Guest BigRoger Posted May 14, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Hi folks, I have seen a few people mentioning this particular cruise in posts who are in the same predicament as us. Final payment is looming soon (not sure exactly when but soon).... So I know that its totally uncertain and cancellation etc. is a personal choice but I'd welcome the collective experience and wisdom of posters as to their view regarding whether this is likely going to sail or not.... the reality is Vision OTS would have to come over to Europe for only a few months, most likely struggle for ports to visit and then is scheduled to go back to US first week in September (to Bayonne which may still be closed by that stage). Whats the collective view of probability of this happening folks? Thanks in advance for your inputs. Roger ps we were really looking forward to this one at that time of year.....

rhblake Posted May 14, 2020 #3 Share Posted May 14, 2020 My guess is the cruise will not happen but will not be cancelled my RCCL before our final payment is due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine-O Posted May 14, 2020 #4 Share Posted May 14, 2020 We're booked on this sailing, and final payment is around 7-8 June. I'm holding out until final payment to cancel as I don't think this cruise will be a "go." I'll just take the FCC and apply it toward a future cruise. I'm hoping they will cancel before final payment and giving more FCC than our deposit. I'm definitely not making final payment as it will take too long to get it back when they do cancel. 🍷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwokpot Posted May 15, 2020 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Cruise is not happening. Just take one minute and think it out logically. A TA would be the WORSE type of cruise to start off with when the cruiselines have to determine whether their mitigation plans are effective.

Rare L454S Posted May 15, 2020 #7 Share Posted May 15, 2020 We went ahead and made the final payment with a couple FCC's already in hand. NO, I don't think this sailing will go. I figure RCI has enough of my money for future sailings, and still waiting patiently for more FCC's and refunds for Air2Sea etc. No more money out of pocket.

wvufan Posted May 15, 2020 #8 Share Posted May 15, 2020 We cancelled and will get a FCC in the amount of our deposit Happy Sails to You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigRoger Posted May 15, 2020 #9 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Thanks to all who ventured perspectives.... I suspect we’ll take the approach of making the final payment with FCCs but suspect there’s as much chance of this sailing going as the Bengals winning the Super Bowl........

The travel Italy will open up is between the regions of the country, not international travel. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-52687448?fbclid=IwAR1dmhhtq9ecMJFG5rM1N9UGhkOFDFr-fF8akk_fBxYtpzMkepxoIbgfEvM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
