Mapleleafforever Posted August 20, 2020 #29 Share Posted August 20, 2020 With everyone saying no way I'll give an alternate answer and say......maybe. It all depends on if they can get the crew back in time. This is a 4 nighter after all and we've heard rumblings that shorter cruises will proceed first. Then again they also said the ships won't be full at the start so even if the cruise sails not everyone who booked will be able to sail. Furthermore we don't know if cruisers will have to self isolate for 14 days after returning. On second thought, yeah, there's zero chance this cruise happens.

jwc1027 Posted August 20, 2020 #30 Share Posted August 20, 2020 No hopes, wishes, prayers nor divine intervention is going to save the cruise industry for remainder of 2020. A vaccine by years end may give some optimism for 2021 but prob, second half, IMO . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just L&S'ed our 2020 Xmas Holiday cruise to 2021. the problem is because Xmas itself falls on a major embark / disembark day, there are very few cruises that are actually on the water over Xmas, only 2 I believe, so pickings are pretty slim. Moving much before or after really defeats the purpose and most of those are so so much cheaper than an actual holiday cruise I truely also believe no more cruises this year and probably not in early 2021 either.

Not sure where you are looking but Christmas falls on a Saturday and the few ships that had regular departures on Saturdays had their regular itineraries changed. All the ships are at sea on Christmas Day, there are none (at least of Royals ships) that have embarkation on Christmas Day Edited August 20, 2020 by Ourusualbeach 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Christmas cruises sail, it means my daughter will still be in school (in the building, I mean) and will be on the way to having a normal senior year with a prom and a graduation ceremony...And it means that she'll be able to have a normal freshman year in college next fall...And it means that my older daughter will be able to have her wedding that she had to postpone to next fall.

Other lines have cancelled through Dec 15. Likely it will go beyond that. Even if some ships sail after December 15 from the US it will be a limited number. Waves of cancellations will continue. Not like they are going to flip a switch and sail every ship December 16..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan33579 Posted August 21, 2020 #40 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I have multiple cruises booked between January and July 2021 (all booked before the pandemic on RCI and Celebrity) that I highly doubt will cruise. With that in mind, I think the chances of any cruises from a US port in 2020 are zero percent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CDC is never going to approve US sailing from Florida with their rate of covid. They don't care if the numbers are real or fake or what news station is reporting it or who the covid virus is voting for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catlady66 Posted August 26, 2020 #50 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Not only do I think your chances are GREAT, we just booked a Christmas & New Years Cruise on RC. My opinion-- the corona & all the trappings attached to it disappear November 4th. What do you have to lose by booking it now? You'll get your $ back if cancelled and if you wait til November to book, there will be no room left at the inn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
