Fall passenger cruises the earliest possible, IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodtime Cruizin Posted March 18, 2021 Author #6 Share Posted March 18, 2021 1 minute ago, Milwaukee Eight said: more final payments Cruiselines can only receive payments when their passengers send them. My point is, the power of the purse is still with us as the consumer. Personally, I don't think we'll be cruising until late fall or early winter at the earliest. Maybe not even then. While tempted to book Allure for early next year.... I'll wait to see how our July 2022 shakes out first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted March 18, 2021 #7 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Some Port Canaveral official was just on the news and says cruising "could" begin in July or August but definitely by October. Thought that was pretty funny and non definitive 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, August maybe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t remember the numbers, but it was something like 10 x the amount of people needed had applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
