kokopelli-az Posted May 29, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2020 We are booked for April 17 2021 on the Empress. It is still showing on our Cruise Planner; however, our Roll Call is now gone from CruiseCritic and when I search for our April 17 cruise on Royal's website, it is not there either. Are we about to receive an email from Royal saying this cruise is cancelled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted May 29, 2020 #2 Share Posted May 29, 2020 The cruise is still showing on RCCL's web site. Nice itinerary, by the way. You should send a message to the CruiseCritic Community about your roll call. Perhaps there were some posts that were against the policies, and it got yanked.

Merion_Mom Posted May 29, 2020 #3 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I have never seen them yank an entire roll call. They may delete certain posts, but not an entire roll call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll tell you this, Mom, with the type of posting I've been seeing lately regarding the whole pandemic situation, it wouldn't surprise me a bit if there was a virtual food fight on one of the roll call thread, and the monitors had to break it up!!

BND Posted May 29, 2020 #8 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Roll calls aren't removed even if a cruise is cancelled or chartered. There have been many, even before covid that have stayed on the roll call even after a change/cancellation, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokopelli-az Posted May 29, 2020 Author #12 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Well, I don't know what to say. I swear that particular date was gone from Royal's website this morning; however, I do see it now, so I guess all is good (I hope). But I do not see the Empress' roll call for April 21 2021. There weren't many posts on it but I don't see it listed..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhapsody of the Seas is already on the chopping block. Empress is about 8 years older -- should have been first in line IMHO. I sailed on Empress and wasn't "impressed" Pun intended. And no dedicated DL to boot. 😜 Edited May 29, 2020 by livingonthebeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1025cruise Posted May 29, 2020 #16 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Have you looked through the roll call board? Not just relying on the "it might work roll call finder"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXA350 Posted May 30, 2020 #17 Share Posted May 30, 2020 In these times it will probably worth it to take ships like Empress and Majesty out of service completely possibly there arecheaper options than Cold layup to have the ships on standby for 2 years or so to keep the optiions up to have it sold, or even consider to have them scraped completely, although this might also not bee so inexpensive. However, anyone booked on Empress or Majesty, not so sure we will see them ever back in the RCL fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
