DogLover Posted April 8, 2020 #1 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Just an update: https://www.mainebiz.biz/article/bar-harbor-extends-cruise-ship-ban-to-july-1 I read that Portland ME currently is banning ships until May 12th, although it's likely to be extended (to be in line with Bar Harbor.)

MEcruzr Posted April 29, 2020 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2020 The Governor said yesterday that the state will not accept cruise ships through August... and possibly beyond. Makes sense when you consider anyone entering Maine has to self quarantine for 14 days (also in effect through August). Day visitors, like cruisers, wouldn't be able to get off the ship.

DogLover Posted April 29, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted April 29, 2020 @MEcruzr Thanks for the update. Obviously our May 28th Celebrity Summit sailing was cancelled, and it appears many others through-out the summer will be as well. We have booked on the Summit September 2021 sailing out of Boston. Hopefully this virus will be a non-issue by then and we'll be able to visit Bar Harbor and Portland ME as planned! Healthy vibes to all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruizinKittie40 Posted May 27, 2020 #4 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Any updates on this or still July 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted May 27, 2020 #5 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I thought it had been extended by the governor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruises to Bar Harbor have been cancelled through August... with the new announcement by Canada that they will be closed to cruise ships until Oct 31 I think it's safe to say that ships won't be headed to New England, either, in Sept and October. https://www.barharbormaine.gov/DocumentCenter/View/922/2020-Cruise-Ship-Schedule?bidId= 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
