But I guess they will be giving afew more to some other ships in the area. Is it just 10 days or do they still need a negative test result to finally get back to work again? That's a stretch to try and calculate crew infections. SMH 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightOne Posted January 10, 2022 #109 Share Posted January 10, 2022 3 hours ago, BND said: Personally I think using a couple of ships for quarantining crew is a brilliant idea. It allows them to move crew around as necessary and quarantine off away from ships with passengers. And, then exchange positive crew with those that have finished their quarantines. Anyone notice, there is zero talk of having to evacuate to a hospital anywhere? So do we know for sure that is what Symphony and Jewel are being used for? Pull from their healthy crews to replace the quarantined crew they send to those ships? If so, I wonder what how those ships go back into service in a few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or second thoughts maybe that would be neat. 🙂 I was referencing guests being evacuated by airlifted for Covid issues. 1 hour ago, TYinPalmSprings said: Thx. Godspeed to y'all Those guests aren’t helping the “cause”. 1 hour ago, RFerrington said: I think Adventure had a medical evac yesterday Hopefully the individual is doing well. We will never know the purpose to their evacuation. If given the chance I take the evacuation over disembarking in a bag, whatever the reason. 😮 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I am sure this is a day by day decision but that had some idea of what their future plans were when they elected to only pause those ships for a few weeks.

Picking up their key cards for their cabin desk set up. All filing along the pier in long lines with all their luggage. Symphony is on forward side very close, probably going to do a transfer as well since she was taken out of service. Oasis just beyond us on the port side, waiting to come in for perhaps her scheduled port day...or another transfer. This is Oasis scheduled day at Coco Cay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted January 10, 2022 #114 Share Posted January 10, 2022 We don’t find anything “weird“. We are in the middle of pandemic, crew are being moved from ship to ship, and the officers are doing what they need to do to keep things running as smoothly as possible. That could mean the cancellation of a show, and venue closing for a meal, detouring for a few hours to drop some crew off. Our detour will not affect our arrival in St Marteen. Anyone who cruise before knows that there can be “adjustments” any time during a cruise. We’ve all had ports to cancel, they show canceled etc. Extraordinary times require extraordinary adjustments. Prior to boarding, we were all made aware of protocol changes. Last cruise we didn’t make it to St Thomas. Same could happen this. Relax. m 11 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do recall deck 6 forward on Allure closed off back in October I remember something like that on the initial Oasis sail from Bayonne. Did not think much at that time as I figured that it was for social distancing . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess she's mainly out of service to allow her existing crew to spread out and take a break 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And apparently will still make St. Maarten (love that port).
