My wife and I are from Singapore and have fallen in love with cruising since our first cruise with Rcl back in 2017. Lately, we have been making do with watching YouTube videos on cruise ships and destinations.
Late last year, we were lucky enough to sail on one of Rcl’s ocean getaways from Singapore and booked a trip to the Med scheduled for Sept 2022 (we also booked a trip for December 2021 with Voyager sailing in south-east Asia but that’s another story).
We have been following the news lately and noticed a rise in racial negativity in Europe and the US. As Asians and of Chinese ethnicity, we have concerns on travel to these destinations in the near future, and if we should rebook our Med cruise to an asian destination. Hence, like to check with follow cruisers if our concerns are misplaced and if there are other things we should look out for.

Should we continue with our Med sailing plans?
