Oldsweets Posted June 1, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 1, 2021 We checked our Carnival Page with our 4 July Booking and see 2 new icons listed which could be very good news for sailing. The first is a icon that says Complete Health Assessment Not a available until 27 Jun while the second icon is Check in which now says not available until 4 Jun These changes bode well for actually sailing on 4 July. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNcruising02 Posted June 1, 2021 #2 Share Posted June 1, 2021 It looks like you will be able to check in soon! Good luck! Let us know how it goes and if you are assigned an appointment time or can choose one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our August B2B out of New Orleans has the same info. But I’m still cautious in thinking we will sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a good chance. New Orleans has been reopening.

As it appears you will be the first to go through the check in & Health Assessment, you are on point. Please let us know how it goes & how detailed(without getting into personal specifics, of course) the health questionnaire is. We are concerned if a covid test is mandatory, I believe that will cause use to have to jump through hoops, which may be problematic. Thanks in advance!

Looks like your on for your sailing. Please like the others ask can you update us as to the Health questions and how were you assigned a boarding time or did you choose? Also interested if your a platinum or diamond VFIP did you have priority on your boarding pass or luggage tags? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But....but....but...As quickly as things are changing....IE: rules, mandates, recommendations, advisories, regulations...which seems to be changing multiple times per day, that I'd just throw that out....just in case it changes in the next 3 days. We are all highly interested what we all may expect in the first sailings in well over a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all highly interested what we all may expect in the first sailings in well over a year. online check in is available 1 month prior to sailing. The health assessment is just days before, 7 days i think. Yes the questions could very well change 3 almost 4 weeks from now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Shoes2Go Posted June 2, 2021 #10 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Looks like our online check in will be available, after midnight, tonight. No sign of any Priority on our documents. We are Diamonds; that does show with our VIFP numbers, on the documents. Still doesn’t mean the cruise will sail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol doesn’t matter what depumpernickel thinks/says. Cruise lines are gonna do what’s in their best interests to start and worry about the state of Florida when it has time to do so. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SRQbeachgirl Posted June 2, 2021 #15 Share Posted June 2, 2021 It appears the parties are in serious negotiations to try and settle. Which makes me wonder...if Florida does not have standing to sue the CDC (as some have claimed), then why would the Judge send them to mediation (rather than just throwing the case out), and why would the parties be working so hard to negotiate? "Settlement discussions went for at least 11 hours on Thursday, before the Memorial Day weekend. And the discussions were scheduled to continue Tuesday, according to court documents." https://www.floridaphoenix.com/2021/06/01/gov-ron-desantis-heated-battle-over-cruise-line-industry-lawyers-working-to-settle/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviela Posted June 2, 2021 #17 Share Posted June 2, 2021 My cruise in October has moved check in to 15 days before, and health questions to ten days before sailing. The print documents button is missing, so I can't see all onboard credit. Systems problem perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbitrators comes to a binding decision. (It can be appealed, but courts do not like to overturn arbitration decisions as the reason for arbitration it to not tie up the courts.) Mediators attempt to get the parties involved to agree to an outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are platinum so I think they might assign early times to the P & Ds. Then have a slight delay to get all on board then board everyone else. Also I think there will be no early boarding, you arrive at your assigned time, no earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to be the strange thing - paying attention to the "assigned" times. Which I think most people ignored in the past. I sure hope it's going to be (some measurable reduction) in ship capacity/occupancy - otherwise embarkation will be a multi-hour cluster!
