We both have conditions, me heart, him suppressed immune. So we're cancelling our April 15th HAL cruise & hoping American will extend its fly-by-March 31st to also let us cancel our flights... Since Allianz' (wonderful in the past) new policy denies reimbursement for pandemics, grrr, we're willing to eat the Marriott non-refundable hotel if we must.

From this morning:   

 

 

 

This is pretty intense. My parents were discussing their upcoming cruises with me this morning and whether they should go.

 

Read this and decided we should cancel since we're in our 70's and have diabetes and asthma.   Then I looked at HAL's prices on our same cruise for next year and they have doubled the price!  Has anyone else seen the same thing?

Viking has temporarily changed its cancellation policy.  As I understand it, they are allowing folks to cancel 24 hours ahead and receive a future cruise credit.

This to me is a very responsible thing to do, so that people don't feel obligated to board planes and appear for a cruise if they aren't feeling well to travel.  A healthier ship will result and there will be less spread of illness overall.

Except they've doubled the price of my cruise next year, so the future cruise credit is worthless.  What a rip off.

Just heard from a friend whose sister is currently on a cruise to Tahiti.  She spent to much time in the sun and when she went to board, they felt her head and said she had a fever and wouldn't let her board.  She got a cold bottle of water and held it to her face until it was cool and went back and they let her board.  This is crazy.

What shuttle service?

Just purchased an upgrade to Signature Suite.  Other than a larger, nicer cabin, are there any benefits to being in the suite?

When did they allow passengers to board the ship in Seattle departure?  My dh and I will also be on the July 28 sailing.

 

 

 

I was told by my TA that if I ordered a drink that was over $9 I would only pay the difference.  He has a lot of experience and I'm surprised to see that I would have to pay for the entire price of the drink.

Thanks!  Exactly what I wanted. 

I thought I recently saw the HAL drink menus posted on one of the threads, but can't find it now.  Can anyone help me out?

Great!  Thanks for the reply.

On the Holland America Alsaka cruises, when can you start using the drinks package?  I've been on Carnival where you couldn't use it until the 2nd day of the cruise.
