Hello Thinking of taking a Viking Danube cruise in October. What is the weather like there then? Thanks

I can’t get it to stop asking for Covid test results when they are no longer required so can go no further. We are also flying home from Quebec and tried to add that but the airline list is short and no Air Canada on it. I have deleted and added the app a couple of times now and no difference and written to customer service 12 hours ago and no answer. Guess we’ll be in the long line at the terminal……..

If it’s not 1 thing it’s another. Now I can’t complete my Verifly for our cruise to canada because it wants a Covid test result uploaded………….

I registered for OnPoint last week. The charge went through but no calendar came up to schedule. I called, tried to chat, emailed multiple times. No response. I’ve filed a dispute with my bank because the charge went through. I read where some people had an appointment but no one showed up. Someone else said “it’s the fastest negative result you’ll ever get.” Ready in 5 minutes. Hope you have better luck than I did

Agree. And if a port is not safe I doubt they would be inviting ships to dock or the government would even let them if the situation is bad just for some tourist dollars. I have been looking forward to visiting this area for a long time and this cruise came along at the right time. It’s not unusual for someone to wonder about changes to the itinerary.

Just put your mind at ease, we had a cruise ship today!!! See you on the 6th!! Erin Tourism Prince Edward Island 1-800-463-4PEI www.tourismpei.com tourismpei@gov.pe.ca This is what she wrote to me so I don’t know what the story is. I do like a sure thing and like you would prefer to go somewhere where things are all functioning. We shall see and looking forward to your next post. I see dress is smart casual whole trip so just put away the dressier outfit and my husband’s blazer (maybe the Spanx stay home too!😁)

Heard from PEI tourism person I have chatted with in past week and she said they had their 1st cruise ship yesterday.

At this point would be happy with port substitutions like zaandam has and go to Saguenay or Baie Corneau. 2 sea days on a 6 day trip are too much-3 if PEI is not able to open up. Keep us posted🤞🤞🤞🤞

Sounds similar itinerary to ours. Please continue to post how things are going for her. Hope they improve as week goes on

Thanks for the info. Yes PEI and Sydney are 2 on our schedule and sounds as if it will be some time before they are up and running. Thought Halifax might open sooner as it is an important port for leisure, shipping and military but would be happy to go to other ports if available. Just don’t want a “cruise to nowhere.”

Thank you. 🤞🤞🤞🤞

I would like to know also. Cruising on another line. Due to see Halifax, PEI-major damage, Sydney. Think Quebec City OK but you have to be able to get there……

We are due to leave Sunday for a 6 day cruise to the recently hurricane damaged Canadian Atlantic. After seeing the news, I assume that at least 2 of our scheduled ports definitely are closed which would then leave only 2 others (think Halifax could possibly open within a week but may not allow ships). We have insurance so that doesn’t matter but were looking forward to vacation. For those of you who have had their cruise affected by weather events, what happens now?

Yes OnPoint. Like you say I’m sure it will be a challenge to get my money back but I will give it a try. There is definitely something wrong with OP-probably overwhelmed with requests and don’t have staff to handle it. Went to the CVS site and easily scheduled tests for end of next week.

I just spent the last hour on hold with this company-opens at 8. I tried the various selections and finally discovered that the only one that takes a message is the group selection (more money and people gets some attention I guess) so I left them a message with my pertinent information and asked them to cancel my account and I will test at CVS.
