We sail in two weeks on our 1st cruise since Jan. 2020. (I think we canceled/postponed three booked cruises since then.) We are vaxxed and double-boosted. We both contracted Covid one month ago after returning from a multi-city road trip vacation. Fortunately, mild symptoms. Once cruising resumed after the shutdown, we agreed we wouldn't cruise again until masking changed from mandatory to optional. And now, pre-testing requirement has been dropped too. We are excited to be cruising again, and confident that recovering from Covid a month ago gives us some additional immunity -- at least for a few months (?). It also means we won't get the new variant-specific booster until Nov/Dec. I basically agree with the poster who said he and his family weren't going to let the possibility of contracting Covid "ruin our lives" but I fully understand that each person's (family's) situation is unique and that they will need to make their own risk vs. reward decisions.

Great review. Much thanks. We sail on Sept. 18. Certainly hope you're correct about fewer school-age kids . . . and also no hurricanes, please! 😂

Haha! 186,000 miles/second! Way out in outer space! Thanks for a good laugh to start my day 😂

Why do you say ‘stabbed’ and not (e.g.) ‘poked’? Are you being facetious or implying that you very reluctantly got vaccinated — and NO BOOSTERS?
