SarahD112 Posted May 6, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I’m looking for corroboration for a post on a RCCL group Facebook page - frequent cruisers, not official RCCL people. Here’s what someone posted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted May 6, 2020 #2 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Didn’t see any webinars on Tuesday. The regular weekly Wednesday one is today at noon. Are you sure that this wasn’t actually a recap of last weeks webinar. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted May 6, 2020 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2020 If you have read other posts, ... even before carnival made it official you knew Galveston and florida were the only ports carnival allowed you to book in august, the rest couldnt be booked until September. I'd be saying carnival was tipping their hat. Their announcement was exactly as expected. Rcl and carnival probably will follow each other. Rcl has been cancelling in waves of 30 days. If people want to book cruises they know will be cancelled rcl let's them book. Ccl is giving $600 obc to rebook, and cut it off, rcl hasnt. I'd be surprised if rcl wasnt doing what ccl is doing, sending out a few test ships in august. Cdc or someone might stop them, but that's what I think the plan is.

I’m guessing if the info is out there, it will be covered tomorrow for TAs. Will you let us know what’s released? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBE4 Posted May 6, 2020 #6 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Seems like a practical way to restart a cruise line. No mention of social distancing in elevators or eliminating Windjammer. Let the gnashing of teeth begin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just give you a dirty look though, so don't be offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted May 6, 2020 #11 Share Posted May 6, 2020 question on the 25-50% capacity: how do they plan on implementing that? there are those of us who( perhaps foolishly) have PIF our cruises in July and beyond. how many of us stand to be bumped or denied boarding due to these restrictions? where do they draw the line on who gets to sail and who doesn't? I mean are they going to offer huge incentives to cancel and rebook at a later date? are they going to limit all cabins to 2 pax so families are going to have to split up?

Especially since they’ll probably have a new medical questionnaire that will prevent people with an underlying medical condition from boarding.😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stick93 Posted May 6, 2020 #14 Share Posted May 6, 2020 They prob will follow what Carnival is saying and leave from TX and FL starting in August with limited ships and short cruises. They will figure out a way to test everyone and switch over ship between cruises in a different way than we all have done until now. They are itching to get going and start already.

Probably RCL wants all High tiered Crown and Anchors Members to sail first. 😏 Edited May 6, 2020 by Jimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icesk8rReedy Posted May 6, 2020 #19 Share Posted May 6, 2020 From the speculation on the limited capacity, it will only be rooms with a balcony but we will see if that is truly the case. If RCCL does what Carnival has planned, I am on Harmony 8/23 out of Port Canaveral and have a balcony. Hopefully I will be sailing. Neither my husband nor I are afraid to test it. At this point, my positive thinking is running thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, you'll want to maximize revenue per passenger on a money losing cruise while not killing off your most frequent customers. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
