swdke Posted August 6, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Booked a cruise in November 2021. I realized when I paid my deposit that the cruise could end up being canceled. And, I see that some 2021 cruises have been canceled. Sailing on the Jewel of the Seas which is currently sailing in Greece. At what point would you feel confident that the Jewel will actually sail out of Miami in November? Just curious. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxHadleyxx Posted August 6, 2021 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I'm with biker...I'm not believing any if mine will sail until I'm actually on board. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cancelled our January Radiance cruise and we're happy. Now we can get back that non-refundable deposit.

Rare FionaMG Posted August 6, 2021 #5 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I agree with Biker too. We just lost a port from our upcoming cruise so I will not believe it is actually happening till it leaves the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthebeach2 Posted August 6, 2021 #6 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Unfortunately I won’t be comfortable until I step onboard. I don’t even plan to pack until a couple of days prior. This will eventually stop, so it will be in our “remember when…” list 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapleleafforever Posted August 6, 2021 #7 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I believe there will be cruising but the protocols will become more strict and prohibitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampurp85 Posted August 6, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I would say if you can check-in and then after a negative covid test being shown at the pier. IMHO any ships that were not part of the initial restart, were not going to sail. As far as port changes, that is to be expected and just because that happens doesn't mean ships won't sail. I have also known that protocols and restrictions would be here and here for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its already masks and testing for everyone. It will pass. This isnt forever 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted August 6, 2021 #15 Share Posted August 6, 2021 The cruises will sail. Cruise lines can't afford for them not to sail. Question is what kind of on board experience will you have as protocols get more strict 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking forward to the cruise and considering to add a booking for a December Galveston cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baowen Posted August 6, 2021 #22 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I'm sailing next Friday on the Ovation and I am still not 100% sure that it will happen. No particular reason but I've learned in this pandemic to never take anything for granted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
