It makes you wonder how desperate TUI are for revenue to even consider sailing while the COVID positive rates worldwide are escalating.🤷♂️ Geez... we are on board right now. Just to let you know, nobody twisted our arms to book the cruise 😉 BTW: we feel safer here than in any supermarket even in Germany. Protocols and hygiene guidelines are religiously followed on board. The "incident", blown out of proportions and reality by media (like The Guardian) turned out to be nothing but a false alarm. This was confirmed by Greek authorities this morning. Our cruise continues as planned... and we are enjoying every minute. Edited September 29, 2020 by Miaminice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll get the passengers' perspectives, rather than TUI's party line once they disembark. This is the passengers perspective... A thank you to the crew!
