RFerrington Posted June 7, 2021 #6 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Congratulations, Chris. We are being moved from Indy to OY (7-17 and 7-25) but since they haven't moved us officially yet, I am not certain of our new sail dates. Looking forward to sailing again. So happy to see you back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He better get moving then to make your July 3rd sailing, doesn't he have to first quarantine, then get his 1 shot and then wait another 14 days before he can board the ship, plus he has to do his new training somewhere? Can't see him making your sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is the hope of all the crew members, to get vaccinated in their home country but most have not been very sucessful in that attempt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FionaMG Posted June 7, 2021 #14 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I don't know how old Chris is but the UK is opening up vaccination to 25-30-year-olds from tomorrow. 30 and up are already having theirs done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see him making your sailing. No need to quarantine prior to getting his vaccination. No need to quarantine for 14 days before joining the ship, can quarantine on board. And many of the crew trainings are done online via video followed by quiz while they quarantine. Flying out to FL today, J&J vaccine tomorrow, join the ship by this weekend, 14 days in his cabin after joining, during which he gets most of his training done. Still leaves at least a full week prior to passengers coming on board to finish up the hands on training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before all that, test cruise and then the wait from the CDC to give them approval to sail, so July 3rd sailing still may not go as scheduled.

No, the test cruise & getting CDC approval can happen concurrently with all that. And those issues have absolutely nothing to do with this thread and what's being discussed, Chris joining the Odyssey and whether he'd be working and people could meet him if they are on the July 3rd sailing.
