GlobalMethod Posted December 14, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) We just got back from an Azamara back-to-back on the Quest, doing a transatlantic to Miami from Lisbon and then onward from Miami for a 'Caribbean Breeze'. Happy to report that food, service, crew and all aspects of the cruise exceeded expectations. We were so pleased we started planning another such outing tonight! Happy Travels to All!

Hawkeye55 Posted December 15, 2021 #3 Share Posted December 15, 2021 We are trying the Quest on the Jan. 7, 2022 sailing around the Caribbean, with what seems like very few passengers. I hope that's not a sign of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you had such a good time. Reflects our experience earlier in the Autumn- definitely a notch up. We booked something we had not initially planned to when we got home - it’s catching 😂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that worries me a little, given the COVID case they have already had. Any more news about that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any more news about that? Just off the quest today. Sadly. The cruise was …Amazing. They made it so special even with some changes made and the masks and all that. Yes- one case caught on day 4 during full ship testing. She was isolated as was her one close contact (Determined by the cameras all over), her husband. Separately. She was asymptomatic. He tested negative each day until he didn’t- on day 9. Also asymptomatic. Then they were isolated together. They were to stay on for the next two cruises but were leaving today to isolate ashore and then Azamara will get them home. The captain kept Everyone informed and was in regular contact with the couple. There are a few cabins on deck 4 that Have separate air filtration and glass doors that block the hallway on either side. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaBag Posted December 23, 2021 #10 Share Posted December 23, 2021 That is my worst nightmare too. I didn't know they tested throughout the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tested in the terminal prior to embarkation, on day 4 and those flying internationally on the last two sea days. We didn't need to be tested prior to arriving at the terminal.

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted December 24, 2021 #12 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Part of my feeling of security in cruising is frequent testing. Yes it would be bad for me if I or DW tested positive onboard. But in the larger sense it is best for everybody to spot Covid cases as early as possible, to prevent further spread. I am willing to do my part in keeping everyone safe [as I already have with the booster shot and appointments for pre-cruise testing]. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before Barbados so we could roam freely thanks to their country. B2B were tested also. Plus flying home. No,I do not want to,go into lockdown in a tiny cabin but yes want ship safe. oh heard at dinner someone was positive at terminal today. One needs to test before flying or at hotel.
