

Their ship Grand Celebration is the only one so far to get a green status from the CDC, they’ve had their plan of action posted on their website for weeks now, and so far they haven’t canceled their July 25th start date. Unless they get a direct mandate from the CDC not to sail on that date, I actually think that they may pull it off.

Definitely keeping an eye on them. Quick 2 night cruises may be the way to get the ball rolling again in the cruise industry. If they are successful, It will definitely entice others to get their ducks in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
