Passenger not travelling

[Twinbooty]

Another question that i hope people can help with.  We are a group of 6 with 3 separate bookings.  1 of the party doesnt want to take the risk of travelling as they have symptoms.  They are the Main traveller in that cabin with the booking in their name. 

 

Can his wife travel on her own and be able to check in as a single guest in their cabin without the other person being there.  

 

And if the answer is yes, does it matter that the payment card is in his name for the room, though her name is authorised against the card as well.  They are happy for her to travel with the other 4.

They can update the reservation on line.  The person with “symptoms” are you referring to Covid?  Assuming yes and the two live together then he/she is a close contact.  Why would they take that risk?

Did the person in question not get tested or are they just assuming it's what they have?

The person needs to be careful how they answer questions. I.e., don’t say “my husband, who I live with, has COVID and could not come”. Reference bullet #2 below. And if the husband is really COVID positive, they can not cruise. 
 

 

What is the criteria for denying guests boarding?

 

We continue to work with authorities to update the criteria below. Please keep in mind that these can change at any time.

To protect the health of our guests on board, we will be denying boarding to anyone who 

• Any guest with a temperature detected at or above 100.4F / 38C. 
• All persons who, within 30 days prior to embarkation, have had contact with, or helped care for, anyone suspected or diagnosed as having COVID-19, or who are currently subject to health monitoring for possible exposure to COVID-19
• All persons who have reported on the Pre-Embarkation Public Health Questionnaire or who appear symptomatic, are feeling unwell, are exhibiting flu-like symptoms or exhibit difficulty breathing.

Guests who are denied boarding will be issued a refund for monies paid for their cruise- only expenditures in the form of a 100% future cruise credit.

Thanks all, they are in separate hotel rooms plus she has already had covid but i can see it may be an issue anyway.  

Those denied boarding points above are in complete contradiction to other advice on people with contact.  According to NCL, if you have contact but still test negative at pier then you cant refuse to board and get a refund.

So you're recommending that people lie or misrepresent their situation? My goodness.

Wait a minute.  You have two separate threads.  In this one one of the people in your party has COVID and their spouse still wants to board the ship.

 

In the other thread YOU are experiencing COVID symptoms but still want to get onboard.
 

I don’t understand.

Absolutely not. I said that if the “friend’s” husband has COVID, the wife can not cruise. 
 

The first sentence was to “stick to the facts”. The “friend’s” husband is sick and decided not to cruise. The “friend’s” husband has tested negative for COVID. Period. Stay away from random conjecture that the husband has COVID-like symptoms, etc. If asked, state the symptoms, not an uneducated / unqualified guess “they are like COVID” based on something you read on the Internet. State the facts, leave the interpretation to the medical team.

Read post #4 again.  If your going to quote yourself in a response at least quote yourself correctly.
