I'm not surprised for Florida, unfortunately. Headline in Washington Post was something like

          World watched in disbelief and disgust as Americans take to

           the road...

be safe 

Getting worse here but people refuse to mask up for the most part😟😟, we are having dinner on my son's front porch just the 4 of us.  I have not  been IN their house since February. They have a "bar", licensed as a store and rebuilt huge patio last spring with tables etc 6 feet apart. No inside socializing etc.  Sadly here I think it's going to take people knowing someone who has passed, been in ICU etc to make a dent in their stupidity

I am leaving for now because I am not sure if it's sarcastic......if it goes political seriously it will go, 

I will.leave for now. Please post only LINKS to your Carnival review, not the review itself. Also any novels re cruising by title. Lots of time to fill these days for many of you!  Thanks for your cooperation!

When is your cruise? My son lives there, not expecting cruise ships any time soon, even if a few ships sail in January. Maybe by next summer....

*********       I have carefully read this for past two days and while it is technically political I will leave for now. Most of the comments do not refer to specific political stances but rather how the government and CDC will be interacting in the future to hopefully start cruising up again. If however it descends into a political debate of personalities or COvid deaths and statistics I will I will intervene. Using the word  "senator" or simply using a senators name in context of a sentence discussing a bill or the order is ok if you aren't debating, denigrating etc... Thank you..what

Boring is right......I'm not going to weekend retreat with 20+ anti markers this Saturday or indoor 7- hour anti masker wedding and reception for 150+ next week...gatherings now moved back to 10 people 😆😆😆

Wow!! Colleges here not sure about except that many are having days off during spring semester to avoid spring break. I know some are closing from Thanksgiving to mid January. 

Yes our Governor survived....I think the only Democrat at state level to win unless the AG pulls it out. So there are closet "virus is real" believers😷here. Cases really rising again.

Be well.

Good information for folks traveling now but not cruise related.

Now back to on topic programming please

Here people give bogus contact info or hang up on the tracers. How crazy is thst??? 

At least my Steelers are still undefeated and NFL football is back😁😁

I love the candy chute!!!!

Getting slowly worse here. Governor has tried hard and fairly to keep us safe and will probably not get re-elected for it.  Big church had multi day rally with hundreds sick and 6 expired and local restaurant video of party was nuts. People here don't wear masks esp in smaller towns even though they know people sick with covid......smh

I understand your point about no politics, even though it is easy to go there which many people have done, including me. But I find it ironic that on a site dedicated to cruising,  we can’t talk about the ONE thing that is likely to determine if there is going to be a cruise industry in the future in the US. Unfortunately science is not going to determine if/when cruising resumes from US ports. 

I'm trying to give you guys some leeway here but I can close or mangle this thread with deletions if you prefer???...there are literally hundreds of sites and Facebook groups where you can discuss politics...this is not one of them. 

Again, your choice.....

******* This has gone way off but is still respectful so am leaving for now as the ONE thread on this meandering trail. Thank you in advance for keeping it a discussion, not an argument. One rule stays:  No politics!!!!!!!!!**********

Thank you for not making me regret doing this.😕

Leaving for now but if turns into a political, death stats.debate thread it will poof. We have so many that have turned....it's like leaves changing color....inevitable

Please keep on topic to Carnival cruises, otherwise I will put on Floataway

Thanks!

They want to be careful with the wedding. A wedding with like 62 people in a small town here ended up causing 177 cases and 8 deaths around the state. The county this was held in has only had 279 total cases and 6 deaths since the start of this.

I heard about this in Maine. Just a tragedy that didn't have to happen....

Back on topic please!!!! Re testing positive at  terminal for embarkation. Thank you!!

Article from Cruise Law is copywrited materia! Please feel free to repost with a link to the article  instead.

Back to “cruise booked for January,” November 2 Sunrise out of Miami cancelled, booked January 3 Horizon out of Miami, the anticipation begins again. 

Yes, this thread has gone off on a few tangents......on topic from here on, please!!!

I'm leaving this here since it pertains to a Carnival ship but you can also find information on this here:

Sorry to hear that. We were on the list too.last summer. People are so complacent here, gonna be interesting to see what happens. We do our girls art group on Zoom twice a month now....I would do in person with masks because these ladies are careful but Zoom works! Now my neighbor with the wedding for 200 inside for 8 hrs total and people coming from NY, Florida who are going to Mexico 2 weeks prior????? No way..they travel, eat out, no masks ever.....if they get through this wedding with no Covid or flu will be shocked!!

Since its all speculation I don't think poll will lead to any discussion that isn't already being discussed on a thread

what dose that mean

Once they decide on new boarding procedures due to Covid they will let you know. These will change from the prior method of boarding but no one knows how at this time.
