Otherwise there’s no reason to post on this boards.

Daniel A Posted April 1, 2021 #53 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I have a final payment coming due at the end of this month for a July cruise out of New York. If O was going to cancel it, when do you think they would do it? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nautica (4 from Europe), Insignia (6 from NY), and Regatta (4 from Seattle) cruises were showing wait lists in every category on every cruise, Sirena (5 from Europe) had everything WL except for one category on one cruise. Riviera's 2 cruises, both Europe, had a good number of categories available. Marina's 3 cruises all had availability (Europe). So whether the computer programmers are still working through all the cruises, or something else is happening, who knows? I just used this secret decoder ring to check my Riviera cruise departing Athens (Greece, Israel, Cyprus, Turkey) on 18 July, and it still shows many available categories -- so far.

thepla Posted April 1, 2021 #59 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I decided to switch now for same July 2022, rates in lower cabins seem same, Balcony higher, but I wanted to be early to swich. I did do Inside and will monitor for sales. It said only 2 cabins, now one. I wanted to also switch because if refund I'd lose $240 Amex offers charges my account. Miles for awards were refundable as was hotel. As we all know my current Balcony cabin still says waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful! When it relates to matters regarding sailing, you have to use the secret decoder ring found in the Cap'n Crunch box. The ring in the Frosted Flakes box is not as accurate for that purpose. The Frosted Flakes ring is excellent for use in matters pertaining to S E Asia... 🐯 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PaulMCO Posted April 5, 2021 #65 Share Posted April 5, 2021 The Ouija board started moving by itself today and said an announcement is imminent... Actually NCL pulled the cruises for July and August on their site, so something should be announced soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plans are paper and with some tests of the paper no certainty that will prove to a government bureaucrat that it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think the chances are that Norwegian has submitted this fully vaccinated plan to the CDC anticipating it being rejected by the CDC thus giving Norwegian and the cruise industry grounds for filing a lawsuit? Either way, I'm glad to see at least one operator seems to be taking the bull by the horns. Thanks again for posting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, despite the fact we are booked on Insignia 9 July NYC to Bermuda. At least Oceania announce cancellations before final payment, with the change to 60 days out!

FDR said in his letter that July cruises would only have 60% capacity. Even if CDC permits this (which I don't believe they will), how will they decide what 40% get bumped? Will they go after the unvaccinated people first? Hmmm. . . Edited April 5, 2021 by Daniel A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
