Navigator Itinerary Changes for November 10 Sailing

It is amazing that the President of the Company does not know what day Navigator sailed on. 🙃

Correct. You wonder what else she doesn’t know. So far not impressed.

I got the email too...total tone deafness by Regent. To offer a 25% FCC at this point is an insult, especially when they "force" you to choose between your very significant cruise fare or the potential of being put in harm's way. With a dearth of ports on the itinerary its a pretty expensive way to watch water pass by....They should have canceled the cruise at the outset and offered full refunds or 100% FCC...full stop. There must be a lot of unhappy people associated with this cruise. By the way did you get to Gythion? Thanks for the update!

She didn't write the letter and probably signed it without reading it.

Today’s (Monday) port is Mykonos, a very picturesque Greek island. 
But for this particular cruise, it is, once again, not to be. Thunderstorms predicted all day with high winds. The tenders drivers union refuses to work, so we will be skipping another port. 
This reduces our scheduled ports to 8 in 21 nights. 
The good news fo us is that the ship is not sinking. 😕

Re missing Mykonos.  Unfortunately this cruise is way too late in the season to have good weather for cruising.  We learnt this the hard way when our large ferry to Crete didn't leave the Piraeus wharf for 24 hours due to the bad weather.  There was a near riot when they wouldn't let us off the ship.  When we finally got to Crete NOTHING was open. But that was another story!!

Something I never did or would ever do during my career.

Yes we did…pretty day, not much to see or do, but getting off the ship is a win! 🙂
