Loreni Posted March 28, 2021 #1 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I understand that cruising may never return to normal, but assuming it does, where would you go first: 1) return to your favorite cruise itinerary, or 2) go to on a bucket list cruise to new places? I always knew that we had a finite window of opportunity to cruise because health and life are finite. But now I realize that a pandemic can also close the window of opportunity and another pandemic is always possible. What if the next window is very short. Is is better to do what you know you will enjoy or explore a new place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skynight Posted March 28, 2021 #5 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Basically for us it is more about being on board than ports of call. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susancruzs Posted March 28, 2021 #6 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I'm booked on a Med cruise + TA for Nov. 2021. Trying to remain hopeful, it will sail. Transatlantic are my absolute favorite cruise, a few ports and all those sea days. 2022 is Cali Coastal (2), Baltic + TA, then NZ + transpacific. It's about ports of call for me, 2 weeks minimum. Seven day cruises have never been a favorite, nor the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeep Posted March 28, 2021 #7 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) when cruising returns in 2021 🥃 we will continue with our little 'long weekend' cruises out of PE in 2022 - we would consider a 10 day Southern Caribbean, but currently have a 7 day Eastern booked we wouldn't 'too much mind' limited restrictions on the boat and ports for the long weekend and 7 day - but would much prefer very few restrictions if we go to the time and expense of anything over 7 days that involves a plane trip 🛸 2023 - Alaska cruise tour 8 & 7 land first 2024 - might be time to fly 'across the pond' and do the British Isles if our health is still good as we've heard that itinerary is port intensive with a lot of walking everything has been pushed back at least a year, maybe 2 ... except our aging ... getting old(er) sucks Edited March 28, 2021 by voljeep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgratru Posted March 28, 2021 #8 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Anywhere on a cruise is fine for me....cannot currently fly out of my city to anywhere and very tight restrictions when we return if we even go to the next province! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showingdiva Posted March 28, 2021 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2021 100m along the harbour of my home port in Scotland to work on board and shore side with the cruise ships, welcoming passengers and helping them make the most of their day here. Missing it more than I can explain. And if allowed a second, re-united with Queen Mary 2 as a passenger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pris993 Posted March 28, 2021 #13 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Mexico, Hawaii, Caribbean in that order. Mexico 1/22; Hawaii 12/22, Caribbean 2023. I exhausted my bucket list years ago. At this point, I am simply happy to cruise out of San Francisco round trip as much as possible. I have enough air miles to fly round trip to Florida in first class, so eventually will go to the Caribbean, have not been there in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasperdo Posted March 28, 2021 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Probably the Mexican Riviera out of LA. We haven't seen our relatives in Southern California in quite awhile now. So this would combine visiting with them and going on a warm destination cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treasure Hunter Posted March 28, 2021 #21 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I would hope Princess brings back the 28 day Hawaii/Tahiti from LA. We have been to Hawaii on the Emerald and Tahiti on the Ocean but would love to go back to both on the same cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky TGO Posted March 28, 2021 #23 Share Posted March 28, 2021 For me it would be any Princess ship for 20 days in the Caribbean during the month of February. ‘I love watching the Super Bowl on the ship.

cnd crsr Posted March 28, 2021 #25 Share Posted March 28, 2021 We have reserved the Med, followed by a TA and a 10 day Caribbean for this fall -- hopefully all will be a go! If not and we have to wait until 2022, will book the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
