adgtravel Posted September 27, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Has anyone been on Sky Princess lately and noticed which deck is used for Covid Quarantine? We were on Royal in June and deck 9 (Dolphin) was blocked off for Covid cases. We have an aft corner suite booked on deck 9 in a few months, and am concerned we will be moved to a different location! Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara4166 Posted September 27, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I assumed they did not block the suites since they are so expensive. We are in an aft corner on dolphin in 2 months so hopefully it is not a problem. Do they normally block the entire deck or just 1 side. We thought we may need to walk down the other side of the ship and cross over to our suite at the back of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any info! We were in D710 in late August. The quarantine started after D702 , going forward on the port side. Starboard side was open. Therefore, the suites at the back appeared to be unaffected, for our sailing anyway! Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were recently on the Enchanted Princess. Quarantine was the same - mid to front, port side on Dolphin deck. Both sides were open at the aft elevators.We were in the aft corner suite and had no access issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memoak Posted September 27, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 27, 2022 On the Royal it seemed like the entire port side on Dolphin was for covid isolation. We were moved from a mail aft suite on Marina deck to an identical suite on Dolphin when we were infected. We are booked in a Vista suite aft Dolphin on the Ruby in November. We have not heard of any change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapals2 Posted September 27, 2022 #7 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Are they still using isolation cabins? I thought I have read they are quarantining passengers in their own cabins and delivering room service. Friends on the current sailing had a surprise test before boarding cost of $10 per person and masks to be worn for the next 6 days transatlantic. Not sure how many cases this picked up before boarding. My guess is they were afraid of a severe outbreak and numbers too high to dock on arrival in Newfoundland.

A number of people have reported here on CC that they, or people they knew, were in fact being allowed to quarantine in their cabins. If I had to guess, I'd imagine that those balcony cabins on Dolphin deck (as we saw on the Enchanted last week) would probably be used to quarantine pax from inside cabins, and also quite probably crew members. With the tight quarters the crew must endure, quarantining them in the lower decks could be problematic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emairs Posted September 27, 2022 #9 Share Posted September 27, 2022 We got Covid three days before the end of our TA on Enchanted Princess recently. We were allowed to quarantine in our aft corner suite on Dolphin deck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
