Stew1966 Posted June 10, 2020 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Does anyone have any concrete information on the possibility of my August 16th cruise out of NJ still happening? We already lost out on a cruise in March. Have a November cruise out of Florida planned. Fingers crossed on that 1 as well. Thanks for any information you can provide that is fact and not speculation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawlsagna Posted June 10, 2020 #2 Share Posted June 10, 2020 There aren't any facts about this yet, so all the responses are going to be speculation. Sorry. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep looking at my reservation but haven't seen anything. We had 5 cabins booked and 3 of our group canceled before their final payment was due. My brother and I paid up. While Cruise Critic is a rumor mill, it's still a great resource. There's nothing to do but wait now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Barracuda Posted June 10, 2020 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2020 There is a thread on either the X or Royal board quoting a Port Authority official as saying during recent news conference that there will be no passenger ships sailing from NY / NJ for remainder of year. No official word on PANYNJ web site though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LXA350 Posted June 13, 2020 #17 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Nothing is concrete but very likely no cruises at all out of the US before October or November per current status of both the COVID situation and also the progress cruislines are making to develop their new workflows for cruising as long as COVID 19 will be amongst us.

B-52 Posted June 13, 2020 #18 Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Here in NJ...we still cannot go to restaurants, sporting events or church...New York is worse. Opening the ports is not even on their radar. Whatever the CDC or WHO say, the Port Authority will take it under advisement. Restaurants are going way out of their way to show what they are doing for distancing, etc, to get the Gov's to let them open, with no luck. Cruise ships have not shown or said anything.

Many speculate, many firmly predict and many seem to have had prophesies , but there is no right answer yet. Everyone will have to be patient and go with the flow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted June 13, 2020 #20 Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Nada, not going to happen. Plan on it..............doesn't even matter if port is open or not. The cruiselines don't have a plan in place yet what to do to make people safe on the ships. Next round of cancellations will include all of August cruises I'm sure.

At this time you need to be realistic to yourself, even that it was not yet officially confirmed it is 99.99999% clear that there will be no cruises out any East Coast port and likely all over the US in August.

ThirstyCruiser Posted June 14, 2020 #25 Share Posted June 14, 2020 (edited) Regardless of where you are physically located and how minimal the pandemic's impact to your zip code may be, empathize for a moment with the people of the greater New York City area and what they went thru the last 90 days. Separate yourself from the emotional attachment of it being a cruise, something we do love if you are reading this. Now, what are the chances of a company or government agency blessing 5000+ people gathering in New Your City (Bayonne) for a frivolous activity less than 8 weeks from now? I'll quote Dean Wormer: "Zero.Point.Zero." Edited June 14, 2020 by ThirstyCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
