Perhaps the CDC will update guidance soon for reporting “breakthroughs,” as we don’t have the full picture of vaccinated asymptomatic positives vs. the severe illness that are currently only counted as breakthroughs.
Here are where I'm gathering my statistics.

I don’t see any answers to my specific questions on that NCL page. I’m not going to call because the call center people won’t know either. I did read somewhere they have deals with each island for quarantine hotels.
I also found this article, not a super reliable news source but troubling nonetheless https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9859611/amp/Man-tells-family-break-Greece-holiday-hell-forced-quarantine.html
I personally know multiple fully vaccinated people who tested positive recently, so I don’t think the .112% chance is accurate for delta variant
WOW. That article sounds horrible. Again at this point my nerves have been calmed based on the statistics. I would agree it's probably a good idea to call NCL and find out their procedures if you are still concerned. The closest I could find on the FAQs was testing positive while onboard, before boarding sounds like they will refund your cruise but no info on flights. If you are taking their airline credit it's started your vacation with them then maybe the FAQ answer: "Guests who test positive for COVID-19 during their cruise and are required to quarantine will receive a pro-rated cash refund or a pro-rated Future Cruise Credit. If a guest followed all of the cruise line’s health and safety protocols, the cruise line will coordinate and cover the cost of necessary onboard COVID-19 related medical treatment, required land-based quarantine and travel arrangements to get the guest safely back to their home."

I've been pondering this as well as we sail Jade Sept 12th and I'm interested in the same info. However with my recent look into the actual percentages it makes me feel much better that it is highly improbable.
Based on the average across all states reporting their breakthrough infections in full vaccinated people, you have a 0.112% chance of testing positive for COVID-19 if fully vaccinated. Based on the Jade's 2400 person capacity thats 2-3 people if sailing at full capacity.

Hey all! My husband and I will be sailing through Panama on the Nov 8th sailing of the Joy. We don't often get to the Friends of Dorthy events but would love to connect. Let us know if you will be there!

Hey all just touching base as we are getting closer to sailing and I haven't seen a Roll Call formed yet. We head out of Port Canaveral for an EPIC Thanksgiving Cruise. The main roll call is pretty active but with this being one of the largest ships on the sea and a holiday sailing I figure there has to be a bit of family traveling. Say hello!
We are 2 guys from SWFL traveling with a group of about 50 friends and family. After our first Thanksgiving cruise it is becoming one of our regularly planned vacations. Our first time on the EPIC but old pros at NCL so it will be interesting to see how they do mega ships.
Cheers

We (33 & 45) will be heading West from Vancouver to Clarkston the first week of October. I'll be honest the age gap is one of the things that concerns us. This will be our first river cruise, something my partner (the history buff) has always wanted to do, we ended up compromising on the American Empress so I could get my wine fix of the Pacific NW.

It is 76 here tonight and a reminder why we are so glad to live here in SWFL. We are so ready to be on vacation, only 2 more days of work. See you all after the Muster Drill!

My night is made! I sure hope it is included on the Royal Princess for my upcoming sailing WEDNESDAY!

Well guys if you have some free time before or after the cruise get over to Wilton Mannors if you've not been, it is the gay district just outside of FLL and there is always something going on. Great bars restaurants, stores, etc. We've both sailed Princess before on the Ruby which was nice and are looking forward to the Royal. The Itinerary really appealed to us as we've only been to Princess Cay and St. Thomas so are looking forward to tall the other ports. Unfortunately the Caribbean is so much the same from island to island so we are hoping these other islands provide a little newness to the Caribbean for us.
Chad will be working early the morning before the cruise and we will not be heading over until the afternoon just a quick 2 hour trip for us. Anyway we will look forward to seeing you all in just a few weeks.
Cheers,
Joshua and Chad.

We are certainly ready... have you all cruised princess before? Anyone on the royal? What are you most looking forward to?

Hello there Peter & Ed and Dick & Frank. Sorry we have been away for so long it is high season at home and work has been life for too long. Ready to get on the ship and enjoy some down time. We don't think we will do any major excursion rather just hop off the ship and make our way around but time will tell. I guess it's time to start looking.

Just a follow up to see if anyone will be joining us on this April cruise...

Just opening a thread for any other in the LGBT family who will be cruising on the Royal Princess with us on April 8th of next year. Hope to meet you all!

I would be very interested in a copy of your list... We are going on a cruise this November for my Mother's 50th Birthday with some friends and family and I think this could be a great experience for us all.
Testing positive in Greece - what happens?
