tallnthensome Posted August 4, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I always buy spa passes on all the cruises I go on with my DW. I have spa passes for my wife and I for the Panroama in a few weeks. We are fully vaxxed of course but a small part of me has me double thinking being close to people in the whirlpool, steam room, etc. We do enjoy it but wonder if that is really not a great idea right now ......or ..... just go and enjoy as all guests will be vaccinated.

snowballs mom Posted August 4, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We are looking forward to it. I am more concerned about the ports than the ship, but I am not letting that stop me. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyteacher41877 Posted August 4, 2021 #3 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I was having this same debate with myself. We are on the Horizon 8/21. I think Im going to stay away from them and enjoy the outside as much as I can unless there is a massive drop in the numbers before then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am more concerned about the ports than the ship, but I am not letting that stop me. I'm thinking like you. Water, hot water doesnt bother me on the ship. The ports with unvaccinated workers are of more concern. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ninjacat123 Posted August 4, 2021 #5 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I bought the spa pass for me and DH and I'm looking forward to it! I think I'll be able to keep enough distance, but like you said, we are vaccinated and no 12 and unders will be in there. I'm thinking we will be fine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheSailsFL Posted August 4, 2021 #6 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Yea no thank you. I’ll pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonsterling Posted August 4, 2021 #7 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I've never done the Thermal Suite before but bought a pass this time for my cruise in 2 1/2 weeks. I'm not going to be any closer to someone in there then anyplace else in my life. There's people all around me all the time. At least on the ship the adults will all be vaccinated. I can't say that about anywhere else. So, no, no concerns. I'm looking forward to trying the pool out and the mosaic loungers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
touloo Posted August 4, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We are in a spa suite in less than two weeks and have some concerns. We will try to go during less crowded times and keep our distance from others. The steam rooms where the air is heavy and doesn’t circulate as much are my main concern. I feel less concerned in the other areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricane0226 Posted August 4, 2021 #9 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We have a spa suite for this Saturday, I will probably use the spa and pool, hot water should hopefully take care of the Covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseracer Posted August 4, 2021 #10 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Imagine all those little covids swimming around in the whirlpools like mini-tadpoles, multiplying exponentially in the heat and floating around like swarms of locusts in the steam... A black-light would reveal your worst nightmare... Nah - I'm just messing with you. 😁 I'd enjoy without worry... 😉 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted August 4, 2021 #11 Share Posted August 4, 2021 COVID has never been traced to water in pools or spas. That's why you can swim in public pools throughout the country. Plus how many times have you been in or thinking about going into a spa and see people sneezing and coughing while lounging in the water. Yuck factor might turn you away. Might not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keywest1 Posted August 4, 2021 #12 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We always get a Spa pass for DH and DD, but we've decided not to spend the money this time. More worried about restrictions on the # of guests in spa at same time becoming a thing in the near future, thus limiting the times they could go. We've never been on the Panorama anyhow, so plenty to do without the passes. Me--I'd rather go on the ropes course without a tether than go to the spa 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherCraig Posted August 4, 2021 #13 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Yes. Of course. I have zero reason not to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BoozinCroozin Posted August 4, 2021 #14 Share Posted August 4, 2021 For me, the answer is yes. We have it booked and this is before I got more concerned with unvaxxed being on the ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ninjacat123 Posted August 5, 2021 #17 Share Posted August 5, 2021 NOW.....considering the new protocol wearing masks inside the ship, does this mean we have to wear masks inside the tile chair area, spa pool, etc? TIA! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPTexas Posted August 7, 2021 #21 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Looking forward to relaxing on the tile chaise loungers. Had the T-spa package last time and will enjoy again this time (with or without a mask). Looking forward to cruising again! Soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't enjoy a spa experience with a mask on so I'll have to cancel if this is the case. I'm hoping it's maskless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? Don't want to scare you off, but I will never use the Thasso pool again. Ended up with a staff infection three days into my last cruise. Had to buy antibiotics in Mexico. Thankfully they worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesatgsu Posted August 10, 2021 #24 Share Posted August 10, 2021 On NCL, they skipped every other seat in their thermal suite, despite them being about 4 feet apart. Mostly was ok, but a few times we went and there was nothing available in the unisex section, but the locker room stuff was always pretty empty (Sauna/Shower/Plunge/Hot Tub/Steam). I bought my passes for Mardi Gras yesterday (they have way more seats than NCL). I'm not concerned because if it is too crowded, we'll just come back later.
