I hope you are having an amazing cruise so far! So nobody seems to want to say how many are expected on 21st sailing, best answer I could get so far is from crown and anchor desk, she said right now it’s looking like about 50% capacity but that doesn’t show the cancellations until boarding day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxStacey Posted January 19, 2022 #30 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Thank you! That sounds a little high but most people are probably getting their covid tests today so there could be some cancellations. I just took mine this morning and I am NEGATIVE! DH will test shortly so fingers crossed! I'll be glad when I can breathe a sign of relief. That won't be until Im on the ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karena1 Posted January 19, 2022 #32 Share Posted January 19, 2022 On 1/8/2022 at 4:59 PM, sabrefan15 said: I have B2B scheduled on FOS out of Miami, Jan. 17th and 21st and seems like this is one of just a few ships out of Miami that hasn't cancelled. Before making my decision to go or not was wondering what capacity looks like and if anyone has heard of positivity rates or any other info. We just got off 1/10 and going again 2/4/22. Capacity was about 1/2 I think (we will be thrilled when we are back to full capacity). We heard of zero positive rates on our cruise, everything was super great. Staff is amazing. Food was very good. We had a blast. Ice show is awesome, probably in our top 5 of the Royal Ice shows on their ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising these days is not for the faint of heart! DH tested negative so we should be good to go! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thjeepster Posted January 20, 2022 #35 Share Posted January 20, 2022 1 more day!!! We’ll be driving over to Miami in 24 hours from now!!!! Excited to get to the ship! hoping the capacity is lower than 50%. It was 35% on Odyssey 3 months ago and it was so amazing and we always felt safe and distanced.

Mwins78 Posted January 20, 2022 #36 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Hi sailing on the FOS on Feb 25-28. I know that"ssa while from now but I'm interested as to how the weather has been. We where on Navigator of the Sea right before covid really hit the U.S. end of Feb. 2019 had two rain out days of a three day cruise. So I am hoping we get good weather! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just told by guest services that they are expecting 2339 passengers for tomorrows cruise. She said it will probably be closer to 2000 after everyone tests.
