Original email says we will be notified by email within 30 days, if it follows what we received after having a fully paid cruise cancelled early in the pandemic we should get FCC numbers to quote when booking. Of course if you booked through a travel agent it might go to them. I’m still wondering about the definition of year, is it book within a year or will it be take a cruise within a year. Also there’s no mention of the FCC offered when Venice was changed to Ravenna.

I know there was the intention to do one as they did with Pursuit, will be interesting to see if they actually did.

Probably worse from our experience, during Onwards maiden we were told the hull had to be opened to replace the ships laundry as it was beyond repair, I know the entire fresh water system was replaced before passenger side refurbishment started. Plenty has been spent to get the unseen bits up to standard and I’m sure there’s going to be a lot more done over the next few months.

Plenty of Perrier Jouet available on the maiden 🥂

We printed the PDF version from the NHS app it was much easier at check in to have a paper version.

I think one important factor keeps being overlooked, the Atlas bar is only open from 5pm so during the daytime the room is open and available to those who want a quiet place to read or contemplate. Accepted that the library is in the Living Room but it’s not as though there’s a huge distance between the two rooms. Evening use of the Drawing room was very limited and it was often closed for private events which can easily be relocated to other areas of the ship.
