Just the likely ones that should be open. >> FWIW, I have not researched. Some of those may be closed and I'm confident if so, someone will be along shortly to correct me. EECC Travels just posted pictures on their FB page of them in Cozumel at the Hard Rock Cafe. There is live music on the beach there. Not saying it's right or wrong, just saying Cozumel is definitely open for tourism 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We go to the Wet Lizard for Belikin beer and nachos every time we go there and always have a great time. I have many a cold Belikin there. Fine beer in a fine location.

cellfree Posted September 13, 2020 Author #53 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Miami and Port Canaveral are the only ports showing up today September 13 for November, oh oh, countdown is on, it's all wait and see now for those two possibilities.

If you live in LA, I wouldn't really hope for November.. and even for December. Just stay at home and save a buck to get a nice cruise next year. I wouldnt also travel anywhere within the states.. You might end up in 14 day quarantine in some random place within your own country Just need to know before you go what is going on and it is mostly large cities with quarantine guidelines. Just spent a week in SD with no problems. A few restaurants still closed to indoor dining. No problems traveling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it's right or wrong, just saying Cozumel is definitely open for tourism again, only issue with that is if carnival goes the way of Costa, only way to get off the ship is on a boat excursion. NO fun side trips! 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think NOvember wil be long shot. the closer we get the more I think not, as crew must be hired, assembled, then flown in, ship set up, then stores arranged and purchased , then supplies(cleaning, covid tests etc). Long shot the longer they wait. personally i am anti mask as they are not work properly and provide little to no protection, and are actually unsafe. i honestly hope they cancel my Nvember 14 so i can destination to cancun instead!! sad to say as i LOVE cruising. Still have Bermuda 2021 set for October, maybe the stupidity will be done by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have a cruise scheduled from Charleston on the Sunshine leaving on November 9th. DH called and was told it was not showing availability because it was full due to sailing at half capacity.

stellarose Posted September 13, 2020 #64 Share Posted September 13, 2020 wonder how many ships will sail at limited capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruizinKittie40 Posted September 13, 2020 #65 Share Posted September 13, 2020 looks like if it's half capacity they would offer only the "good" rooms, huh? I was looking at the November cruises and literally the only thing I could book was a 2 person interior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stellarose Posted September 13, 2020 #66 Share Posted September 13, 2020 guessing half capacity is better than no cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise ships are so crowded Let's hope the limited capacity doesn't last long. We need the industry to remain profitable so it survives. Limited capacity won't cut their losses... it'll just make it so the loss doesn't hurt as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extra few dollars on a short night cruise may price people out in a vacation market that provides options for financing. If you don't mind paying more to sail on cruise lines with fewer passengers and fewer kids, check out Princess, Holland America and Celebrity. They don't stuff as many staterooms as possible onboard eliminating public areas and sail with better passenger:space ratios. As they aren't as family friendly, you'll find fewer kids and you'll have a better experience.

That's who I sail with and enjoy. Royal Caribbean will give you the best passenger:space ratios of any of the cruise lines. Especially on their bigger ships, they'll feel empty at times.
